rapid eye movement

i have come to the quarter to five mark in my day and was mid-way through my eye fatigue exercises -

look at a close spot, focus on a spot far away, look at a close spot, focus on a spot far away - repeat to fade...

and wanted to tell you that just then my eyes started doing these weird saccade like movements (a likely tautology).

and when i remembered the word 'saccade' i was so surprised, and found it so secretly useful, but was worried i would never be able to tell anyone of the experience.

i looked at a close spot and thought it is you or the blog, and you won.

the way you do.

emily at 4.55pm hopes to tell you next time of a close call she had with a phone-call of yours she missed deliberately so that she would therein be able to treasure the message left.

or a dream in which she was talking to you on your side of the fence that may have been more like a wall, say the great wall of china but less long and windy, but just as sturdy though not quite as old.
