silence. OH! its a drabble :) i like when that happens

a man came up to the desk, dropping a small blue sheet of paper with indecipherable words scribbled on it. he stood squarely against the desk, drilling his hands into the wood as if no one would move him from his position. he asked clearly and explicitly for CD5396. i retrieved the album but upon returning to the desk, there was no man. i looked around to see if anyone had noticed the disappearance, but not a head turned. supervisors and students continued their work or reading or whatever they did. i returned the cd and continued about my day.

  2. HMMM...I think the man didn't truly exist...And what is CD5396? That would be an interesting clue as to the nature of the phantom. He may have been a visitor from another dimension and slipped through a tear in the fabric of the universe and then realized he was in the wrong place!!! That is what I think, anyway.
