It’s fiction season. We’re six months into the heavy workload, things are heating up, and we’re about to break. Emphasis on “about to” (we go through this every year, and we never break). But this time of year calls for some good old fantasy fiction.
You might think fantasy fiction is something like The Lord of the Rings, or Harry Potter, but we’ve been more into Lonely Planet and Rough Guides. Seriously, Amazon is going to think we’ve got an addiction to travel guides.
We read about sandy beaches and jungle covered mountains and volcanos and brightly colored birds. It’s better than the Game of Thrones! We are so immersed that we sometimes we forget we’re actually just still here working, which is, of course, the point of escapist fiction. So now you know the explanation when we reply to “jah mon!” to any questions, and you swear you catch a faint hint of steel drums.
