I used to just drop into this thread sporadically to trade witty quips about single malt whiskey! Nothing more! Just passing through!
Then you got your tannic tentacles into my soul! Smothered me in loose-leaf temptations! Shamed my tea-bags into oblivion!
NOW I'm pursued from room to room by the wail of my whistling tea kettle [having been warned NEVER to nuke water in the microwave] that sounds like a loon in heat!
I find myself craving a cuppa after meals! Dreaming of riffling through the myriad envelopes of samples on the cabinet shelf now containing nothing but tea! Frantically blowing on a freshly steeped cup, impatient to savor its richness!
Coworkers are looking at me strangely, clutching their cups of stewed coffee, muttering about alien abduction.
My cats are perpetually disappointed each time I open a new sample envelope - instead of an envelope of cat treats!
My desk is covered with scribbled notes of tea varieties I can't even pronounce!
I've been assimilated by the TEA BORG!
Resistance was futile!
[thank you!]
