(no subject)
In an attempt to get some sense of writing skill back, I joined Katie's community words_challenge. I'll post this drabble I managed. I have been completely dry in the inspiration department lately. Just ignore this if you wish, I've gotta post it here to enter it.
Title: Your day
Prompt: Birthday
Word Count: 150 exactly
Fandom (if any): Original
Rating: G
The clatter of keyboards and the ringing of telephones melts into the customary background of office life. Bored, thoughtless faces are scattered over the room, paying no attention to anything but the soft glow of light coming from the screen in front of them. Today is just another day, and everyone around you performs the usual routine that is necessary to earn the paycheck at the end of the week, and that is all that matters. You woke up with a hope of something different, hope that today could be your day, but the hope was quickly distinguished when you realized that the world had not stopped spinning just for you. You were greeted with a “Happy Birthday,” and it soon became a distant memory to everyone but you as the humming of fax machines resumed, removing any hint of the words lingering in the air. This is your day.
5 Days From Now I'll Be On My Way To Hawaii!
I'm exhausted from this week. I need some sleep so I can go shopping tomorrow for clothes.
