It was inevitable… it had to happen one day, and today was that day.
The sun was streaming in through the windows, the birds were singing cheerfully, I was working on my next archaeological assignment… I was at my computer desk, stuff piled around me as I worked, including three ceramic items I was writing about for my assignment. A couple of cold cups of tea and coffee were by my elbow where I had forgotten to finish them as I worked.all was well, all was peaceful, I was happy.
The phone rang and made me jump and I leapt up… the half full cups of cold drink went flying everywhere, a woman in a faint voice was asking me about blocking my phone calls as I stood, phone in hand, dripping with cold tea and coffee.
“You’ll have to ring me back! I’ve just knocked over a cup of coffee!”
I put the phone down and surveyed the inundation… it was bound to have happened one day…
Maybe there are advantages of having a tidy desk…
