My kingdom for some cake!

I wrote a birthday play! It's a farce. Sadly, no Shakespearean bears. *This time.* 

-Open, interior of office-

Me: [look of concentration as I attempt to do two tasks at once]

Assistant Director & person from IT approach my desk {cue ominous music}

Asst. Director: "Um. I need you to order me a new computer. I think it's coming from that funding source we always use. You know, that one..."

Me: [deer in headlights]

Asst. Director: "You look perplexed."
Me: "I'm kind of working on some things and need to finish them. Is there someone else who may be able to help with this?"
Asst. Director: [looks around, confused] "Maybe (names redacted)?"
Me: [nodding] "Yes. Try them." [Goes back to furiously copying and pasting queries]
Assistant Director approaches other Assistant Director, repeat of above.

-End Scene-

:bows:
