Agency of aliens. I started typing angency. That makes me think of angels. Angelcy. Agency--action. Movement. Aliens. Something foreign to one. Aliens among us. An agency of aliens. Agency, as in a group of agents. Like talent agents. Real estate agents. FBI agents. Agents are ones who act. Aliens who are agents. Agents of what? Agents of being aliens. They are professionally foreign, always traveling to new places so that they are always unfamiliar to those who do not move. Agency. One's ability to act for oneself. Agency. There's a sound of a door closing. Another person entering the space, perhaps. No. The bathroom door closing. My mother, entering the bathroom. Sometimes I wish I had no one else desiring me to do anything. No obligations to anyone but myself. I know that isn't the way to live, but sometimes I want to live that way. Just for awhile. Hence my desire to go away for a few nights, maybe just two nights, by myself. Three nights would be nice. That would mean two mornings and full days of utter freedom to do whatever I want to do, before the day I return to obligations and after the day I leave obligations. I feel kind of bad for wanting that.
