It's been a long time since my last post. Oh well.
I tuned in to NPR on my phone this morning, and on a program called "Tech Nation" hosted by some NPR woman who called herself a mathematician and an engineer, she was interviewing Walter Isaacson, author of "Leonardo da Vinci" - a book I had already heard about from Dr. Joseph Pruitt.
I am tempted to buy the book, for me, for George Makrides, for my kids, for my grandkids, for David.
But no. I will not read it, I think. I have so MANY unread books.
*sigh*
I'm neither INSIDE the box, nor OUTSIDE the box. I don't fit anywhere. But why must I "fit" somewhere??????
I need not. I can float here in INBETWEENLAND.
Walter Isaacson describes Leonardo da Vinci as a misfit, who was insanely curious. I thought as I heard that that I too, used to be curious, and that someone in my childhood must have stomped it out at an early age. Perhaps, perhaps not.
Perhaps I was just naturally never THAT curious.
I recall talking to people my age when I was in high school. Girls I met (and pseudo-dated) would say things like "I never knew boys thought of those things."
So...... so what.
Isaacson says I should be writing pen on paper, rather than typing here. But I have too much paper in my life already. So I'm going to type here.
I think George Makrides is a modern-day Leonardo da Vinci, in that he loves to draw shapes and color them, or leave them black/white..... but he's an artist. I don't know what he was like pre-fibromyalgia, but now, he's a creative, da Vinci type person.
I wish people around him would let him live more fully.
and then there's the David Deal.
What I thought this morning was that I must move on with my life, in ways that I would move on with or without the David Deal in my life.
I do not understand WHY this deal has not moved ahead. It's one of the most frustrating things I've EVER experienced.
I've destribed it all in other posts. So I won't detail it again here. But it's WHAT I WANT, at 67 years of age. It's WHAT I NEED now in my life.
It has been as good a PROMISED to me for 3+ years. ANd STILL...............nothing.
I tease (?) myself by saying
damn, I lost that thought.
Well, I don't want to lie here in bed, typing all day.
Time for breakfast, and I need to use up some edgy pineapple anyway.
