A list of things that make those shitty days better, to the point where you can walk off and write that short story and make it the most radiant light in your little and exhausted head:
1. Michael, being hyper and bouncing up and down.
2. Lunch with Joanna at the Grad Lounge, and sure I didn't get the salmon steak I wanted but the tuna steak cost me less than it should have.
3. Mike Mignola's Hellboy story, "The Troll-Witch," in The Dark Horse Book of Witchcraft.
4. Joy dropping everything to go on her break and remind me that it could happen to anyone.
5. Michael burning me a disc with Nancy Sinatra's "Bang Bang" on it.
Now let's see if I can make it an entire day without being a sissy.

I hope I didn't add to your stress (I think I get my faux pas... sorry.)

No worry, darling! I'll buy you a drink when next we meet. Even if it's nine in the morning, you're getting THE GIN!
(yes, I'm hyper)
