tea is so wonderfully calming

Today was cold.
This may or may not make sense to you, but lately I've been feeling like my thoughts are floating about a foot above my head in a red balloon that sways back and forth ever so slowly and only a little bit eerily.
This of course makes thinking clearly quite unclear.
I find it fantastic whenever I get the nerve to strike up a conversation with a stranger. I've noticed that there's a small window of opportunity that such an exchange can socially acceptably occur. Walking up to the bus, you take stock of the people also standing, waiting there; you briefly make eye contact and maybe nod your head as if to say, "yup we are waiting for the bus at the same time." That is when the flash moment occurs, when it is imperative to say Something, like, "nice weather we're having, huh?" or "Did the 66 bus come by, do you know?" or "are you headed into town?"

okay, I'm rather distracted, because Stacey and I are watching Clue. =)
so, the end for now.
