What are you thinking right now?

[Caspin]

I think that's normal behaviour for many people, Paul, so I wouldn't worry!

What does annoy me, as it happens, is when people think I am (a) doing nothing and (b) must therefore be bored. Sometimes I'm not doing nothing, even though it may look that way. I am just sitting still, thinking. It isn't boring. Leave me alone! For a year or so I lived in a small flat that was opposite a friend's flat. We just ended up living on the same street by chance. Sometimes she would phone me up and say things like "I see you are just sitting there in the yard doing nothing, you must be bored, I'm coming over to entertain you", then come over and talk at me for hours and I would go nuts because actually I was very busy - relaxing! In the end I moved.
