Given that, I might as well have a good time.
Just another day here, I sluffed yoga, and hung out with some boring guy who asked me where he could buy a phone charger. He was reading The Bible, and we sat at the outdoor table smoking cigarettes while I tried to write.
He asked me if he could see what I was writing, but I didn't want to show him.
Everything is boring must be the answer. That would explain a lot.
I've just been watching BBC programs today like Dr. Who and The Black Adder. That's been fun. I guess I ought to watch some Faulty Towers, too. I haven't seen that show in its entirety yet. It didn't peak my interest as much as Monty Python, but I'll give it a try again sometime soon.
Who cares about what I write? No one. So why should I care? I like to write is why. I like the enjoyment of my fingers going across the keyboard, and it is a hell of a lot easier to write this way than with a a pencil or a typewriter.
I keep thinking I am going to write a dialogue, but I never get around to it, so maybe I should just start one and see what happens.
A: Hello.
B: Hello there.
A: How is it going?
B: Just fine.
A: Why is life so boring?
B: Just how you look at things is why.
A: How do you mean?
B: Well, it doesn't all have to be a bowl of oatmeal, know what I mean?
A: Not really.
B: Well, maybe you should spruce things up a bit. Maybe you need to get laid. That will pump some
blood into you.
A: I suppose you are right. But hey, you know what? I have finally gotten around to writing a dialogue.
That is exciting.
B: It is about time. I've been waiting.
A: I used to write more dialogues, but I've slacked off for quite a while. One doesn't see many printed
dialogues.
B: No, they don't print many dialogues in the papers or magazines. It's a shame. Dialogues are great,
and they are fun to read.
A: Yes, I agree. I ought to do more, but it takes up a lot of space on my blog.
B: You are such a defeatist.
A: I know, I should really do something about that. Maybe tomorrow.
B: You're a procrastinator, too, it looks like.
A: I do what I can to make the world go round.
B: I wish I could get a girl to do some dialogue with me. That would be fun.
A: Yes it would. It is hard to get girls to agree to do anything. That is the problem.
B: You make me laugh, haha. Yes, it is hard to get them to agree to do anything.
A: They only go into the water when the water is tested and is the right temperature. Thay have to make
sure it is safe.
B: Yes, they do.
A: So what are you doing right now?
B: Not much of anything, really. Just sitting around.
A: Why didn't you want to talk to that Bible guy?
B: He took so long to ask me where he could buy a phone charger, it became a big deal, and it just
turned out he was reading The Bible, but otherwise he was a nice guy.
A: Did your other friend show up?
B: Yes, he did. He blathered on about something, and I gave him my ears for a bit, and then he took off.
A: Was it a good day at the coffee shop?
B: Yes, it was, although it was a little cold. But I was able to get some writing done. That was good.
A: More of that wandering around kind of writing?
B: Yeah, it is kind of exploratory for me.
A: So what are you going to do for the rest of the day?
B: Maybe go over to a friend's house. We'll see what happens.
A: Well, I hope you have a good time. I had better take off myself. I have things to do.
B: Okay, I'll talk to you later.
A: Okay, bye for now.
B: Okay, bye. That was fun to have a conversation. I like to have conversations.
A: Okay, bye.
B: Bye for now.
A: One last thing...
B: Okay, what?
A: Is the friend you are going to see...is it a female?
B: Yes.
A: Well, good luck then.
B: Okay, bye for now.
A: Bye.
B: And it isn't my sister, it's an actual real woman.
A: Okay, that is good to know.
B: Well, see you around.
A: Okay, good bye.
B: Take care.
A: Okay, I will, you, too.
B: Okay, laters.
I just wanted to say that the guy was reading 'The Living Bible'. Ugh....I knew he was reading The Bible without asking because of the numbers and I saw the name 'Ezekiel'.
He did have a look at the books I was reading, the one about coffee, and the Steve Martin book.
I never got around to reading my books. It wasn't the day for that. Sometimes it is just nice to have books laying around. At least someone got to look at them. It was cold outside, and with the interruptions, I never got around to reading today.
Wow, the day is getting late. Time flies when you are having fun. Am I having fun? I guess I am.
O, I am such an artist. Writing 'O' is weird. It seems so ancient and cumbersome. Most people write 'oh', but that isn't exactly correct, is it? It is actually easier to avoid the whole thing by not writing 'O' or 'oh' and then you are sure not make a mistake.
Words are like clay, you can mold them, bend them, and make them do what you want.
Why am I doing anything? Bored I guess, and I am trying to have some fun writing a piece. Someone else might look at this and think, 'wtf' ? I don't know what they think. I barely know what I think. No one reads anymore anyhow. Not many people I know even have time to read. I am seeing more and more people with portable electronic devices instead of carrying a book around. That is a shame.
