Broken clock, broken dreams 


Broken clock

Remember the clock that I received back in May to commemorate 10 years of service at al.com?

Brian, one of my co-workers, broke it today.

He was moving around wires and computer equipment on the desk next to mine and the wall that separates the desks shook. My Scott Morse sketch of Misty and myself toppled over and hit the clock, knocking it off the shelf and breaking the glass.

Since I was at lunch at the time, I have no choice but to believe Brian's claim that the incident was an "accident."

Lucky for Brian (who just hit his 10-year mark last week), his clock is safely at home.

Maybe in 2018 I'll get a bronze one.
