Gary had always had big thoughts, grandiose, even. Lately, though, his brain just felt tired, and the thoughts and ideas seemed to shrink in proportion to the fatigue. Maybe if he didn’t stay up so late reading GoComics, things might improve. That was an idea worth looking into. For now, he’d just head over to X-tech’s factory of fabulous fabrication, and see if he could borrow some of his big ideas.
Nothing at the moment. But having seen your work I’ll recommend you to a friend who does renovations on tree stump houses.Wait a sec Gary just tweeted me “DesignR Chn Sw”I’ll get back to ya.
Gary, you have my sympathy. I have found my ideas decrease as the pills I have to take increase. Just smile and let the rest of the world worry for you.
The last miniature pizza roll passed under his nose at a backyard wedding reception, and everyone lunged at the tempting hors d’oeuvre. Soon thereafter, out came the tiny celery and carrot sticks in a Mongolian yogurt cream dip. Each subsequent tray brought smaller more scrumptious morsels that, when prepared at home, usually come in larger sizes.Gary was struck with a brilliant, yet not so overwhelming idea: Are smaller portions considered more high society? If so, it explained the niggling notion that his grandiose concepts were being ignored simply due to their sheer magnitude. Were his BS neighbours secretly considering him a Johnny-come-lately? Shame and a reluctance to share too much of his mind forced his theoretical plans to shrink over time. And over that same time, he became aware that the mailman smiled at him, the neighbourhood watch didn’t avoid his corner, and more noticeably, Rusty, Miss Millie and the pack did.Small ideas… this was the way to go! Big enough still to notice, but small enough to be recognised for what they were… pure genius!
The thing about a small idea is you can roll it into a ball and toss it around. Or leave the unworked out bits dangling like the limbs of one of those wall walkers and toss it at the wall and see if it sticks.
The Ballard Neighborhood Association will have a talk with Gary later today. Small ideas are not in accordance with the local CC&Rs. He may have to move.
