<p>I laughed and bumped my shoulder against Hanne&rsquo;s. &ldquo;A sales pitch?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Yeah,&rdquo; she said, leaning briefly against me as we walked. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m in the market for a new year. Sell me the 2399 model. I&rsquo;ve got a wide variety to choose from, so tell me why you decided to live through this one.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;You&rsquo;re a nerd. You realize that, right?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Tell me why I should be a nerd in the year 275. Next year we can decide on 276.“</p>
<p>I scuffed my heel against the pavement of the street. New Year&rsquo;s Eve, and everyone was still inside. Bars: full. Restaurants: packed. There were a few scattered couples or groups around, but they were all walking with purpose. Champagne called. Canapes. Crudites.</p>

<p>I scuffed my heel against the pavement of the street. New Year&rsquo;s Eve, and everyone was still inside. Bars: full. Restaurants: packed. There were a few scattered couples or groups around, but they were all walking with purpose. Champagne called. Canapes. Crudités.</p>
<p>And there we were, Reed and Hanne, arm in arm, strolling leisurely down the street, heedless of the passersby, to celebrate the last day of 2399, systime 275+365. Many, still lingering on the calendar still used phys-side, were doubtlessly partying extra-hard to celebrate the turn of a century.</p>
<p>&ldquo;If you&rsquo;re looking for the utmost in luxury, then it&rsquo;s really hard to go wrong with 2399. The ride was just about as smooth as could be.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;How about comfort?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Oh, very comfortable. Cushy, even,&rdquo; I said, poking myself in the belly.</p>

<p>Hanne laughed. &ldquo;Cute. How about the exterior?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;No clue. It&rsquo;s been a long, long time since I&rsquo;ve had any reason to pay attention to the world outside. I imagine it looks just as confusing as it anyways has.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, okay, fair enough. You&rsquo;ve been here longer than I have.&rdquo;</p>

<p>I laughed. &ldquo;Got it in one.&rdquo;</p>
