cardiac

Late again today, late because of late starting,
and then even later because of the traffic.
Is it true that the traffic will move faster if every
one drives steadily and slowly? People do
not drive steadily and slowly, they drive like
egomaniacs. Fish in a shoal do not
compete with each other, neither do a flock of
birds do this. Think of it, a flock of competing
starlings, it just would not work.
Arrive late, the usual parking spot under the
'tree' is taken. Find another, next to a fence.
Hope that nobody else will park their car so
as to make movement and leaving difficult this
evening. But who cares, that will be a problem
for this evening.
go into the building, clock in, climb the
stairs around the pendulum.
There is now a sense of exhaustion, an
inability to concentrate, a sense of tiredms
There are no fixed jobs to be done today, just
diverse maintenance. There is nothing but an
all pervading sense of tiredness. Sit down
before the screen., first read the letters, then the
whole lot goes fuzzy, blurrs and darkens.
Shake, wake, try to concentrate. It seems to
be a day of slowing, even a slight fear of
cessation, of death that no-one has said
is in any way imminent. But the fear
is there, after the pains in the chest, the same
this morning as those proven unfounded
months ago. The pain today will have the
same diffuse cause as those others, it is
not a sign of oncoming cardiac arrest.
To prove this, another cup of coffee would
be in order.
Check up on the printing machines in the
basement, make a few adjustments. Return
to the computer in the office, start a tutorial
to explain modern technology to this old
guy. On the way up from the basement say
hello to the Polish colleague in her room in
the basement. She is looking at things on her
computer, she is good natured, she talks
about the colleague who fell ill at a young
age. He had a heart attack, he is enjoying
his recovery in a clinic by a lake.
.
Doing the tutorials, realise that the new
technology in the 3d programme will
work well together with another program
enabling a new depiction of various
models.
Think about this, a short while.
It is eleven O'cklock, Time for a break,Time
to go to the cafe with the man with the
breaking voice.
