Ugh. It's 7:30 in the morning, and I'm going to be on a plane to San Diego in less than 24 hours. But first I have to sit through about seven hours of grad classes, probably write a research paper, and then write my latest column for Scryptic.

Blargh. If I were Warren Ellis, I would insist that someone run out and buy me a pack of cigarette and some whisky. But I'm not, so I think I'll go take a shower.

If anyone needs to get a hold of me while I'm in SD, please email my "road" email address:
