SELECTED OTHER WORK

déjà WHO TWO

Thursday Sept. 27, 2018

Two things. The same, yet they aren’t.

Just two things, first one. Then the other.

The first: phone call from someone ‘past’ suddenly had me ‘in the moment/present’. Mind and memory in that past place, space – where we were, where they were, where we all were – moments in time travel. Not frozen, yet currently displayed in our ‘what if?’ lives. In our minds like a big screen version of something happening now …

Second: someone sent a ‘drunken e-note’ the other day. That it came in at 11:16PM should give a clue that she’s easily tipsy or old, or both. Both. Anyway it was funny to read in the morning, not so much for nature of the note but for the grammar/spelling/typos from someone normally fastidious about such things. I laughed out loud – I scared Gusta.
