time travel
Typing that title, I had a thought: is not all travel time travel? We have not yet, I believe, mastered the art of instantaneous travel, and so everywhere we go we're moving into the future at a rate of one second per second. Right? But that's not what I wanted to write about. What I did want to write about was the fact that where I live and where I work seem to be in different climatic zones, so in driving to work I have the feeling I'm passing some two or three days into the future. Going home, of course, sees the same thing in reverse. I only hope my trip home this afternoon doesn't take me so far back as to go right back to the end of winter; they tell me there might be a frost tonight! What will happen to my poor helpless seedlings I just put into my brand new garden?!
I have my computer in my house now, which is a big step in the right direction; the internet will follow in due course, and then we'll be back in business! Posting blog entries at work here is fine, I suppose, but it'll be nice not to have to work on IE 4.5 any more.
