    Well, my dear fellow lit-netters must excuse my slightly brief abscence of about a week. I have been under the most terrifying conditions (TERRIFYING) as little alien rodents have invaded my throat upon my completion of viewing Sergi Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin. They say that they're here to stay and do not wish to leave. I can hear them screetch every time I breath in my sleep. They are the ones who have been writing all of the minimalist viginettes appearing on this blog. I told them no, ...

  4. Santa Claus for a Day

    Santa Claus for a Day

    I got to be Santa Claus at work these two days on returning after a two week vacation. Not literally Santa Claus, but I did give out awards to my team members, a framed certificate and the promise of a small monetary amount in their paycheck. This is the first time I actually gave out awards to people.
