Saving Reality in Postcards 4

“Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind cannot bear very much reality.” ts elliot

It’s that time of year again. My reality is backed up here, and there, and over there too. All life really lives on a thumb drive. It used to live in archival boxes and books, then floppy discs, Zip Discs, just discs, and now thumb drives. Shrinking reality is real.
Sometimes I’m afraid if I plug this year’s thumb drive into my computer, there will be nothing these. Empty. Gone. No more saved reality…or it has shrunk so small that I can’t see it. The images shrunk so small they aren’t usable…sometimes computers do this with older jpgs.
Perhaps, like us, digital reality doesn’t just diminish with time it retreats into another dimension.
I wish you all a wonderful new year in what ever dimension you keep your reality….you bet your sweet bippy.

• Himself: His very long stretch of overtime ends on the first. Oh hurrah. At the moment he is still working 9 to 9. Today quitting at 5. All these hours really matter, he is really pleased with his new paycheck.
• Herself: Swam and read. Today swim, bake a parmesan chicken, meeting. A staycation indeed.
• 52 Week House Reorganization: Printout more phone pages.
• Reading: I went to the library and brought home 6 Peters and Anne Perry. Just what I need on these long rainy days.
• Gratitudes: For having such a wonderful life.
