"postcard expressions of cognative experiences"

I am going over to Joanie's to say good bye, but that should not be an all day event. We're both going to start crying because she thinks it is healthy for me to break the personal boundaries I set up, like not being a hug person and is going to make me tell her what I am thinking and feeling and when I have to admit that in person, it kind of trips me out. I do a lot better covering it up with "verbage" and de-personalizing it in my writing. It turns things into something else. Not less genuine by any means, but saying something out loud is like another kind of proclamation.

I saw a tree today that was trained to grow in a spiral. It was a salient example of dynamic stability (thanks for the phrasing, becci...) But, it looked like a spine. It was pretty amazing. And it didn't curve in one place, but spiraled through several. Like our bodies moving through, in and around space. Cool stuff.

for for real this time, peacing out, your friend,
Tracy
