I'm trapped in work due to the onslaught Inclemency '09 on Park West. It's taking its toll on spirits here, though some of the stronger-willed among us have started to bond in adversity. We are plotting an escape, but it won't be easy and might involve opening a portal to a different city at a different time.
 
do you have enough biscuits in the kitchen to see you through the night?

I have biscuits in my drawer. Rich Tea. They can stave off hunger only for so long. I have no change to buy crisps from the vending machine. It flaunts its tasty varieties of Hunky Dorys at me like a pimp, but alas I am a poor peasant boy on its turf, reduced to rags and unable to pay.
I have only the charity of tea for comfort, and this absurd connection with the outside world, where people can hear my cries in the night sky like a shook up ol' powder box, but are powerless to physically intervene.
:(
I'm a little scared.
 
At least it's produced some of my finest prose.
The thing you really get a sense of at times like these is just how boring all the waiting around is. Sure, you could edit the experience into a fairly rollicking half hour of highlights, but to actually live through the hint of faraway chats, the clicking of the keyboard, the lack of anything to say to anyone - well, it's shite.

its all very Joycian (sp?) moods!
great song writing material.
have you thought about leaving and chancing it?
it's not going to get any better at this stage?
 
I might stay here 'til morning. Sure, the traffic is kind of clearing up at the moment, but what would I do at this stage anyway?
 
Surely he'd be a Paper Man? Where is the snow element? No, it just won't do, rita.
ok, maybe you have a point there. i was going to suggest cutting paper into the shape of snowflakes and making one out of those, but i fear you'll just stomp on this plan too.

what about a riddle?

If the electric train is going north, which direction is the steam blowing?
