I miss writing in this. a lot
I think about occum everyday and wonder how I'll ever get started again, and what kind of images I'll use and all the keen things I say when my mind, you know, wants to. Like maybe on each break I'll just write about the pet names and sexist remarks I get for being strong or smart at one instant or another. It's funny when men are suprized at women. Something like a universe to them, no, how about just a magazine that opens to a page for them, they begin to like it, then it closes, the way universes do. Never occurning to them that the page is still there, that the universe still spins without their compliment. Which is fine, I expect I won't be getting much farther with them, if they see me just as this, so I am better without. And I am careful with complements because of this. This is all a generalization of course, but this is my 30 minute break, I don't have time to argue.
Meanwhile my head is spinning from too much coffee, and thoughts of dizzying snowflakes. This is the work I do and I love it when the CAD drawings match up to the fraction of a two story MegaTRON, which hangs suspended from four cables.
I am very happy to be posting this today.
