This was not the best of all possible days. But it had its moments.

No Reward, Other Than the Satisfaction of Doing the Wrong Thing

I lost my to do list somewhere downtown (I think). Should you find it, please pass it along to me at your earliest convenience. Ignore the items remaining to be checked off, including “Collect basement wives (Asian blondes?)” and “Activate skull-fornicating android army.”
