Daily field note

Your second thoughts can wait for the kettle

The glass on your kitchen windowsill has been there since Thursday, and your thumb hits the group chat before the kettle boils. Friends are fast today, and so is the urge to answer the plan someone dropped in at 7am. Your body has been asking for water for hours, and it is the slow voice worth listening to. Drink the glass first, then reply, and the answer you send will be one you actually meant.
