Add New Post
No comments · Posted by Vt Slique in Mind rumbling, uncontrollably spewing forth stuff and non-stuff.
So. I am staring at this blank page. And the Headline, “Add New Post” as if it is a command that I have to obey.
Obey? Me? I don’t know if I feel like obeying right now. It’s Sunday. And I would rather be sitting in my yard sipping a tall glass of lemonade or ice tea. Watching my dog roll around in the dirt. But. I am not in my yard. I am here. At the computer. Always the obedient servant, I listen to my computer and I type.
Wait. It says Add New Post. Not Type New Post. How do I do this post adding stuff? Is it simply jamming on the ten-key thing? That’s Fun! I’m sure everyone would just love to read a bunch of numbers. Anyone fluent in machine code out there?
I have no clue what to add. So has writing become suddenly like math? While I was sleeping did Language Arts somehow merge into an unhappy union with Calculus and Geometry? Oh, wait. Adding is the easy stuff. They didn’t say divide, multiply or solve for x and y. Or Pi r squared area stuff. Whew! I’m off the hook.
Anyway. How do I form words and letters into an arithmetic equation? I guess what I write isn’t exactly comprehensible sometimes, so why not throw a little math into the equation so that everybody completely misunderstands?
A little misunderstanding. Ah. To hell with it. Where’s my lemonade? Add new post? Not in my box!
