Where datadink longs for science-fiction

Aj, aj aj. I look at the city's horizon and wish that it was more interesting. Higher houses, round towers with glass cupicles at the top, dark houses with unpenetrable windows, hoover cars speeding in a line silently past my window, colorful people with interesting lives and goals and higher hopes.

Instead I see series of houses that all look more or less the same. I see a city that seems to die a peaceful death each night and doesn't come to live again until early next morning when the sun starts to shine. And soon it'll be worse. Soon it'll start coming to live in the early hours of darkness. Darkness which will last for a long time. Unpenetrable, cruel darkness only letting the light in for a few hours each day. It makes the people dim and dull. It makes the hopes low and the goals waver.

I guess reading is my best option. Or perhaps a good movie?
Reality has never been my thing, really.
