January daze

It's the great void of winter and all I want to do is crawl into bed and watch repeats of The Office and Scrubs. I finished my Walker Percy book, and, after three of his books, am going to give up trying to read more of him. I literally hurled The Moviegoer across the room out of frustration. "This novel explores the modern disease characterized by alienation and ennui." Just what I need on a cold January evening. Calvin and Hobbes, where art thou?

Work is really slow; I'm archiving old projects - a tedious job. "Foods" or famine, as my boss says in his broken English.
