Writer's Block: Don't Call It a Comeback

[Error: unknown template qotd] My London housemate went Up North and I got a text saying, "Up North smells funny."

Three weeks later, I wanted to reply, "Yeah, that's called 'Fresh Air'."


YEAH. WAAAAAAY too late.

I got a really good one one time, though, pity I can't actually remember doing it.

I was mid-conversation with the bezzies, sitting on the floor of the school yard. I'm a strong believer in the power of imagination, so being cold, I was pretending there was a fire to warm my hands on. The bezzies, used to all the insane fandango that is my brain and/or life just shrugged and accepted it.

Anyway anyway anyway, THEN one of the "cool" girls comes over, pushes the bezzies out of the way, and proceeds to give me a dirty look:

Girl: What the hell are you doing on the floor?
Me: Warming my hands on an invisible fire.
Girl: You are such a loser.
Me: Yeah, and you're stood in the fire.


She didn't really know what to say after that, but I think I pissed on her fire. pun!

XD Niiice.

I thought I was the only one who used invisible flames to heat myself up...

Have you ever found it to work?

I find it only works when I'm alone, or in the company of others who understand and accept my odd tendencies. P:

It's even better when said others participate in the peculiar behavior. :3

Yeah she did! My friends like to tell that story to remind themselves of my rare intelligence.

Anyway, where have you been?

Working an awful lot, and being up to more on my free time than I usually am. Feels like we haven't talked properly for quite some time now. :(

I know! :( I've been having exams and struggling to stay on focus anyway, so maybe it's a good thing. I mean, you must know what you do to me? :P

When are you next free?

Hahaha, well, I'm glad that me being busy has enabled you to stay more focused! :P "We're doing it to each other"...

I'm not sure actually; I might be free for a bit tomorrow, if I manage to get some UWP related stuff done first. *tries to slam some self-discipline into self* And if not that, I'm free on Wednesday and Thursday.
