Bad techno music
I'm in the office — one of Tellme's large, open-plan offices, able to seat the entire engineering department — and someone is playing really awful techno music through speakers while they work.
This is really not pleasing to me.
On the other hand, perhaps I shouldn't be at work at 8pm?

Things to remember
I was just sitting here, remembering once eating a sandwich — in San Francisco, late at night, after an evening out — when I realised how utterly wonderful it is to make memories: to have them to remember, to allude to; perhaps to forget them.
Even better, though, to collect memories together, with all of their older brethren there to augment your clumsy words; better, too, to remember together.
I've quoted it before, but I'll do it again:
“We'll collect the moments one by one /
I guess that's how the future's done”
“Chienne Française”

Terrifying word of the day
- Horridor
- A mash-up* of (of course) ‘horror’ and ‘corridor’, I imagine a horridor to be a twisting, Satanic passageway into nightmare. Perhaps it is furnished in the scorched bones of the damned, with blood dripping and pooling on the floor. Or maybe something less clichéd….
Update: m4d pr0p5 to Elaina for engaging in developmental dialogue that was instrumental in rounding out this concept. Thanks, dove!
