Right now I am in the hospital library’s computer lab, killing some time between meetings. There are two young residents in here helplessly trying to book airline flights on the internet, and I think they know I’m laughing at them.

One is using a computer that I used earlier in the day, and he is pulling up the browser’s history. Now he’s laughing and reading a URL to the other one: “hey, check this out…someone went to a website called doesthisblogmakemybuttlookbig!”

Oh shit. And now they’re trying to print their reservation confirmations, and the printer won’t work. If they see the words “information technology” on my ID badge, I am screwed because they will ask me to fix the printer, which of course I don’t know how to do. Runaway, runaway….
