but today
bless you, fay. the rain has set in and the daylight is dim and the constant white noise of the water falling is making all things green...

the lazy fox

clocks unwinding.
the process of time is a movement through space. i’m always surprised at where i am in comparison to a year ago, or 5 or 20; i have been moving through space whether inert or in motion. my body shows the signs of this space travel, and my mind has catalogued the journey. the faster i travel, the more time should slow down, and lethargy should kill me off rapidly. how do you enact this sort...

waiting in line today for late registration at ABT stole a little bit of my life… maybe just a few years. i got to see my name come up on the tv. i felt famous. i am going down the networking and information systems security path for now, but at some point i’ll have to decide networking or I.S.S. as an A.A.S.
