Francine feels bad about telling Jake that she couldn't see him today, but the relationship has been moving so fast and going so well that, ironically, she's freaking out a bit. Plus she's been neglecting her blog, which used to be the center of her life just a couple of weeks ago. Today, she plans on catching up. She sits in front of her computer and thumbs through a poetry chapbook that she picked up at the Meet The Nutjobs indie publishing conference. It is filled with incomprehensible poems such as the following:

Almost no one reads this kind of stuff anyway. It's like hiding in plain sight." She'll have to contact Evil Journalista and see if he knows about any black ops like this.
Now if only she could figure out the code called love. Francine sighs, and turns the page to another piece of gibberish, still more understandable than the emotions in her heart.
