So it’s Working Wednesday, but so much more because this is also the day we remember the glorious Terry Pratchett and the fabulous Douglas Adams. These two brilliant men created amazing worlds–Discworld and the Hitchhiker’s Galaxy (Guide to)–and unforgettable characters, so when you’re ready to take a break from working, these are your guys. You can read them, listen to them, and even watch them since movies were made from their work. If you haven’t read them, you must, if only so you know why you must carry your towel and wear the lilac today.

Remember, no matter what your job is, it’s not as bad as Moist Von Lipwig’s

And if you’re feeling down, don’t worry, Marvin feels worse about his job than you do.

And of course, the end of the world. Maybe.

What was your work like this week?
