Space and time are never exact on the undead.

Yup. I was sitting there with two laptops open on the page, both set to PDT timezone, and one was giving me posting times in PDT, the other EDT.

Maybe they were offering me a choice. Not sure how I wound up with jetlag when I hadn't even left my home timezone on this trip. My surmise is that it must be a factor of time spent "behind" Security in airports and aboard airline seats.

Or you experienced an alien abduction at some point in the proceedings. I like your surmisal better. ;)

Either that, or there’s a break in space and time somewhere. I am writing a story now where that happens.

If so, it's highly correlated with "time spent 'behind' Security in airports and aboard airline seats." *\;-)

I am painfully aware of the fact. My current corporate laptop is my first to have the mouse's USB port on the right side of the laptop.

Hmmm... but I get you. The EDT laptop is left-handed. Hmmm... (the divergence of the curl....)

I had been thinking the same thing, but along the lines of distortion due to EM radiation from the airport security devices. Compared to that, alien abduction is more likely. ;)

Oh, good. For a second, I was afraid that they had gained literacy. ;)

Wow. That only encourages most posters.

Hmm. Isn’t a poster a thing you put on the wall in your room when your a teenager. I don’t have a cat. I’ll sort my socks.

We suspected our late Agnes could read, but the current batch of catz doesn't even like to sleep on books.

I went to my friend’s house for the afternoon and evening, had dinner, watched TV, and came home. It was too late to do any more than go to bed.

The Mumsy is leaving the 17th to go back to Boston, and I try to spend as much time with her as I can, taking her where she needs to go, and helping her with things she doesn’t understand.

Like, I’m good at that, right? (NOT!) But she’s getting frail and is subject to mood swings, and her son often has a hard time dealing with the fact that she is aging.

I just try to fill in the gaps.
