Reused

I badge out, wait for the all-important beep from the timekeeping machine, have my mailman bag checked by the guard on my way out, instinctively enter the first elevator that opens and stick my iPod earbuds underneath my shirt, guiding them into my auditory orifices as I make my descent. From the ground floor of our office building to one of the FX terminals behind that big mall at the border of Pasig and Mandaluyong, I walk. And I contemplate my navel, while a rather poignant song is playing in my ears.

Usually what I do during my afternoon walks from work is listen to a How Stuff Works podcast episode and learn exactly how Murphy’s Law works or why toothpaste makes orange juice taste bad. Some work-related thing though has ticked me off and caused me to think about matters so pressing that they would only muffle the voices of hosts Josh and Chuck as they try to explain, say, how Albert Einstein’s brain worked, were I to listen to said podcast.

I think I want to moonlight. Light. I think I really need to gain some weight. Weight. I think I’ll buy me a blue basket chock-full of Hershey’s and some macadamia nuts. Nuts. I think I really ought to do laundry and end things once and for all between me and my undies tonight. Night.
