the real story

There is a science fiction novel set by Donaldson (the gap series), where the first book The Real Story tells the official story and the next five book tell you what actually happened from the point of view of different characters. My crisis of the moment is to piece back a story that took place in April/May and attempt to figure out a sequence of events that i wasn't privy to and hence didn't pay attention to at the time.

Generally i am anal about collecting on-paper information in hard copy form that provides a trace of records, but yesterday was spent sorting files and digging for information that wasn't where it was thought to be. Slow computers, unexpected visitors and managing life aspects always need more attention on those types of days. Just one of those days of ineffectiveness, where buffetted by circumstance, you make your way through with as much optimism and clarity of thought as possible.

When Einstein's relativistic observer got sucked into the reference frame - somebody still had to play the narrator's role, right? Life gets too comfortable when you don't have to deal with circumstance - distractions are available in many forms. i wish my postings could be more erotic than erratic, but that's how life works these days, for those of us who know better than to believe the real story.
