Dispatches from the Co-Prosperity Sphere: The Long and Winding Weekend

Dispatches from the Co-Prosperity Sphere

You keep whinging because we don't call enough. For heaven's sake, stop! We can't call because we're busy. Just look at what we're doing. Does it look like we have the time to sleep? Eat? Breathe? Let alone communication with the outside world! We're building empires! We're winning hearts and minds! We're forging ahead, confronting our demons, marching victoriously toward a grand and glorious new era! And we're doing it all from the comfort of the backyard hammock.

The Long and Winding Weekend

The weekend was supposedly a day longer. I never felt it.
As I get older, it seems like time isn't just slipping by me. It's running away, faster than I can possibly catch it. Everything takes longer than I anticipate. I stop by the office for an hour, and leave four hours later. I sit down to write for 15 minutes, and an hour later I realize that I haven't started the next chore I was supposed to do. And the only time things stand still is when something bad happens, and the bad thing seems to last forever.
