Excerpt
You wake up from a dream in which you are back in school, attending for the first time a design class you forgot you signed up for. You wake up and realize that, while you are saved from telling the teacher what a loser you are, you are running late on a Monday morning (which is status meeting morning) because you neglected to set the alarm the night before, because before you went to bed you were busy screaming through the ceiling at your upstairs neighbors, who can’t seem to understand that some people use beds for sleeping.
