negative exponents

Let the graph speak for itself.

KEY:
Point 2:59 pm = Josh comes to visit.
Point Incident A = realization of critical misinformation and daunting consequences for next week.
Point Incident B = wake-up call to petty and annoying realities of the working world and people, general.
Negative slope y = x^-3 already a given from the day's beginning due to:
- unbearable allergies;
- no promise of dinner;
- the thought of uncomfortably sleeping over school with a whole bunch of middle school munchkins running around me.

This is retarded. I'm getting dinner.
