RECIPE FOR CONTEXT-SWITCHING
Ingredients:
1 overcast sky, unbroken
3 browser tabs you meant to close yesterday
1 lunch you double-booked on purpose
(you won't admit this)
A fistful of hours, loosely packed
1 device, uncharged, left on the nightstand
like a promise you made to a version of yourself
who had more mornings
Method:
Combine the sky with the emails until homogeneous.
Fold in the lunch gently — do not overmix.
The conversation will rise on its own.
When the colour changes from grey to something
you don't have a name for,
remove from heat.
Let the device rest.
It was never measuring what mattered.
Yield: one Thursday.
Serving size: exactly one life.
Chef's note:
The diagonal slash of yellow
that changes everything —
you can't add it.
It adds itself.
