You know, it's uncanny, the way you check your email. I think it must be a secondary mutation.
As I said, you should forget I said anything. I think it's these bloody painkillers they've given me, they make me feel a bit blurred around the edges -- the only good thing is that I lose the occasional periods of agony.
I'm not sure which is worse, agony or melodrama. I think I'm just going to stop taking the pills. Headaches I can handle.
It's not so much the science and the math. That stuff translates over. But you know, honestly, it doesn't matter. What, like I'm going to go on to college or something? I have a better chance at taking over South America (and that would be much more profitable). So don't worry about it.
