Then I was A Year Older
And at work. Since 0400. It's that kind of day in Indy. If this was a starship, the engines would be moaning, the lights would be blinking, and we'd be well outside normal reality. That last may have genuinely been achieved this morning.

Feels that way. A professional peer described my employer's attitude towards my doing any side work as "they treat you like a field hand." Or, in fact, a surly Morlock; the company I work for made their big bucks in the newspaper business and as far as they are concerned, all technical employees are just like their notion of pressmen: a bizarre, grimy, incomprehensible underclass with no real intellect or understanding of the big picture.

Oh well, the pay is still pretty good.
