Today at work I discussed with a twin how she would name her baby only once she saw it. That way she could name the baby appropriately based on what the baby looked like. I suggested the name ‘Baby’ for the baby, since the baby would look like a Baby. She found that amusing but thought the baby may look like something else. I then suggested that people named ‘Tod’ must have looked like toddlers when they were born, to which I received less of a response. My own name is Adam, but sometimes my family calls me ‘Ad’. This could be because when I was a baby I looked like an ADult (though I doubt this. Even now I don’t look like an adult.)
The twin doesn’t work because she is having a baby. Lucky. I would give birth to have a few weeks off of work. At work, I haven’t been able to get the song from Groundhog Day out of my head so I sing it at my desk. ‘…why couldn’t I have had that day.’ Eventually I left at 7:30 pm.
I wish I could have a zipline installed from my office window to my apartment building. It sounds crazy, but that might be a selling point for me for whether I would leave my job or not, ‘hmmmm…..this job has better benefits, but my current job has a zipline to my apartment….hmmmm….’

i employ this technique when naming objects: my first car, Jordyn-Wade; my second car, Borgwald Gordon; and my first cell phone, Wally. judging by these i hope it looks like all my children will automatically become Zappas.

Today many jobs don’t need a wormhole but offer the option to work from home -since we’re always connected anyway.
the benefit is you never have to dress, shower or clean up after yourself.
You can eat leftovers, recycle toiletpaper, no laundry, no metro card…
the list is endless.
AD is short for ADHD, which wasn’t completely identified in the 70’s.
