1983 Journal: Jan 26-28
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Wed, 02/13/2008 - 20:28January 26, 1983: Feeling particularly romantic today. Again, very tired. Polished up documentation at work and learned more about security. Didn’t read today except the paper. Not feeling much like writing
January 27, 1983: Letter from Mom, investigating Omegamon etc. at work. Health food. Perhaps more important as Karmic massage oil. Towel hanging next to print of St Peter reflected in mirror. Not much reading today. I think I’ll read other than Tolstoy. Old glasses frame dig in behind ears.
January 28, 1983: Shining lips, shining eyes. (“Shining as she reeled him in”). Juror on a case about a con-man. (17 convictions) who pretended to be South African questions perceptions, like a philosopher on the jury. It’s rough living in a meet-eating world. We only perceive what people allow us to perceive (including ourselves?) Late for meetings. It is frustrating to see an artist put everything possible into a work and see others glance, perhaps even enjoy immensely, and move on.
Rain, work, and no profound thoughts
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Wed, 02/13/2008 - 20:17It’s been a busy day, driving through rain and slush, talking with an old friend about the importance of decentralized grassroots political action, working with a new Drupal 6.0 installation, and at the end of the day, catching up on emails and twitters. I’ve not been connected to Twitter or Second Life all day, nor have I looked at any emails since early this morning. Somehow, I feel a bit disconnected from the conversations, and don’t feel like I have much to say. If I wasn’t trying to write something every day, I this is a day I could easily have skipped.
