Just an ordinary day

I didn't go to bed last night
I stayed up all night watching Frasier on DVD
and drinking water

For most of the day I was on the computer
looking at web comics, while
trying to decide if I should write a poem or two

I went to Alexandria with my sister to have lunch with a friend
we laughed and ate expensive hamburgers
while talking about my sister's impending engagement

Driving back home we listened to Backstreet Boys
and I tried to take a nap
while listening to my sister talk about her life

I am home now, bored as usual
all my online friends aren't online yet
I suppose my room could use some cleaning

I know I should do laundry
and I could go downstairs and converse with my parents
but I wanted to write a poem instead








Author notes

I wrote this after a friend posted a similar piece on AP. I loved the idea and knew I had to do my own, but I was unsure how to go about it. Here is what I've come up with.

    Nice. It's a lot like a letter, and it works on its own level.
