Did I?..............................I Cannot Truly Really Remember, Honest! Cut The Deck, Take Your Chance.

Each week I sit down to write. I start writing and I think "Did I write this before?" When choosing a song I think "Did I play this before?" In a few months I will have written 200 posts. I think this whole literary pratfall has a dual mission. One is to tell people I know what I am doing, realizing that maybe they don't understand the process. They still can see what the boat looks like. The second mission  is to allow people doing what I am doing a glimpse on the way I'm accomplishing the task, how I approached a given thorny process. Perhaps there is a third mission, a personal one. The transcription cements the thought process and allows me to step back and see that I actually did something and maybe how I could do it better. So if I repeat myself, it is because everything gets muddled together and we do the same thing over and over. My only consolation is that you probably don't remember either.

​And a big pile of sympathy to Olivier, who commented on last week's blog. His week was less interesting than mine, a goal difficult to achieve.

And a thankya to Ken, ATW, for pointing out that I may be making progress despite of my work ethic. I'll try harder.

The wood for the rear deck. It ate up my budget. The trip to get it ate up my Monday. The truck ate up a half tank of gas. I ate up a bowl of Pho. They only had 20' boards, which didn't fit inside and had to ride on top strapped down to the bumpers. I was careful not to scratch the truck (hahahahahahahahahahahahaha).

And at this point I spilled a glass of wine on the keyboard and killed it, I just ordered a new one and will post again when I get it in the mail.
