Why do I go out for coffee, when both I and the other person order tea, but have people over for tea, even if we end up drinking hot chocolate or whatever? Not a real question, just a funny thought.
I bought a new diary today. I've been having a real desire to write with pen on paper lately, which I haven't wanted to do in ages (I didn't bring my most recent diary with me because it had only 5ish pages left, and I write in it fairly infrequently, since most things go here on LJ). Lately however, that's where I've wanted to do a bunch of processing, and doing it in a book is much nicer and wiser, so I went out and found a new diary. It's amazing how good it feels to write in a diary, once in a while. It feels very different from typing. Usually I don't like slowing down enough to write by hand when I don't need to (although I always take notes by hand; I can't imagine doing it on computer without learning less). But there's an intimacy to handwriting that sometimes I want and need. It's nothing profound, but my head feels a little cleaner afterward. Maybe I'll even get my mind clear enough for this space to turn a little more thoughtful than it has been of late.
