Closed Captions in the House

Today I am looking very Mirkwood Elf from 1994. I have not written much because I have been overwhelmingly busy. It's mostly stuff that is good and non-stressful; it just takes up time. I like my new job for a number of reasons. It is reasonable to assume that I will get tired of it eventually, but I don't see how. I am helping deaf people watch the news. How badass is that? It cuts straight to my idealism.

Also, there is a hot chocolate machine, as there should be at any properly adult place of business.

Possibly my favorite thing is that all of the clocks in the office are on eastern time, so that we can synch up with the coast. This means that when I get to work, it is already as though I have worked for an hour, and when I leave, it is an hour earlier than when I left. I am a frickin' time traveler. I am a time-traveling cyborg zombie pirate newsman.

See you say Elf and I think Smegolas but now I can't remember the name of your half-elf.... *THINKTHINKTHINK*

Liam? Maybe? I mostly remember that he wore purple.

LOL, actually, on my way back home today Ari said 'bard' and I yelled "LIAM". So yes I think that's it.

So you're saying that you're from a future wherein you're losing touch with your humanity because you can't understand why you're inordinately fond of the living who hunt you across the seas of time to punish you for hoarding treasure and then bragging dispassionately about it in a silken basso profundo?

Rough.

It is rough. It's isolating.
