Deep, Weird Time
Feb. 5th, 2012 10:30 pmYesterday before work (0620 wake-up time on that one), I noticed that time was doing some strange speeding up effects. I decided to try to use it to my advantage and, for the most part, it worked. A seven-hour work day only felt like 4.5 hours. So, success.
Toward the end of the day, I encountered someone with whom I took one class, 6 years ago. He was in McClymond's Hinduism seminar with me. We'd been seing each other around the cheese shop, and I had thought he looked familiar. Turns out, he thought so, too, and he introduced himself, and we figured out the deal.
Today, time was much slower-- the counter-stretch to the snap that already happened. Today, I ran into a girl with whom I went to high school 15 years ago, and who I've not seen since.
She was one of a pair of twins, and I was weirdly infatuated with her sister, in middle school. In high school I realised that she (the one whom I encountered, today) was actually the far more interesting of the two of them.
Of all the people I was expecting so see, today, she was not one.
Time is odd, today.
