Excerpt:
On her way back to her cubicle, she called to her nearest neighbor. He didn\\u2019t answer. She walked over, leaned against his cubicle and called his name again. He kept working.

You too? she wondered. The silent treatment? For being late?

Audrey sighed. It was going to be a long day. She re-turned to her cubicle and reached for the mug on her desk. The handle was freezing. Her hand recoiled instinctively, then reached back. It was also, it seemed, going to be one of those days when every little thing would be hard.

What\\u2019s the Word (that inspired the story)?
None. I wrote this when daylight savings was about to start and was frustrated about losing an hour and decided to attempt a \\u201cridiculous and unoriginal\\u201d story.

Episode Art Description: Digital drawing. A sphere set on a stand that\\u2019s lying on a table top. The sphere bears a pattern that looks like several atomic orbitals intersecting and jagged lines moving from edge to center. The stand bears on its front a colorful version of the intersecting orbitals pattern. The horizontal rectangular image is made square by adding a textured pattern of the sphere design in borders at top and bottom.
