waiting rooms

It’s been written, I dimly recall it was by a hack author, that the courses of our lives are determined in healthcare waiting rooms.

Today I helped draft referral letters for SRS. I am not sure they will be accepted yet, so next step is to have them screened and verified.

I felt it was surreal that every step is so everyday, so mundane, so not loaded. Life is business as usual and the small details around us never stop.

If these are all correct, there will soon be nothing whatsoever left to use as an excuse to delay any longer.

Next then therefore, start treating the date as very concretely real in my head and my life, so I can see what happens and emerges as I do.

Let the dead rise to smell the incense.
