Smoking While Proofing, Er, Writing

My friend Karen posted this cartoon the other day. I was amused.

It’s probably just as well we no longer live in the culture depicted here, though. The way things have been going at the office the past couple of weeks, my ashtray would be overflowing, my bottom desk-drawer full of empties, and my vision blurry from drink. It’s blurry now, but that would be from working until 10:30 last night and coming back in first thing this morning. Alas.
