Rant + Story + Modified Morning Pages or Afternoon Page because I woke up late

This is my first attempt at 'Morning Pages'. I Googled it and I was supposed to write it in pen and paper. But this saves time and I have not developed the habit of going back and editing blocs of text yet. Also since I'm not doing it exactly as it is, I'll do one page a day instead of the usual three. One page is good enough for a blogpost too, I gather. I am not sure how long I will keep this up, because I like to take the excuse of 'real life' getting in the way of all things creative and amusing and beautiful. Notice how I did not capitalized 'real life'. This either shows that I do not consider it as notable as Whales, or have gotten bored of directing sarcasm at its importance. Like 'Life' and 'School' and 'Exams' and stuff. I like school and life and exams, but they have gotten old and repetitive and the young and stupid side of me yearns for more.

That concludes one paragraph. Now on to another paragraph. Maybe I'll write a story now. Here goes.

One day there was a house and in that house was nothing because the house was old and dilapidated. No one lived in that house, but the house was not sad because it was not alive and technically did not have feelings. However, no one had ever bothered to ask if the house had feelings, so even if it did, no one would know anyway. If no one knew, the house probably did not have feelings. It was something like that riddle; 'If a tree falls in an empty woods, will it make a noise?' I would think it does, because noise requires the vibrations of air particles (and other particles. Tree particles? Ground particles?). But what about noise? Is the presence noise dependent on a person feeling annoyed by it? Of is something noise if it has no use? Well, I still think that it makes a noise, because if I imagine it and then it exists in my head and I'm hearing the noise. This brings to mind St. Anselm's argument about the Existence of God. The Ontological Argument. It contains arguments like 'if god exists in your imagination, but then god is so awesomely greater than what you can conceive, then god must exist in the real world because existing in the real world is awesomely greater than existing in your mind. I won't go into my stand on the existence of god and gods right now. We have a story to continue.

The next day, the house was still there. The house was not rotting because it existed in a place where time did not pass. It sort of did, but didn't, because while there were days, nothing changed. It was sort of like existing in a perpetual state of preservation. A museum piece that never rusted, never got dusty, never got eaten by moths or prodded by over-eager fingers. Another day, a dimension-traversing wolf stumbled upon the house, and regarded it with a sniff of his snout.

“Whose idea was it,” he said, “to build a house here?”

There was no one there, so no one replied. The wolf shook his head, and entered the house. In the house was a bottle of magic elixir, a panacea, a cure for all ailments. But then, the house was not supposed to have anything, and since now it had something in it, the dimension it existed in became unstable and started to collapse. “Whoops, that's my cue,” said the wolf, and he grabbed the glowing blue bottle and dashed out into a dimension with sky-whales and muffin-waffles.

The instability of the blue bottle followed the wolf.

The dimension with sky-whales and muffin-waffles had a seaport empire built on trade, and the wolf was one of its many familiar vendors. The wolf donned his coat of a hundred murdered birds and melted into the crowd of merchants and fortune-seekers, their wares and offerings clinking and clanking in suspicious-looking gunny sacks promising wonders. The wolf's sack did not promise any sort of wonders, and was dull gray. This was sort of a rule in seaport trading squares and fantasy stories; the showier you are, the less impressive or important your wares, and the duller, shabbier you are the more magical, exotic, mindblowing, I-have-the-potential-to-save-the-world are your things.

The wolf felt a tap on his shoulder.
