Blogs From Another Dimension
What you read here is a blog entry from an alternate universe!
The exhaustion of the week is already beginning to take its toll and my capacity for concentration is not the same. The pressure that the Pentagon exercises on its team of scientists is enormous and although I adore my work, one of these days Iʼll leave my eyes in one of these microscopes. Once again yesterday, I took with me all the documentation on the latest advances with the nano-robots home and, when I wanted to give an account, I woke up lying on the sofa surrounded by files and papers. I have promised myself that I would never again bring work home with me. This time Iʼll do it.
Washington DC is a great city but at this time of year, when the good weather begins, that is when I most regret not living in California, by the sea, enjoying endless walks on the beach. If I listened (?) to my mom, sheʼd start in and throw my scare and empty private life in my face again.
This morning I called mom saying that I was going to go the doctor, that there were days that small wounds would appear on my hands that had scared and healed. Since dad died, these are the typical situations in which I feel somewhat guilty being alone. I told him that I will try to see this through soon however, with the load of work that we have ultimately, itʼs not going to be done easily. Perhaps in the month of July I can manage to escape for a few days.
Today they have assured me that this week the reports on the last advances in military nanotechnology developed by NASA will arrive. They have done a lot of experimentation with this technology and to date; the results have not been too encouraging. This time it seems that the last tests have been successful. I am anxious to see what these little bastards are capable of.
