See how ugly and grey it looks on this computer heat sink (not mine by the way, I stole the photo from Wikipedia).

I thought it again as I worked the vacuum from room to room. GREY
Insidious. Invasive. Detrimental to my health. Bad, bad, bad and not just because it forces me to work. Dust, and the need to clean it, could be the death of me.
I thought long and hard and finally I had an Eureka moment.
Dust is Alien. It is the work of an invading force that is trying to weaken the fabric my life. Bet they have piles and piles of it in Area 51. It came with THEM

THE GREYS

Oh, I love it! I've been chasing it around today too. I love the sunny days, but it sure shows where I've neglected the housework.
oh, i love this post! i love it!
i love the revelation about dust and i just love the rhythm and the style in which you wrote it. really sharp and snappy (like that bit about it being insidious etc.) and then leading into nice strong sentences.
Thanks. I should exercise my creative muse more often.
if this is the result you definitely should!!
Wow, E. That was really classic! I knew that dust was an incombatable force! This explains it!
