   Mirror imagesFriday 18 July, 2003While lying awake just now, in bed in the midlde of the night, and in some discomfort (Its hot here and has been all day), and wiling away the time by posting very nice digital pictures in the air around the bed room I began idling wondering if on the other side of sleep, the sleep side, there were the same pictures in mirror image. It was a very interesting insight and I was proud of it. I thought if there were I would name the last one, where I brushed off some ants (They are everywhere here, looking for water) I would name that last picture hot feet, and then smiling wryly, I thought, or hot feet feet, yeah, that would be clever. A kind of play on Reeses Hot Tweet Tweets and everyone would get it and think I was a heck of a guy. So I carefully drifted closer and closer to the pictures, a delicate operation you understand, and finally checked the other side of the hot feet feet picture and found there was, as I surmised, another side to the picture and it was identical to the ones I posted when I was awake but I was a little upset to see that the mirror image of the picture(s) confirmed to sleep and awake and darn it I was now awake and it is 2:46 am. So I got up, I think, and typed this. I can’t wait to see if its really here when I wake up in the morning. If it is it should exist on the other side of sleep in mirror image. I think I will check that now.[I just tried to post this but keep getting a “cannot find server” message and I realized that my daughter and her family are visiting and are sleeping in the next room, on the floor, next to my phone connection, at the end of a very long line and they have probably loosened the plug-in and I cant get in there to check it. Ok I will have to post this in the morning. And how did it suddenly get to be 3:12 am, here in the dark, in the heat, bathed in the white glow of the screen? No, I mistake myself, it’s 3:22]3:31 amok I think I’ve figured out the genesis of this thing. My screen saver is now a beautiful picture by Vermeer, called a girl pouring milk , which I took myself at the museum in Amsterdam a couple of weeks ago, with my new and wonderful cannon S 50 digital camera. And I have been going to sleep watching a slide show of “walking Hadrian Wall” whose pictures and which last half of the wall I did on the same trip. It’s all so clear now. Notice the clarity of the prose also.
