Disappointment and Expectation

The internet cannot provide what isn't there.
If you are bored, there is only so much entertainment that it can provide if you don't know what you want.
There is nothing as soul destroying as having no new emails - no bold text at the top of the list to make your heart lurch. Or seeing the message:
'your profile has been viewed 0 times today'
To see that your facebook page remains static -no pokes, no wall posts. Just your face staring back at you, and the detritus of old news.
And then to reach into your pocket and look at your phone screen, your wallpaper blankly heralding a lack of communication from anyone.
