And there's always those days where you start sending out emails with semicolons at the end of the sentences. Yesterday I even caught myself writing code on a piece of napkin on my lunch. I'm afraid the day will finally come where I start trying to rearrange all of my paragraphs into a single sentence. I mean sure, noone will know what the hell I'm talking about, but look how efficient my speech has become! HELP ME!!!
