*sigh*
Somewhere around 7:00 Pacific time:
me: Sarah!
me: Donde estas?
me: *sigh*
me: No Sarah…
me: Where has she gone?
me: Did the shrimp take her as she dozed at her keyboard?
me: Are fellow researches embarking on a new project, that of seeing how long she can survive without internet?
me: Did her brain implode when trying with all her might to summon flying llamas to entertain her in the far-off void of Puerto Rico?
me: Did she wander too deeply into a book, and now can't find her way out of the intricate world of shrimp-studying research papers?
me: Or perhaps she simply got carried away by a chariot of fire, and when her disciple saw her carried off thus she shouted out "My Sarah, my Sarah, the chariot of Science, and the propulsion system thereof!"
me: When will I next see my darling Sarah? Will it be after she fights off the Emperor of all Shrimp-kind and crawls her way back to the research station? Will it be after the researches realize that she can withstand their tortures indefinitely, and that her designs of retribution are indeed potent? Or will she return after her bosom scientist-friend performs some arcane ritual to restore her brain and her body to their former glory? Might I need wait till the book itself decomposes and the terms of shrimp-anatomy themselves fall into illegibility? Or will I not see the lovely Sarah until I finally mount that final obstacle and enter the gates of Heaven….
I miss Sarah
