Coincidences

 As far as I know, there were some but not a lot of weird coincidences during my early childhood, i.e. before President's College, which is the main period for my book Growing Up In The Town Of Linden (you may know that I am known for having a lot of weird coincidences and I would like a movie made of my life). There were quite a few weird coincidences at President's College. The main one has to do with my birthday. I had a lot of weird coincidences later on.

The weirdcoincidences tag/label provides more information.

Interesting question:

How likely are you to believe weird things?

If weird things on a page turn out to be true, it is reasonable to assume everything there is true?

The BA Job

 The BA position is very special. It involves using business knowledge for the benefit of IT projects. I got into this job/career many years ago - I started at the company in a training program. It is a tough job. I remember a lot of the Analysts had short stints on the project I was working on during a job rotation. I was there for months and months, one of the longest Analysts on that project. I believe my background made a difference. Your background really could make a difference on a project - maybe the system will make more sense to you. Your qualifications may not be the only thing that matters. I remember Myers-Briggs results were considered. I did experimental work at some of the jobs. I mention this in one of my papers (my marketing paper).

Story and Poems

 Computer limited, using phone:

I wanted to review information out there (resources) on stories vs. poems. I like that there is more of a connection with poetry sometimes.

Other blogs

 Admiring the work of others in the blogosphere... I found an interesting and informative blog by an accomplished haiku master from Maryland. Interesting that someone else stores thoughts about poetry and writing in a blog. The blog: https://starsinmysugarbowl.wordpress.com/. I like her 'buy me a coffee' link.

Working, working

 Bagel and cream cheese...I enjoyed it. It reminded me of deli orders so long ago. I liked to get breakfast at delis in Washington, DC before work.

 

I am currently working on stories and poems on President's College. I like what I have so far. It should be a good book. I also plan to submit an application for a particular job today. I will continue working on my compensation paper soon. I have some new ideas for the paper. A lot to do...

Small town life

 I am certain you have seen writings about life in and lessons from a small town (example: https://www.readunwritten.com/2015/04/03/what-growing-up-in-a-small-town-teaches-you-about-life/). My poembook is similar in a lot of ways. It includes informative poems about my important experiences in the town I grew up in with a summary of top lessons from growing up there. My life in Linden shaped who I became. See my book Growing Up In The Town Of Linden.

Blurring lines

 That Anne Carson, the new Nobel Prize winner, blurs lines/categories in literature was a surprise. I read with interest that she writes "novels in verse, essays that read like poems, and poems that read like philosophy." My book is similar (it blurs lines too). Wow!
