I let my music stop playing so I could prepare to draft out a review, but that was at least a good few minutes ago and I haven’t started. I’ve drifted off to some other place and all that, but also the need to do work as I am currently at work has distracted me and so the absence of music is a bit of an odd one at this particular moment.

I guess it is odd as I spend a lot of time listening to music, so right now not having that and having something that’s close to silence instead is a bit odd as I usually listen to a lot of music.

I wonder if it is going to affect how this will turn out, but maybe it won’t. I guess it would in the way that I will talk about this as it is something that is happening, but beyond that I imagine the writing will be similar to what it usually is, as is the way of these things on the odd occasion, with the odd occasion being constantly, but I digress.

Sitting here and I hear sounds that I usually hear so nothing changes there. I notice some machine buzzing a bit more, but outside of that there is no rhythm and melody hitting my ears. There is little else going on but I sit here and I think about the sounds that aren’t coming from my speakers a bit more.

I think there is little to think about in this particular setting, but then again there always is a lot to think about and so I just sit here and I think about what I am doing and what is going on and all of those other things that I think about. Is there anything here that I can offer beyond my noticing that there is no music playing from my speakers right now? Of course there is plenty that I could offer, but I sincerely doubt that anything like that will happen today, if it will indeed happen at all.

I think that instead of that I will just look outside my window and appreciate the late afternoon glow as soon sunset will be here and that is not something I can prevent; nor is it something that I would want to prevent. Maybe I will experience it without music, but there are things to be done that involve music and so the quiet must last for only a few more minutes before it must disappear. Otherwise it will last more than a few more minutes and I’m just struggling to get things written, but sometimes that’s just the way things go and therefore I should get on with it all, if there is even anything to get on with.

So anyway, the thing to take away from this is that I wrote a bunch of words and didn’t say much with them. I guess that’s roughly less than usual. Not quite sure.

The time it took to write five-hundred words: 05:50:45

I think that this is alright for how fatigued I am at the moment, but that’s all I can say because it’s pretty empty writing.

Written at home.
