Chevron Sixteen

HA! Now I know this place is screwing with me. Not that I didn't think it before, what with the whole "suddenly appearing with no memories and no idea who or where I am and a vague sense of deja vu" thing. I finally started looking through things in this apartment I'm staying in since, hey, nobody's come to claim it, so I assume it's mine. But I found some papers and documents with my smiling mug right on them saying my name is Meredith.

Who in their right mind would name their son Meredith, I ask?

It's always good to be prepared for the worst. Hope for the best, sure, but I'm not that optimistic, myself. Expect for the worst, and plan accordingly.

[allthezpms]

I think I could grow to appreciate this mindset.

[animator]

Just seems most efficient, doesn't it?

[allthezpms]

It's better than saying "things couldn't get worse", thus cursing them to actually GET worse.

[animator]

That's just asking to have your ass handed to you, really.

"The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism by those who haven't got it." That quote is taped above my desk... if it is my desk... so I think it's safe to assume I have lived my life very cautiously. If this is my apartment.

[animator]

I like that.

Hey, if you woke up there, safe to assume it's your apartment, right?

[allthezpms]

Yeah, that and nobody else has come to claim it, and I do have a lot of stuff with my name and face all over it. Nothing actually helpful, of course.

[animator]

What is your name, anyway? I'm Anita.

[allthezpms]

I guess I'll have to go with Meredith, til I find something better.

[animator]

I know you mentioned it earlier, but I was kind of hoping, for your sake, that was a false alarm.

[allthezpms]

Me, too. I'll try to find or think of something better, though.
