One more thing: yesterday, the computer engineer said to me: "you computer girl, yes?" I looked at him quizzically. "Sorry, sorry, lady," he responded, thinking I didn't like being called a girl, which I have no strong views on.
I pressed him for more information. I guess he looked at my combat trousers, tied-back messy hair (I'm a homeworker, right?), contemporary meeejah-style glasses (no lenses today, ditto), and drew conclusions. "Web girl, right?" He wouldn't tell me any more, except that I should ask my "computer friends" whether I look like one.
Is this a compliment? How did I get here (I ask myself)? Letting the days go by, water flowing underground...
