It's Just Another DayA Story by Christine PetersI wake up -
Heck it's only five-thirty and the morning sun is struggling to get through.
It's to early to rise, so I must try hard to sleep on..,
But the thought of a hot sweet cup of tea soon forces me from my bed.
I turn on my television. Lots of latest news but also many adverts threatening that if I do not take out a funeral plan, my family will hate me forever.
I get washed at my sink and clean my teeth.
Hell knows why for I am going nowhere today.
I need to toilet - it's a big moment of my day,
But much of that time is spent with only hardcore e-motions.
It's now twelve o'clock.
Time to eat.
The Supermarkets have meals for families, for two or just one.
I just have a meal for a sad-one that I hate but must eat something for life's-sake.
My dinner goes ping and I sit down to eat and watch a TV game-show.
I know most of the answers because I have lived far too long.
I look at my television magazine to see what other delights I have to look forward to.,
Nothing so special on my fifty million selection on subscription TV.
I take an afternoon nap (mainly to kill most of the day).
I wake up only to find that the postman has called and has left me tons of junk mail to add to my disposal stack.
I slump back in my chair. Check the clock. I only have six more hours to go before I can escape back to bed again.
I have great contacts with the Internet, Email and a Smart Phone., but all often remain dormant unless I get a contact for PPI, double glazing or when things get real exciting - " a penis enlargement!".
O' why did I not join a gang when I had the chance., to become a drug baron or team up with people like the Krays. I missed my chance by not joining in with the 'right' people.
At ten, I go to bed. Curl up in my duvet and have sweet dreams.
What a day., and all I gotta do is follow the same tomorrow.
Pretty soon it will be next week and then next year.
Aint life really worth looking forward to.
