am i going crazy??

[isabeau]

i can't believe it, it happened again. here i am, sitting at my computer, waiting for the kettle to boil so i can have my tea. i'm sitting here wondering why it hasn't whistled or even started that hissing noise. so finally i decide to go into the kitchen to see what is going on. i thought maybe i had forgotten to turn the gas on under the kettle. i see the kettle at the back of the stove, and realize it already boiled and that my tea is steeping, waiting for me.. this is like the third time this has happened to me in the last few months.. am i losing my mind?? it's rather strange.

Of course you're not going crazy! The way I see it, there are two possibilities. one, you suffered a cerebral flatulation (i.e. a brain fart) and poured your tea, went to do something else while it steeped, and just forgot about it. I do stuff like that all the time. Usually it's forgetting where I put my car keys, only to doscover I was holding them all the time. The other possibility is hubby came in, poured your tea, and set the bag to steep, and you were so wrapped up in whatever it is you were doing (getting tickled in your thread perhaps, or reading yet another blonde joke by Venray or somebody), that you didn't notice. That happens to me as well. The third possibility is that you are, in fact going crazy, in which case I am probably a figment of your imagination. Or did I just blow your mind???????? I wouldn't stress over it. So long as the gas isn't on while the pilot light is out, you'll be OK, darlin'.

You are blonde. Therefore it is acceptable behaviour.

Is the whistle broken?

Maybe the whistle has broken.

 

[milagros317]

Sounds like normal absent-mindedness to me.

 

[isabeau]

no tisn't broken.. i had already poured it into my cup. that what is what was so weird. it had whistled, i had gone in and poured the water, and came back into the living room. and here i sat, waiting for it to whistle again.. gesh, i surely hope it's not the beginning of alzheimer's.. you can start having symptoms as early as your late forties. and since i'm fifty, hmm

You know, I forgot about the cat. Beware of the cat, Melanie! I have three, and I just know they're plotting to take over. Last night, as I was falling asleep, I swear I heard one of them jump on the piano. Five minutes later, I swear they started playing Heart & Soul! They're lulling us all into a false sense of security with their relaxing purrs and their cute, let's-chase-the-yarn routine, and their soft, fluffly cuddly ways. They're evil! Eeeeeeeeeeeevilllllllllll!!!!!!!!!


Seriously, you probably just forgot you poured the tea. Or it was the cat.

I personally do not subscribe to the "Blonde" theory...There is no scientific proof that Blondes are any more or less dizzy than females of other persuasion...A lotta speculation, a lotta effort on the part of your fellow Blondes, but no hard evidence. Nor do I reckon you are crazy. A trifle addled possibly, as you DO frequent this forum regularly like the rest of us warped proverts.

Obviously, Dear Lady, you are sharing your domicile with a Poltergiest with an affinity for tea, same as you. Remember "Pirates of the Carribean," where the ghost Captain is always trying to get people to eat apples? Or the drunken skeleton in "The last Unicorn," who still craved wine? The being can't taste or enjoy the tea itself, so it's only avenue is to watch someone close enjoy.

There is possibly another, more insidious explanation: I recall in the chatroom some months ago, you said you are "Tickle Deprived"...If this has begun to affect your perception of reality, we could have a serious problem. You better scoot yourself on out to Iowa quickly, I have some experience in treating this particular malady. No charge, but it could well require repeated applications.

bugman, yea i know..

Kettle not stove,..... just a kettle to only boil water for tea, even the cheapest one has a security switch, therefore, if you forget so what? your water would only get cold.....
the water cannot boil dry, the kettle cannot melt, the gas cannot kill you...and if your mind becomes with the fantasies.....well it does not matter.
