Dec 31 03: zen moment
I’ve been trying to clean up my desk before tomorrow night’s New Year’s wingding. (Yes, really.) Amongst the clippings and junk mail and reciepts and ‘missing’ CDs and dormant wristwatches and unused Post-It Notes(tm) and spare swimsuits and unanswered pleas for money to good causes and catalogs and souvenirs of distant places and books that need returning to friends and photographs and bills that have been paid and need filing and pamphlets for bookbindery classes and articles that must be read: something that I once clipped from a manuscript I was editing, back during my first tenure as a fixer of textbooks. It used to hang above my desk. I may yet have it framed. I present it without further comment.
