Karen: Wow, I just checked in several times tonight -- do you stay on camera all evening long? What are you doing
me: answering a journalist's questions on a private message
me: sometimes they show up here and interview me
Karen: Well, your haircut does look a little better to me this evening.
me: everyone likes it
Karen: But do you think it's a good idea to just sit there while people get the scope out of your apt?
Karen: Especially in light of the phone message you got today?
me: yes
Karen: Are you working or just playing games
me: did you see this Rick Perry ad?
me: I'm working
Karen: Are you writing the book?
me: researching, mostly
Karen: OK, well it just looks weird, as if you're bored, letting people watch you be bored?
Karen: I would think you'd want to turn off the camera, get in bed with some hot chocolate and your laptop to research instead of people making random comments
me: go read a book
Karen: Well, nighty night love you.
me: love you too
Karen: Call when you get up, your apt will probably be cold if electricity/heater is off?
me: night
Karen: dont forget you have that flashlight for tomorrow if it's dark
me: k, thanks
