These really are the first/only thoughts I've had for months...
I was journeying across town though the park on my way home this Saturday evening. Imagine my surprise to find that it really is filled with groups of lurking yoofs! I thought that was just a myth.

Although it was only 6pm, so I was pleased to note that they were starting early. I can't stand a youth that stays in brooding until midnight, and only then goes out partying.

Recently, I've found myself making a lot of cups of tea I don't finish. I usually drink about two thirds of the tea, and then forget about it. I'd like to think this is a sign of how thrusting and work-focused I am. But I fear it's a sign of creeping absent-mindedness that can only end in me not being able to find my arse with both hands. On the other hand, I seem to be surrounded by people who can't find their arse with both hands, so maybe it would be for the best.

Just this evening I noticed the same thing about my cups of tea. It's irritating because I got new boxes of tea yesterday, two kinds I especially like, and if anything I'm drinking less than I did of normal tea! I don't even know if it's absent-mindedness in my case or just procrastination. I should learn that tea comes with its own countdown timer; I hate it when it's even lukewarm.

A good cup of tea is something you really must sit down and appreciate... Even worse times than leaving some tea is to realise that you've finished it all off without realising!

O where is my tea gone?!

Yes, you're very right. One of the most important things about a cup of tea is the little bubble of time and calm it creates. That's why this is such a worrying development.

Hey it's Louise. I realise you don't post on this much at the moment but I thought I'd inform you anyway I have a new LJ username just in case you start posting exciting things about wool etc.

Kewel! I have been reading quite a lot recently, so I may start posting again, too, someday.
