TИAЯ

I was bookmarking my horribly composed reader for one of the classes. It had no table of contents and it was impossible to find anything in it. And to make it a perfectly OCD endeavor I decided that bookmarks have all to be on the same side and all be readable from one side. The problem is that the bookmarks were writable only on one of its surfaces. So, in order to make it all accord to the plan, I had to write on some of my semi-transparent articles in reverse. RAWLS had to become Z_IWAЯ etc. etc. What struck me is how quickly my brain adapted to the task. After an attempt or two my crooked reverse letters pored as if there was no reversal at all. I wonder why. It also made me regress somewhere deep into my childhood when that kind of behavior was to be overcome rather than mastered.
