I am very bored today.

Revolving doors are a rare sight here in SF. In Chicago almost all businesses had a revolving door. For many it was the only door. It took getting used to. They have much more reason to be concerned about maintaining a controlled temperature.

Work is unstimulating. I am sitting here trying not to think about how I am wasting minutes, hours, days of my life in this office. I could be reading. I could be learning something. Brian says I should use my down time at work to write. But this environment is not conducive to writing at all. I am extremely uninspired here and I am surrounded by noises and distractions. I would like to go outside and walk, but I already did that during lunch hour. I went to Union Square. It’s really warm today, just right.

Writing in here daily is important to me and I’m going to keep it up, even if no one reads it/cares. It’s like practice to me. It’s like going to the gym. It’s getting in shape.

I am in a creative rut and need to diagnose why. All I can come up with is: my job, and my back injury.

    sam’s office has revolving doors. it forced me to learn revolving door etiquette. such as, it is wrong to double up in one section, even if it is someone you like.

    a jack prelutsky poem for you:

    I am running in a circle and my feet are getting sore, I am spinning spinning spinning as I’ve never spun before, I am dizzy dizzy dizzy, oh I cannot take much more, I am trapped in a revolving – volving – volving – volving door.

    I memorized that in the 5th grade and I still remember it now. Amazing.
