grounded's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- buy me And so tomorrow begins a new journey, toward what, I don't know, though there's writing on the wall. It will be cold and dark, and hats and mittens will be necessary. I'm somewhat assured by: A) knowing that I'm close enough to the ground that to fall hard I have to be lifted up first, and who would pick me up just to let me fall farther? I know the answer, but it's supposed to be a rhetorical question. B) I'm also assured by knowing that laying unseen at the end of each tunnel at the fork is a particular brightness. I can see it only in my mind's eye. C) It's time to downgrade certain features of the automobile, making them easier to pay for should anything go wrong, or the mechanic I know move away. My wallet will feel less pressured. A further lesson to be learned is that even people who insist on being just a passenger can direct where the car goes, even if they can appear (feel?) less accountable. There should be drunk passengering laws. 2:00 a.m. - 2001-12-31 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
