REALITY: And Its Avoidance

Posted on November 6, 2004 by Susan

Not my usual upbeat bouncy self today.  This is complete sarcasm, since anyone who knows me or has crossed my path has surely seen that morose to morbidly depressed is more my normal style.  Always has been, but I’ve still … Continue reading → Continue reading →

Posted on November 5, 2004 by Susan

REALITY & WRITING: Cubicle Man II

Posted on November 3, 2004 by Susan

He sits there like a hard boiled egg, undistinguished from the raw recruits with whom he shares partitioned space encompassing his own. His insides are solidified, formed and rigid to the rigors of the waiting game of time and choice … Continue reading → Continue reading →

REALITY: Selection Day

Posted on November 3, 2004 by Susan

I had this fantasy the other day–no months, to tell the truth and honesty is what it’s all about–to save the world beyond the me, though trickle down effects would serve my ass as well. To put the mind above … Continue reading → Continue reading →

REALITY: Learning

Posted on November 3, 2004 by Susan

Very interesting lesson learned today; learning lessons from learning lessons. Frustrating; to learn something that would have made something easier, better, more efficient, better structured, but learning it a day or two after a decision has been made, a project … Continue reading → Continue reading →

REALITY: Nature/Natural

Posted on November 3, 2004 by Susan

Should have worn the clogs; they’d have made me taller, yes, but more, they’d have added needed weight on this wondrous windy day that makes the flags sing in patriotic glory of democracy. The tribe has spoken, so to speak, … Continue reading → Continue reading →

NEW MEDIA & REALITY: Transitions

Posted on November 2, 2004 by Susan

This post may ramble a bit in a disorganized fashion, but it is because I’m in the midst of brain sparks but I’m also tired and want to go to bed but don’t want to lose the thought. It may … Continue reading → Continue reading →

TECHNOLOGY: CAS -The Computer Aided Student

Posted on October 31, 2004 by Susan

Today has been a sit-down day. Fingers working with the mind. The mind on many paths. Software is the vehicle that bounces me along. Today, I have used: Minitab, Powerpoint, Word, Adobe Photo Deluxe, Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer, Outlook Express, … Continue reading → Continue reading →

REALITY & NEW MEDIA: Late Autumn Morning

Posted on October 30, 2004 by Susan

The beauty of pink misty morning. Leaves heavy with rain fall with wet slooshy sounds that tell of their youth in lack of crisp dryness. Cawing of crows suit the mood, fulfilling the audio element of story. Stillness? No, movement; … Continue reading → Continue reading →

NEW MEDIA: It’s Not MacDonalds’s

Posted on October 30, 2004 by Susan

Yes, I know; I’ve been going on and on about the New Media course I’m taking–would your rather hear about Statistics? I am evidently a person of the moment, wolfing down what is served at the dinner table, embracing the … Continue reading → Continue reading →

NEW MEDIA: Time/Space – The paths within

Posted on October 29, 2004 by Susan

New dryer works no better than the old; still finishes its own life cycle hours, sometimes days, sooner than I’m ready to take the clothes out. The propane heater in the frameshop went out; petulant because I shoved a chair … Continue reading → Continue reading →

REALITY & BLOGGING: Time Element

Posted on October 29, 2004 by Susan

REALITY: Shakespearean Style

Posted on October 28, 2004 by Susan

“And this above all, to thine own self be true…” But when the window that shows one clearly to oneself reveals the dullness beyond the panes, Windex doesn’t help as the clouded image truly lies without the borders of the … Continue reading → Continue reading →

WRITING: Lack of Output

Posted on October 27, 2004 by Susan

The morning no longer inspires. It is faced wearily, with a cold cup of coffee, a cigarette ground out before its time. The mind crushed as easily as the slim reed; the spirit circling like smoke for but a moment … Continue reading → Continue reading →
