Remember to forget me!
Another "non-conformist" post, but I'm sure you're all very used to that from me now...
Yesterday, I found myself itching for a new thing. Of course, I don't actually need anything, but I'm sure you all know the itch I'm talking about. For me, that resulted in me wanting to want something, but unable to settle on something to pretend that I need...
Tobacco? Nah. I bought a tin of something new in December, to open in the New Year, but that's still sealed, waiting for a jar to come free. I don't want to buy something else that won't get used for ages.
Pipe? Nah. I calculated that my stash only gives me about 100 smokes each in the pipes I already have, so I wouldn't get my money's worth from another pipe.
Upgrade a pipe instead? Nah. None of my pipes are screaming out to be evicted and replaced. Even the cheapo pearwood pipes that still get enjoyed.
Lighter? Got a drawer full. Tamp? I'd still just use the Czech tool. New pen? Ink? Book? Hat? Knitting stuff? Kitchen stuff? Shaving? All stocked to excess.
So I went and got fish and chips from the local chippy. That cured it!
If it returns later in the week, I might get myself a bottle of gin.
