2019-09-06 - Cozy weather
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Today the weather is great. It has cooled down - from the 30
degrees celsius i wrote about earlier - to a nice and fresh 18
degrees C. Furthermore tonight it has been raining pretty much the
whole evening. Sitting here with a cup of tea and some cookies
makes me very content. It is noticable the days are already getting
shorter, as it is already getting pretty dark at 20:45 in the
night.
I guess i like the autumn and winter seasons because of this exact
feeling i'm having now; Sitting inside with a cup of hot tea,
quietly tinkering away with some silly computer stuff. Nothing to
worry about, being happy simply to be dry and warm inside my house,
while the rain is ticking away on the window in my roof.
Since the weather is bad, and it is dark already there is no need
to go outside, so i'm happily isolated in this small room in my
house. This helps me focus i guess. And the focus is not on
anything in particular, but on sitting inside, figuring stuff out,
while drinking tea.
Actually, i think i will make a new cup of tea in a bit and spend
some time reading a book. Or maybe i will play another bit of
adventuring with Dungeon Crawl. Hmm. Also i want to pick up some
programming things i have abandoned before the summer.
Ah well, lets hope it stays dark and rainy for some longer, so i
don't get distracted by everything happening outside. :)
This gopherspace thing is also quite cosy i feel, so very suitable
for this weather. There is something about plaintext. I don't know
if it is some kind of melancholy to earlier times, or if it is just
that plain text is just quieter, less present, and more patient or
something.
Hmm, maybe i should think about that for a while; why is plaintext
so great? Maybe it is a bit like being in a small cozy room, in
dark rainy weather with a cup of tea. Being isolated from the crazy
outside world (the big web) and being quite happy with the quiet,
and the focus.
