New Time

Okay... did you know that the last time did you know that the last time neptune was where it is now, we had not fought the civil war? some of my ancestors had not immigrated to the U.S. yet. and the last time pluto was where it is now, the united states was not yet founded?
in Pluto time, the medieval age began, ended, the new world was founded, and the native americans were all screwed out of their land and lives within three years. 6.66 pluto years ago, jesus was immaculately conceived and was crucified probably within 3 degrees of pluto's revolution.

in light of my first entry today... I am inventing my own time...

Actually, now that I go to do this, it seems difficult, because I don't really like to plan a schedule, but I am going to try, just to prove the arbitrary nature of time to myself.

There is no today or tonight, there is right now. What am I going to do today? you mean, what am I going to do right now.

Right now I am going to: eat, sleep, read, watch tv, work, teach math, teach reading, have recess, play chess, play checkers... depending on what I feel like or hafta do right now.

There may be a tomorrow. you may ask me about a tomorrow. I will be indefinite.

There may be a later. I may have an idea about a later. More likely than an idea about tomorrow.

There is definitely a soon, or an "in a while", provided that I don't die earlier than that.

There are many past moments... or memories. I can tell you about these moments, but don't count on knowing "when" in your traditional terms.

How old am I? I have made it around the sun about 27 1/2 times... but you might say I am half as old as my mom. Or I have been under about 96 more full moons than my brother jake, 72 more than my sister becky, 48 more than my brother Dan, but 24 less than my sister tania, 60 less than my sister trina, 84 less than my sister tammy, 108 less than my sister Tracy, 216 less than my dad, 324 less than my mom (sorry mom), 3 more than my friend angie...

Don't ask me to do the math for sunrises, please!

I work for about one sixth of a moon cycle, and then I have one 15th of a moon cycle off.
this repeats about four times per moon cycle.

After working 9 moon cycles, I get three moon cycles off.

I am nine blue moons old, I think...

Another day, another degree...

I am just trying to occupy the "right nows" until I have to work... I will probably go to B&N to work on Miscue Analysis "soon" ... and maybe get some tea... or coffee... make it decaf, I want to sleep sometime before the sun rises again.
