Living a Life I Don't Know How to Live

There was just a gunshot from somewhere to the east of my apartment building. I believe I may have reached the manic stage I like to call Will Not Survive a Horror Movie because my first thought was to go investigate the noise! It's dark out! And cloudy! And cold!

I'm writing an outline for entertainment law (or, well, my half of it, a friend wrote the first half) but I think I'm going to take a break and go play a computer game. I'm thinking Civ4.

The Future of the Internet and How to Stop It, Jonathan Zittrain, p. 34.
