After two long weeks of hustle and bustle, I find myself in my air-conditioned living room facing a quiet afternoon with nothing important to do.
I don’t even have a reason to procrastinate.
Thought 1: A Poem
Today the house stands still
and empty; the only sound:
the gentle hum of fans.
After two long weeks, shrill
noises cease, and I drown
in the void with no plans.
I will sit here and chill
with my books in a mound,
holding tomes in my hands.
Thought 2: Culture
There’s no one home but me and the cat.
Time to sing along with German opera!
Zu Hilfe! Zu Hilfe! Zu Hilfe!
Thought 3: More Culture
Hey! I can get caught up with my TBR.
Then, I can write some book reviews.
Though 4: Probable Reality
I wonder what’s on Netflix?
Have a suggestion for a poem, photograph, or future post?
Drop a note in the prompt box!
Don’t forget to follow me on:
Facebook – where I share news stories, articles from other blogs, and various and sundry miscellany that happens to catch my eye. It’s stuff you won’t see here! Well, mostly.
Instagram – where I show you my Life in Motion and share quotes and such. The widget only shows my last three photographs – don’t you want to see them all?
Twitter – where you can see my thoughts in 140 characters or less. Also, funny retweets.
But “you” is always an important thing to do
(Back away from the remote…)

Too late! However, I’m splitting my time between reading and watching TV. I came to a sort of compromise with myself.
