		today was a good day and a sunny day.

		we went to work on the weekend and had a field day.
		even though rene doesn't work there anymore

		finally fixing once and for all
		that "add third slash here and be done" bug
		the update of which we have now thrown away 3 times
		in the span of more than 3 months
		through the abject communal misuse of a piece of shit
		chastity belt microsoft-owned
		known as visual source save

		but not us ever again, not this bug, not anymore.

		naturally i treated for a feast at a persian restaurant
		naturally we ate way too much and then dessert.  my idea.
		naturally this was required ceremonially
		naturally we live digitally
		eat with fingers too
		when called upon.

		but reality is analog computed
		and di-spirals on.

		too few
		know the joy of work well done
		because they have no work
		either any or any that can be
		well done.

		too few know
		of feasts eaten in ethnic restauranten _smile_

		devoid for a moment of any awareness
		that somewhere not too far

		people are homeless or subhomed
		hungry and poor or subfed.
		a crystal (so oscillating at multihundred megahertz)
		of slipper-instant comfort this

		this present obliviousness and that.
