I'm feeling good today and I even took
less anti-nasea medication. I spoke with the doctor as well. He
advised me to eat a larger breakfast with the medication. I hope this
pattern continues. Also this was my last day on Keppra, the
medication that was really messing with me so much and was one of the
biggest reasons I had difficulty with schoolwork. It could make the
simplist tasks make me feel crazy, but I'm glad I've stopped taking
it and it'll be out of my system in a few days. It's hard to express
just how joyous I am. I suppose I'll just go for a simple HUZZAH! on
this blog post. XD Now onto the flash fiction!
Browsers Get Paid By The Hour
“Hey guys,
how's your day going?” a young Internet browser named Tom said to
his fellow coworkers in cyberspace in the lunch room. He remained
perpetually chipper despite the fact he never drank cyber coffee.
“My user's cheating on his homework again. Just types the question into the search bar and I get the answer for him as usual. How about you guys?”
“My user's cheating on his homework again. Just types the question into the search bar and I get the answer for him as usual. How about you guys?”
“The cat
videos.” the browser named Sally said with a tired, crazed look in
her eyes. “For hours my user looks at the videos. It never stops.
Why won't it stop? Hours of cute cuddly cats. It's the Internet.
There are other websites. Why doesn't she look at them instead of
them? Why does it have to be cats? Why does she have to look at
videos of cute, cuddly cats everyday? For hours on end. Why? I don't
care if its dogs instead. Just make it stop.” Sally held back tears
as she started eating her cyber lunch. She needed the energy as
uploading so many videos took its toll on her.
“As usual my
user has been downloading, um, 'inappropriate content'” Jeremy said
with a frown. “I'll just leave it as that.”
“Yeah, yeah.
Well, at least your users do one thing at a time.” Sam said while
holding his cup of cyber coffee firmly.“My user had six. SIX chat
windows open. Five of them with people that each called her BFFs. BFF
means Best Friend Forever. How can you have multiple best friends? IT
DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. And worst is that she puts smiley faces
everywhere! Does she breathe in air and breathe out smiley faces? And
she says lol in response to almost everything! Its like its the only
word she knows! If someone says something funny than sure. But her
boyfriend says 'I went to the park and saw a friend I hadn't seen in
awhile' and she said 'lol'. It doesn't make any sense! How's that
funny? I don't get it!” Sam started drinking his cyber coffee
“Wow, your
users sound nuts.” said Jessie a calm browser holding a cyber
sandwich. “My user just posted a flash fiction on his blog today.”
Langdon, love your post today. Glad you're feeling better and hope to see continuous improvement. Your flash made me smile--befoer my own cyber coffee, even. Very clever!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you loved it! I like it when I make people smile. Thanks also for wishing me well, I'm also feeling better today too. I wish good times to you too. Have a wonderful day and I hope you enjoy my next story just as much.
DeleteI should have seen it coming...but I didn't! Made me gasp out loud at the end there, which isn't something I do often. BRAVO!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm happy you liked it. I'm always glad when I have stories that have those endings that really pull it all together.
