desperanceYou can tell I'm not in my right mind - I nearly forgot to put cumin seed in my dinner.
Not that I'm hungry at all; I'm only cooking on the general principle of the thing, and because there is food which will go off if I don't eat it, and because cooking is what I do at this time of day, and what would I do else but sit and watch the snow, and jitter?
The snow is not exactly heavy, it's just ... not stopping. It's like the rain which has been coming down all day. In fact it is the rain which has been coming down all day, just that it turned to snow when the sun went down. Assuming that the sun has been out there somewhere all this time, lurking. It did get darker, so there is some evidence of absence now, which implies a presence before.
It's very odd, this leaving-the-house-last-thing-at-night instead of first thing in the morning, which is my usual mode of travel. I've been doing stuff all day, in a desultory sort of way; I'm just starting to panic about what I may have forgotten, that will of course turn out to have been crucial. At the moment, the only thing I positively can't find is the new electrodes for the TENS machine. Which I bought yesterday, and am starting to wonder if maybe I left them in the shop...
Still. I have the old ones, which can be revivified with a mist of water. Unlike myself. I don't want to eat, but I do desperately want to drink; I just don't think I ought to. Heading off with a bottle of wine inside me would probably not be smart. Le sigh. *tries to be smart*
