Italics

This morning I woke up bleary after a sleepless night and thought: I'm in italics.
Don't ask me. It's a half-asleep editor thing.
I remained in italics for half an hour, until my girlfriend woke up. She decided that since I was in italics I couldn't be trusted to make a pot of tea. She's an editor, too. She understood.
By the time my cup of tea arrived I was back to Times Roman Normal.
