“The right moment for starting on your next job is not tomorrow or next week; it is instanter, or in the American idiom, ‘right now.’ ” – Arnold Toynbee
A long time ago I read how Arnold Toynbee worked when writing his history of the world. He did the research in the morning and early afternoon, then wrote into the evening. You’d have to be pretty organized to have the right material handy, but it does cut down on short term memory loss.
Forgot to mention here that I had a Richard Nixon dream last night. I spent several dream hours chasing, catching, securing and locking away old Tricky Dick. Have no idea what that was about, but it did have a recurring theme: I’m in a hotel, it’s check out time and I’m not gonna make it. Have no idea what that’s about either. It did occur to me that Nixon has entered the national bank of archetypes. He’s the all purpose bad guy, the psychopath who made it to the Big House. It felt good defeating him. Maybe that was the point.
Off to the MIA today to get my photo taken for a new security badge. I need to do this since the last time I had one was in 2001, when I still had hair.
