your mind takes off, on a flight into who knows where.
you reach that productive meditative state of pondering life’s deepest questions and their solutions (apart from 42 of course)
you don’t mind that you’re in a rickety autorickshaw with 8 other people crammed in
you’re in the goddamn zone, with the answer so close
you get it, the epiphany that makes you smile for a good while.
you think – damn, am i a smart kid or what?
you reach your destination, determined to let someone know of your cleverness
you pay the auto driver the Rs15, pause for change
you’re done transacting and you find a sympathetic ear.
you FUCKING FORGET ENTIRELY WHAT YOU WERE THINKING ABOUT including what it was that led you on your flight of fancy
you go home and write on your blog about it
yeah, that was my day today
(apart from 42 of course)
:)
Oh aif!!! That’s so frustrating! But, it will be back! It’s just hiding. The fact that you found the answer means it’s still in there… toying with you. :)
I’ve often felt like those types of “answers/ideas”, etc, are like little butterflies flitting around your head. You know it’s there, you know you just have to turn and look and all will be clear, but then the damn thing knows you’re going to look and as you turn, it flies out of your range of vision, but still hovering, it’s presence, palpable.
Let us know when you remember, cuz you will!
Just curious, but did The New Bluer, Blue Girl title this post?
the New Bluer BG would have had twice as many exclamation type words i think
also more references to asses of the ‘jack’ or ‘dumb’ variety
never figured you for a stoner, aif.
…I think I had three. Yeah, three.
What were we talking about?
lol
Don’t worry, aif, it will come back to you when you have nothing to write with and depart while you uncap your pen or power up your computer.
the epilogue : i remembered, and i am not sure that it’s that good. it’s gone down in my drafts and will stay there till i understand wtf it’s about!

What’s your point?!?!
you must find unusual and unexpected symbols such as the caret(^), the tilde (~) and various accompaniments to emphasize the BLEUness
