“not many more of these left”
said the morning
“you’d better start earlier from now on”
the day was not amused
there were so many possibilities for things to do before the evening that it seemed pointless to talk in those terms
since the years of toil had been gone for quite some time now, arbitrary and regimented designations like noon and thus… afternoon, were exactly that
pointless
“stop complaining or go and visit the middle of the night sometime or, better yet try adding 4:00 am to yourself if you want more to work with… i’m sick of your attitude”
the morning said nothing and simply went off to the kitchen to sulk
there was little more to say, especially now that relatively little was expected regarding any kind of morning routine anymore
besides coffee of course
daytime relaxed into the easy chair and picked up the current book of choice
the need for food wouldn’t become pressing for a while and with leftovers in the fridge, very little brain was going to be needed there, so this was a perfect time for that much favored activity of recreational reading
all alone now the day sat languishing in the comforting sanctuary that was the easy chair and as time went by and the pages of the book began to blurr and the need for food became more insistent it was becoming time…
time for lunch
or as it had now become known…
“the day’s main meal”
it seemed so funny that this thing… this “lunch” that used to be considered almost an afterthought or as an inconvenience really, just a bodily requirement that had to be fulfilled back when the toil was all that mattered… it seemed funny that this meal had now become such an important part of the day
and although today was a relatively easy one in that department due to plenty of cold pizza from yesterday’s festivities, it had become the main thing to do on any given day
apart from any real project
which of course would take precedent over most things
and as it happened
today…
all current real projects could easily be left for another day if so desired so…
“i’ll think about that later, after lunch”
said the day as once again the easy chair and book beckoned for another round of chill time, now with the added yummy of cold pizza and an afternoon beer
“guess a nap just got placed on the agenda for late afternoon
ha!”
this day then put the foot rest of the chair up and stretched out
big time
“evening?
ha!
hours away
and who knows…
morning may just never come again”
