What if It Wasn't Like That?

Andi was just thinking about how many of the stories are about how to get out of routine. I kind of like that about it, that it could be a different story. Perhaps there's something intrinsic to the short story form that it's about the search for freedom. You can't do a short story that's just which, everything is routine, yes? But routine is like a good starting place, because it's very economical.
