Margaret Atwood

claudia:

you fit into me
like a hook into an eye

a fish hook
an open eye

-A short poem by Margaret Atwood

I worship her.

Oh me too! I’ve read almost all her books. My favorite is “The Blind Assassin”, which also won the Booker Prize. This is my favorite poem by Atwood:

This is a Photograph of Me

It was taken some time ago At first it seems to be a smeared print: blurred lines and grey flecks blended with the paper;

then, as you scan it, you can see something in the left-hand corner a thing that is like a branch: part of a tree (balsam or spruce) emerging and, to the right, halfway up what ought to be a gentle slope, a small frame house.

In the background there is a lake, and beyond that, some low hills.

(The photograph was taken the day after I drowned.

I am in the lake, in the center of the picture, just under the surface.

It is difficult to say where precisely, or to say how large or how small I am: the effect of water on light is a distortion.

but if you look long enough eventually you will see me.)

Such a gem! From deep in the archives…an explanation of What is Electronic Mail?

Electronic Mail means high speed data transportation. One of the most advanced methods is terminals talking to each other. You mailbox is the terminal on your desk. Punch a key and today’s correspondence and messages are displayed instantly.

I can’t stop laughing.

Wow. Two young boys…talking like this? Good Lord!

Google and Sexism. I tried to Google the phrase “She invented” now. Seems like they’ve learned their lesson. Thank you, negative publicity!

Food for thought—Bottled water and environment pollution. Perhaps it’s time to re-think, no?

Wordpress, maybe?

Have you ever given Wordpress a thought? You won’t feel like going back to Blogger.

Project Sleepless— If you’re looking at your dashboard now/are seeing this picture, then you need this very much, just like I do. ;)

"Deactivating" versus "Deleting" Facebook

As far as I know, Facebook has already introduced the “Permanently delete” feature. So, no more worries. I might be wrong though…

Attention New Yorkers

This is crazy! I have been looking for apartments all evening (in St. Louis though) and have been worrying about Washer/Dryer hookups and Dishwashers too. I can’t stop laughing. Well, most of the apartments that I’m looking at have washer/dryer hookups. And I suppose I should be able to buy at least a portable dishwasher to use. I didn’t know that things that I take for granted are…well…not quite like in other parts of the country. And I’m not happy with only the washer/dryer hookup either. Instead, I have been looking for apartments that already have washer/dryers pre-installed! I feel so spoilt now. In my current apartment, I don’t have a washer/dryer (most apartments don’t have one) and I use the coin operated machines that are in the apartment basement.

Did you do that just to teach me a lesson? Perhaps…prove a point? Private reblogging person, you are so powerful. Now go ahead and reblog this into a private group too. :-\

A slightly different way to view 'My Posts'

This link is for logged-in Tumblr users only. You’ll notice one difference in the header.

Check out the URL - you can toss almost any ol’ word in there. 

I tried ‘crap’ and ‘piss’. Never knew that we can change that word.
