A Long Time Ago...
Jan. 2nd, 2025 05:46 pmI have been cleaning things off my desk in the hope of eventually getting a surface that is not nearly so big a mess as it has been for the last several months. The problem is that I keep starting to clean it up, but then I get interrupted before the process is complete and a new layer of accreted material lands on top of the previous strata. The result is that the desk surface is the product of eons of accumulated stuff.
Lots of stuff.
In the last two days, I've made another frontal assault on the dig site, which has included going into the overstuffed closet and trying to remove stuff in there so that I can move some of the things that are on the desk into better storage. And I have thrown a lot of things away or tossed them into the recycling bin.
It is *still* a mess.
But among the things that just surfaced from the lower strata on the desk is a hand-labeled CD-R that says "Crosstime Bus, Bill Roper, Scratch Tracks, 1/14/10".
Oh, my.
I have been working on this project for a *very* long time.
This year would be a darned fine time to finish it.
Lots of stuff.
