Workplace Ennui

Cannot concentrate at work. From where my desk is, I can see an open laptop on a table right outside my cubicle. There's a little circular object floating slowly across and bumbing imaginary walls inside the computer screen.

Yes, this is the exact one. I had to get up from my desk and walk over to it. I'm suprised I didn't get sucked in and converted to binary.


I try to estimate where along the edges it will bump next. Ultimate pleasure is when it will undoubtedly soar directly into a corner, hitting two walls at once - a seriously rare sight.

This is like that episode of The Office when Michael is trying to hold a meeting and he thinks everyone is really interested but really they're so bored that they are rooting for the box to hit the corner on the screen behind him.

Wow, writers of The Office, you really know, don't you.
