the slow drift down the Autobahn, let the others drive on the left, they will be ten minutes later and so what, the same old truck from Romania driving steadily at ninety kilometres in the hour. Then the fog on the country roads. trafic lights with a red fog halo about them. Turn on the fog lamps in the car, the traffic ahead is visible much later than would be expected, suddenly a twin red glow in the fog and then they are bright lights. It is tiring, the lights of the oncoming traffic are a diffuse glare in the fog. Turn off into the university campus, now there are people in dark clothing everywhere.
Park beside the fence near the tree.
Go upstairs past the pendulum, which has stuck.
Read the mail, the repair person for the printer is already in the building.
reply
two minutes later a knock on the door.
Try to help put lift the printer down onto the trolley.
And the IT person takes the printer away, leaving all the cables there.
Roll the cables up, and as an afterthought move the furniture,
Then read the news, suddenly things go dark, the eyesight goes, what is happening? There is no concentration, it is like a sudden collapse of blood pressure.
Everything went dark for a while, there is no idea as to what that was.
Make a cup of coffee, maybe the hot drink will help. Back to reality and the present now.
