noir
It was another one of those days.
I sat brooding at my desk, the inanities hovered around with irreverent pokes at my brain. Coffee spilt on the table, but not really. Work consumed, but not really. I sat focused, but not really. Noises floated in and out, and I knew what was going happen. I could feel it in my nerves that weren’t tingling. I could detect it in my dull senses. Sooner or later, it would be a reality, I was sure. I really did know what was going to happen that day.
And sure, enough nothing happened.
For I had known all the time, it was another one of those days when nothing would happen. Nothing at all.

I have many days like this.
Nothing happened .. except that you remembered Douglas A.
Do you NEVER feel cheerful on your own blog?
J.A.P.
I like the title of the post.
Yesterday and today have not been nothing days. They've been damn freaking busy and complicated and I yearn for my 'nothing' days!
yeah... why arent you ever cheerful on your blog? does life suck so much?
rat, penny: yes but are they good nothing days like penny wishes for, or bad ones? Nothing days are tricky, I tell you. Sometimes they are delighful sometimes they weigh you down
mint: so do i...:)
jap, anon: Ok, I get it. I am depressing. I have never noticed it, but now that you guys point out, I realise that most of my posts here are 'quiet' or 'introspective' or something equally (pseudo?) deep. But I am not a depressed person. I am not low all the time. I can be quite cheery actually, and often am.
So it remians a good question- why the sombre posts?
and,um, which part was Douglas A (for it was done unwittingly)
er, not witlessly:)
One of my favourite passages from THGTTG is that bit about a swamp bubbling away to itself for a few thousand years and then ... "Suddenly .. nothing happened"
Story of my life too.
J.A.P.
JAP: ah, yes. I remember that now. Still like the "many people thought this was not a good idea" bit a lot.
Your absolutely right ! Nothing days are very tricky. Yesterday I had a really bad nothing day. But today was fairly fun.
God, more often than not NOTHING happens to me. I take that as a good thing, actually.
nothing ever happens. and the needle returns to the start of the clock...
Encompassed by nothingness....
jay: yes it should be a good thing, right? but we dont always let it be right? and its not as philosophical as it sounds here right?
k.o.t.s: nono. it bloody never goes back, does the clock...
nomadic: it wasn;t that bad actually, before I am acused of more terminal depression. and, welcome.
Oh yes, those are the times!

Hi there Blogger, I had been out looking for some new information on seduce when I found your site and this post. Though not just what I was searching for, it drew my attention. An interesting post and I thank you for it.
