Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Coma Couch

I didn’t work in the garden yesterday. I didn’t go to Lincoln. I didn’t even go to a dinner.

I read.

I sat on the couch and read. Then I played on the computer a little. Then I read some more. It felt a little weird, but it was at the same time glorious. I got a little more than a third of the way through my book. I don’t really like it. Lloyd asked me last night if I was someone who had to finish a book once I started it.
Yes. Yes I am.

I should be done in two more days anyway, right?

It's a very comfortable couch.

    Lloyd, in answer to your question … No. No I’m not!

    • Lloyd

      Great, I don’t remember the question anymore. Does anyone remember? Was it, “Are you capable of human emotions?”

      • Lloyd

        No takers. Huh. I thought that would be a fun game.

    Why did your opening paragraph remind me of one of the Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything songs? Was this intentional or just serendipitous (I paid a lot for that word so I’m going to use it)?

    Oh, I didn’t go to Lincoln
    and I wasn’t in the garden
    but I did stay in and read a (bad) book
    sitting on the couch
    And tomorrow I’ll keep reading

    Keep on sitting ’till my gut grows a big pouch”

    A day of doing nothing – THAT’S a true vacation day! (Reading is actually doing something, but you know what I mean.)

    Did you really lie so that your head was on the flower pillow and unable to see the TV? Because that’s just wrong.

    • Lauren

      When I was here (reading through stacks of papers), the t.v. was off and it was quiet. Weird. Peaceful, but weird.

    Yay for doing nothing!! I think you more than deserve it!

    I’ve been doing alot of nothing…but I skipped doing alot of something to be worthy of the nothing. 🙁

    What are you reading, Brad? (So I can skip it.)
