Not Senseless

I just heard a car pull out of a driveway in a hurry accompanied by the obvious sound of someone tossing a bottle onto the pavement. I also hear the rousing cheers of a game of street hockey. Traffic susurrates along the road, and my finger tap-a-tap on my keyboard.

The taste of buckwheat pasta, tomato sauce, and chicken lingers in my mouth, but I can't smell anything.

I feel tired, and the space key beneath my finger is as smooth as a polished piece of silver.

Everything seems to be in shades of grey and beige. One of the lightbulbs in my room has burnt out, and sucked the colour into its glassy black hole.

I want to do something creative, but I'm too tired. I'd like to work on a new project, but I don't have the time for it. Maybe I will in a week or two, but I doubt it. It all depends on how quickly I can get my homework done. Tonight, I'm taking it easy, though. Maybe I'll read. I seldom get the opportunity, anymore, and my current book is doing a pretty good job of drawing me in. Maybe I'll even read in the bath! Now that is a great idea!

Oh no! Just to let you know, Assassin's Apprentice, and its sequels, starts out really, really well and then becomes an absolute tearjerker. Horrible, horrible things happen to the main character, over and over. His life and mind are destroyed, like, eight times. At some point in the series, it all just got too depressing and I had to give it up. I wish you better luck with it, but keep this warning in mind.

Well, I made it through Piers Anthony's mega-tragedy: Bio of a Space Tyrant. Let's see if I can make it through this one, too!

You could fight off a bear like this woman
