Well I've finally restored the Environment to a baseline level of acceptability ("the national animal is the Pixie, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests").

Taxation has been reduced below the targets of 20% from the 40s.

However, the Pizza Delivery Sector has fallen 5,000 points and now the nation is stuck in worldwide 3rd place for the foreseeable future. The peak was months ago at 51,000 when the nation was close to overtaking the 2nd place contender.

It's going to take months and months and months to recalibrate everything. In the meantime, from my experiments, it appears that further suppression of political freedoms may be the surest way to fire up the Pizza Delivery stats. Many of the older tricks are now backfiring due to the introduction of other variables into the mix.

I scrolled through the messages quickly and my mind somehow merged those two words together since they are on-line with each other on the screen.

In other words... I thought you wrote "demonic fucking". :P

Anyway, how you doing? ^^

I too am finding working from home more difficult than in the office. I also find I get up and walk around more talking to people in the office. And even having those short conversations is helpful to both sanity and getting the job done.

Same, but with studies.

The problem is that while I am able to do things at my own pace, which I am trying my best at, the problem begins when you are no longer in the classroom and sending emails to the profs (they're not allowed to meet students) is not exactly the best of ways to get things clarified and answered.

The pacing is on your own, but the school still marches on with the same clock in terms of assignments.
