Dogs barking outside in the distance

Itches in random spots around my body

Stomach rumbling, though I only just ate!

Tea going cold faster than I can drink it

Rustling of paper, plastic or whatever the dogs are attacking now

Aches in random spots around my body

Cold feet, need my socks or slippers

Too much heat coming through the window

Is that a mark on the screen or just the cursor?

Old bladder issues - time for another toilet break

Now the computer has decided to switch itself off - great!
