being and nothingness

hello? is anybody home?
what can I do for you?
sorry, I couldn't find the door bell. I'm selling magazine subscriptions to get through college. do you live here?
can't say live. it's an existence.
perhaps Better Homes and Gardens would be perfect for you.
you think it will help with this place?
I doubt it, but you might like the pretty pictures.
no thanks. you got Futility and Angst Monthly?
of course. one of our best sellers in this neighborhood.
what a surprise.
yes, it's curious.
