I think what you have to do in life is take the ordinary
and make it extra-ordinary.
Take for instance the evening cup of tea accompanied
by the Tesco own Fruitcake biscuit.
NORMALLY this is an act where you may be sitting, or you could be a
little more “riskae” and stand, but preferably you are slobbing on the couch
infront of some shit on the telly when you know you really should be doing
something else.
Not me.
Often my fella and I like to improvise around a
situation. Why do something in an
everyday normal day-way??
In this case, my mouth was improvised into a
letterbox for the biscuit letter to be posted into. At first, it was rather fun not only genuinely
trying to make the mouth an accurate rectangular shape, thus imitating the
casual letterbox, (do this infront of the mirror. You’re not, not going to enjoy it)
(SEE)
...and receiving
the neatly rounded biscuit letter in full, but then the whole action seemed to develop
into a fully rounded scene.
A little something like this…(in this instance Thom
be the letter box, fella: the happy biscuit letter poster)
Happy Biscuit Letter Poster, of course whistling
like a Happy Biscuit Letter Poster should do, strides toward letterbox that
waits expectantly at the bottom of the street (we don’t have a street in our
kitchen so, obviously, there’s a lot of walking on the spot action going on)
reaches the letter box, pulls biscuit letter from pocket and begins posting
action in a thoroughly self-satisfied way, but
WHATS THIS?
Halfway through posting action, biscuit
letter has to be retrieved because, wouldn’t you know? Happy Biscuit Letter Poster
has forgotten to put the much needed stamp on.
And do you know how annoying that is to have a biscuit letter being
posted in your face and it not reaching the bottom of the letterbox?
VERY ANNOYING.
Anyway, in the end, the letter was received and never
read because it was eaten before it got to where it had to go. And I’m not sure where that was.
