Just A Quickie

On the bus this afternoon, I happened to overhear just a couple things from the boy sitting behind me. I was counting the words of one of the things he said, thinking it could be cool as a 6-worder, and then he said something else (about a completly unrelated thing), and I thought it worked really well:

Stays up all night: Oh Jesus.

Yeah, think about it. I mean, it's not as brilliant as Hemingway, but you can go a lot of directions with it. Hm. I like it.

It's fun to listen to bits and pieces of what strangers are saying and create your own story about what's going on.

Although I'm going to take that 6-worder as a sign that at 2am it's time for bed. We shouldn't be allowed to blog past a certain hour!
