May 24, 2012 Nuts and bolts

There are days that call for grand works — composing the opus, designing the skyscraper, writing the final script, bringing out the new model, solving the big X, or moving the crowd with a rousing speech.

Then there are other days …

when good work consists of sorting nuts and bolts, the nails of various sizes, flat head and round head screws,  picture hangers, S hooks and the flotsam and jetsam that settles at the bottom of a dozen drawers. This was my day, my work.  Six boxes of sorted mostly metalic minutia.

You did me one better.  Or two or three. Good for you.
