No woman could work for her husband (doing two jobs, no less) and still be his lover and call his work glorious.<br /><br />The very idea of getting a firm grip on the weather is equal parts fiction.<br /><br />I love your steampunk exploration ... how very fitting here. That photo is super hot as well.<br /><br />What if you are "the Weather," the doctors are men who have tried to wave their "stethoscopes" at you (diagnosing and offering healing), and the receptionist's intrigue is not really in his profession but rather with the Weather itself? <br /><br />"Lids discarded, jars turned on their sides,<br />these creatures bound away into the surrounding area" ... What if this is also an expression of you?<br /><br />Perhaps his diagnosis is that the Weather is incurably wild and unpredictable, which is why this woman is so thrilled.<br /><br />"They occur, presenting at intervals, and then repeat, <br />unpredictably." ... And what if this is the receptionist conducting her own research into the uncontrollable behavior of the Weather?<br /><br />"and research is at times uncommonly enthusiastic" ... See, I told you. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-66734331133596664852012-06-27T23:35:50.817-04:002012-06-27T23:35:50.817-04:00Shay, you never disappoint.
