Dusk

Is it just me or have we slid into autumn this past couple of days? It definitely feels cooler and the days seem shorter.

It was a long day for poor Andy though, who finally got home from work at 9.30 only to have to dial straight back in. He's muttering away about mainframes, SLAs etc next door. I tend to let him mutter as I'm not too good with IT.

When he says stuff like "the mainframe toppled" I have visions of weedy IT guys trying to pick it back up, and I never can keep a straight face when he talks about pinging the server. It prompts me to shout "Ping the pong!" every time he's having a work-related crisis, which I alone find hilarious.
