the word 'new' has never really described anything pertaining to my life. everything is just old ideas & old concepts come to life, things that are just a long time coming. i suppose my latest new venture was befriending my friends. & well, that's coming on history.
i find all my new in ecs.
because even when it's 1730 & i'm stuck in northbound traffic. even when it's noon & there is a fisher cat after my blood. even when i've been tabulating for 3 hours. even when i've been scanning for 5. even when i'm sick with migraine/hangover at 745. even when i'm only on well 7 out of 12 at 1500. even when i forget my machete. even when i forget my tools. even when my shoes are soaking wet. even when i have 6 gw contour maps to do by end of day. even when it is 80 degrees & sunny & i'm stuck in the office. even when there are no more dreams to be had. even when i've run out of pandora hours. even when it is 1330 & i'm supposed to be high-tailing it to wormtown. even when there are no more vehicles on a monday morning & i have to drive to the south shore. even when the equipment i need is spoken for. even when it's been raining, pouring for 4 hours & there are still 2 to go. even when i have to FAKE it--
ecs is all my new.
today we moved into the "new space". the one that's been a long time coming-- marked in orange crates & un-billable hours. the one with the yellow & orange & blue walls.
2 years, well, that is just a long time for me to belong to something.
& 2 years ago, well, i guess that's when i was just dying for something new.
tonight, though.
