Cookie Calender |10:01 AM|
How long can I last?
I'm using a single cookie as a measurement of how together I am today. I have eaten all of its comrades from the container, and I want to see how long I can go before I eat the last one. Will it be temptation? Hunger? Or will I forget and absent-mindedly eat the damn thing?
Mmmmm.
No! I mustn't give into the temptation.
Anyhow, I'm fucking bored, my job doesn't have a purpose, and I want to dislocate all of the fingers in my left hand so I can wriggle them around near people in the breakroom so they get the fuck out of my way.
Edit: As of 1:02 pm I have eaten that goddamn cookie, and it was good. Reason for eating: If I had left it out much longer it probably would have gone bad.
Tiny StoryOn this page of
fireworks that Vid found, I'd like to point out the description of the M-85 tank.
See all guns blaze with this moving marvel! A silver flitter to whistle jet gets this dynamo moving into position before shooting a forward stream of gold sparks. A burst of silver and green flitter is shot from each side of is turret before the main annon produces a shock of silver strobe flashes. A gold spark and whistle burst sends the tank turret in a furious spin before a vertical fire of gold sparks, followed by a volley of crackle end the M-85’s engagement. Mission accomplished!
Emphasis mine.
I like that this tiny tank had a story, a plot, a mission that needed to be completed. It burned not just for itself, but for a greater purpose. A task assigned itself by its maker.
With each detonation of gunpowder, a tiny bit of the story is told just like the subtle motions of the hula dancer, but with more explosions and fire.
Also, I have composed a short ditty on the effects of prescription amphetamines.
Pills pills, the magical bliss;
The more you eat, the more you piss.
