Well, they're rearranging my section at work. Religion and psychology has now officially crowded out Politics & Government from the middle section, so I spent today and yesterday helping my team leader shift everything in my satellite region over to make room for the refugees.

I missed just enough sleep Monday night to feel so exhausted I was sick Tuesday. So I took a short nap that afternoon: only about three or four hours.

Bring one or two packages of facial tissues with you. You'll be glad you did.

So inspired was I that I had to pace through my house, outlining various mechanics and features the genre provided opportunity for, until I was calm enough to sit down again. Right now, the project is cryptically titled KotJG. It is possible that one day, the design and programming all mapped out, I will need to call upon my friends to lend a helping hand--or, shall we say, a helping voice? Until then, I can only say:

Neener, neener, neener! I've got a secret project and you don't!
