The minutiae of my life, in great compelling detail

1. I've rediscovered point-and-click games - needed something that wouldn't needlessly abuse my 'z' and 'x' buttons on the keyboard. (thanks shu!) Of course, I still need walkthroughs, but am proud to say that I only need them as the occasional reference? Currently am working through Submachines....

Today I was hit with a "shock and awe." I mean, I thought I was pretty numb from the way things have been. I just spent...
