that I didn’t want had been sitting unopened in my room for a few weeks. This morning, on my way to work, I (deliberately) left it on the bus. I hope whoever found it will have arrived at their workplace all set for a happy Friday.

I’ve always been conscious of not wasting energy so I’m not sure how I hoped to make progress on this goal.
This year I moved to a different house, which has proved to be very difficult to heat. I’m often to be found wearing not one but two jumpers, but we still have the central heating on rather a lot too.
I don’t know where this came from. I think it’s one of those words that just turns up in anyone’s vocabulary for no real reason and forces itself out of their mouth ten times more often than is reasonable. I hope it will go away of its own accord but (just in case) here’s a way of focusing my attention on getting rid of it.
By the way, I really don’t mind “cool” in phrases such as “I think X is really cool” or “that’s a cool haircut!”. What’s been bothering me is that I keep saying “cool” as an interjection like “OK” or “All right”. Lately I’ve heard myself saying that word every time I try to wrap up a conversation with anybody…
