But it's already a great comfort to me to have something to nibble on while I wait for a program to download or an idea to form up or a web page to arrange itself on the screen. Clearly, my stomach is calling the shots. The interesting thing about habits, especially at this time of the year, is that you only tend to think about them when you want to break them. This can be very frustrating, as any dieter or smoker or heavy drinker or abuser of any substance already well knows. Habits are so very, very comforting.
Comfort is so very fleeting.
There will be no breakage in this household. Instead, we're going to make a brand new habit and let it overwrite the old one. Suddenly, you're vividly aware of the whole process of the act, every step of the way. But you can grasp the idea. Cross your legs the other way.
