where have i been

too many days off from the writing routine. took a break to read philosphy and think about Derrida. tough to get focused when you have deconstruction on the brain. but i think the notion of writing versus talking might be something i can use in my theory section of the big paper i am thinking baout writing.

too much stuffing and thanksgiving yummies to neglect going to eh gym as well. that routine is working. only real glitch inthe system is the writing. this office now has construction going on across the street. and not that I dislike the sounds of building, i cannot tolerate the sounds of trucks backing up. i hate that noise. and it seems as if every new loft construction starts with incessant reverse.

might have to figure out other places to take my laptop. where there is internet, water and coffee close by and some quiet.

tried reading in a variety of places last week. robarts is not a good choice. hart house is lovely and has the toast smell, but the napping is too tempting. home is okay for theory, but really, public is a bit better. not sure how to deal with the lonesomeness. being without stimulation or conversation or reflection is not good for the creative flow.

likely the next few weeks and hopefully next few meetings will afford some chance for reflection and some changes and improvements to the routine.
