I tear open two packets of instant oatmeal, pour them into my mug, and then wait for the kettle to boil… wait… wait… wait…
A watched pot never boils, right?
I should probably go get dressed. Or sync up my phone. Maybe use my ear and nose hair trimmers. Or…
I hear the quiet rustle of water, so I pick up the kettle and pour.
Stirring with a spoon… scoop out a bit of oatmeal.
Not too thick, not too soupy.
I tear the lid off of a cup of yogurt, dip it in the oatmeal, and…
Tasting… strawberry.
Perfect.
