waiting for tea to cool
so i've just made a cup of tea. and i wanna sip it. but it taunts me! i take a sip and it bits my tongue and leaves me cursing the heat. i want to drink the tea so much. i made it because i wanted to drink it straight away, i already had to wait minutes for the kettle to boil, no i have to wait even more minutes for it to cool down?! how silly!
how long do you leave your tea before you drink it, or do you do the headache-inducing blow-sip-blow-sip routine favoured by the impatient? what activities do you do to keep yourself occupied while waiting for it to cool? i can't immerse myself entirely in an activity whilst waiting for it to cool as i find that i will forget about it and then curse it even more as i pour it down the drain.
