I have a jar of earl gray tea on my desk and the lid isn't quite snug so occasionally I catch the scent of it and it's the nicest thing I've accidentally done for myself in a long time

Feeling wistful today. The old world, the old web — all of it. I always thought I was good at adapting to change, but these days I'm not so sure.
