YES! Finally, exams are over! Now I can finally spend some time relaxing without some assignment or test hanging over my --

...Huh? Oh, hey, I have mail today.

I've had one since I got here, myself. It's pretty easy, really! And you get some spending money out of it.

[normal_anomaly]

The problem here is that I'm not a morning person.

[perfektsymmetry]

Oh. I'm sort of an… all-day person so I never really thought about it. Hmm. Well, you could wake up, do it, and go back to bed… or, pay someone else to do it. Not sure if that would get you droned or not, but as long as it gets done you should be okay.

If you want, we can do ours together. Might be easier if you have some company.

[normal_anomaly]

Paying someone to do my job kind of defeats the purpose of having it, though.

Anyway, I'll...see what my route is like first. If I can't handle it, I may take you up on that offer.

[perfektsymmetry]

Sure thing! The good news is that the drones tip surprisingly well.

[normal_anomaly]

...How well are we talking about?

[perfektsymmetry]

As long as you're pleasant back to them, fairly well! I've made a decent amount of money since I got here, but I guess I really don't have much to spend it on anyway.

[normal_anomaly]

When you say you have a "decent amount," do you think you'd have enough to buy a car?

[perfektsymmetry]

O-oh, I doubt that. That would take awhile to save up for. But then again I don't know how much cars in the 1950s cost.

…do you really want to buy a car? Where would you take it…?

[normal_anomaly]

Well, I still have a lot of money saved up from the part-time job I had last summer. And having a car beats having to take the bus to school.

[perfektsymmetry]

Worth looking into, at least. Maybe you could afford a used one. I take my bike everywhere, I hadn't really even thought about a car… then again, I haven't learned to drive yet. I imagine even Mayfield would want me to take my license test.

[normal_anomaly]

Yeah, I didn't know how to drive when I came here, either, but I was able to pass the test. It was a lot easier than I thought. Really, the hardest part about learning to drive was forcing myself to stay on the right side of the road. I come from Japan, where people drive on the left.

[perfektsymmetry]

Hmmm. I wonder if my "dad" would let me borrow the car to learn. Could be fun!
