I think this is the proper time to use the "lethargic" mood selector. I'm back in Chicago and feeling rather out of it about the whole time, space and deadlines thing. There's this doofy PowerPoint I have to put together for tomorrow, and my partner hasn't indicated that he's done his half of it. I still have a ton of transcribing to do, and further interviews to set up, probably. I really just want to lie around and keysmash about the Animorphs and roll around in all my Joe Armstrong feelings. So, like any other night, I guess? But with extra lethargy.
