Once Upon A Time
“Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a girl who always wore a red riding…”
“Wait a minute!”
“What?”
“You wrote this story?”
“Yes.”
“About a girl called Little Red Riding Hood?”
“Yes, how didyou know that??”
“It’s not a new story.”
“It’s not?”
“No. Try again.”
“Ok…. Uhm … Once upon…”
“Not that bit.”
“Oh, ok. … there was a duck called Jemima Puddl…”
“Nope.”
“No?”
“No. That’s that not new either.”
“I don’t understand. I just made up these stories.”
“You must have heard them before.”
“I guess. Maybe I should do something else?”
“Like what?”
“Invent things. I had this really great idea for a round thing that goes round and round…”
“Wheel.”
“What?”
“Its called a wheel. Its not a new invention either. Look, why don’t you just chill and take it easy.”
“You mean like to do nothing?”
“Yeah.”
“But that’s pointless.”
“Yeah, so, what’s new?”


That’s cute…exactly what I’m doing now…nothing, though I have at least a dozen
tasks that I SHOULD be doing…and, both ankles and feet are so swollen, I should NOT be
sitting at this computer!
I spent all day doing the wheel thing. I’m taking a break now.
A meandering piece indeed – pointless except for the enjoyment it gives the reader
