Theres two puzzles.

I cant really work on both of them at the same time, because if i do, all the peices will get mixed up, and i wont put any of either of them together, and besides, thats not how you do puzzles, you take a small section of ONE and work on it piece by piece.

So i could work on the puzzle to the left, or i could work on the puzzle to the right.

There is a VAUGE possibility that both of these puzzles are so large, they actually are the same puzzle. But from where im sittin, it doesnt really look that way,

So i could work on the puzzle to the left, or i could work on the puzzle to the right.

Being a right handed person by nature, my hands are reaching for the puzzle on the right, which will either run into and become the puzzle on the left, or, once it comes together enough that all i have left are the putzing around parts like the solid blue sky (not the parts that require actual analysis and much concentration), I can move to the left one, and thus complete both of them, slowly but surely.

If I start wtih the puzzle on the left, because of ITS nature, I might not ever get to the puzzle on the right.

Are you confused yet?

But everyone, everyone, everyone! (excpet consistantly julie, who does her puzzles the same as me) says, suggests, demands, etc. that i do the puzzle on the left first, and then if i still want to finish the puzzle on the right, thats my choice. Sometimes they say this because the puzzle on the left is more clear. Sometimes they say accomplishing the puzzle on the left is more impressive and i will be more "successful". Sometimes they just say "I dont like the puzzle on the right".

And so my hands go back and forth back and forth back and forth,

The thing is, I have a sneaking sinking suspicion I will feel worse about not seeing the end result of Right Hand Puzzle more than i will of Left Hand Puzzle.

Life would be so much easier if the puzzle on the right were HAMLET and the puzzle on the left were PRUFROCK. No question then, right? Pictures of teadybear tails and steam-train rails dont split so obidiently into our more familiar categories. Damnit anyway
