Day 69 - A blog about "nothing".
Today I agreed to write the blog about a day in which we did nothing (apologies to the great Larry David for my paraphrasing).
PHIL: Angela, I think I can sum up today for our Blog with one word: NOTHING.
ANGELA: Nothing?
PHIL: (Smiling) Nothing.
ANGELA: (Unimpressed) What does that mean?
PHIL: Today's blog is about nothing. You see, it's just like life. You know, you eat, you go shopping, you read.. You eat, you read, You go shopping.
ANGELA: All right, tell me, tell me about the stories. What kind of stories?
PHIL: Oh, no. No stories.
ANGELA: No stories? So, what is it?
PHIL: Well for example, what'd you do today?
ANGELA: I got up and sat down to work.
PHIL: There's our blog. That's a blog.
ANGELA: (Confused) How is that a blog? Does something happen while I am working?
PHIL: No, no, no. Nothing happens.
ANGELA: Well, why would anyone read it?
PHIL: Because it's in the blog.
ANGELA: (Threatening) Not yet.
Eventually Angela capitulated so I am going to write about nothing.
