Upgraded WordPress, Facebook Attack!

At long last, I’ve upgraded wordpress: it was surprisingly painless, since I’d finally figured out how to smooth the process. Well, I’m going to be upgrading much more often now.

Also, I’ve taken to writing stories on-the-fly for various posts on Facebook. I’m thinking about posting them here for posterity, so here’s the first one.

Friend status update: can’t concentrate! 🙁

Me: having to exact revenge does wonders for focus. of course, it might not cause you to focus on what you want, but that’s a small detail

Friend: what?

Me: Your entire extended family dies in a series of accidents at the optometrist’s office: you later learn that a cabal of optometrists has decided your family would play a key role in alleviating the need for optometrists, by eventually expressing genes that could be used to engineer 20/20 eyesight in everyone, thus putting them out of business (Iknow, I’m not good at bio bs). After learning this, a gang of optometrists burst in with overpowered lasik machines and try to kill you too. You immediately go into hiding, building a new identity, tirelessly working to become a martial artist and study that which you hate, optometry, in order to infiltrate the ranks of the optometrists and destroy them from within. You get a degree in optometry in half a year. You slowly move from office to office, an intern at first, then an accepted optometrist, but only during the day: at night, you study and prepare for the final showdown, fighting disgraced optometrists to test yourself. You don’t need sleep; the desire for revenge is too strong within you. You befriend an intern, but he accidentally finds about your pogrom, and you have to lasik him in the back. The police are closing in, but the cabal finally convenes… for the final time. You lock the door behind you, and run: the police are close behind, but they are no match for a properly planned escape route and corrective eye surgeries timed to fail catastrophically at this exact moment. Eventually, you are alone on a roof, sirens fading into the distance, watching the sun rise… what do you do now?

Tomorrow may or may not be productive: I’ll try and get *something* done while celebrating a good friend’s birthday. ?
