I was watching TV over dinner yesterday.
I turned off the TV midway and was clearing the "table".
I must have been diverted by some thought.
I placed the spoon next to the TV and the remote on the kitchen shelf.
And then i realized what I'd done.
Am sure I've done many similar things earlier.
Have you done or seen anyone doing something absent minded.
Let's amuse us. :-)

It was a somewhat infrequent occurrence, but when it happened it was "original comedy" ... everytime.
The first company I worked in, was a small one space wise.
The men's room saw high traffic and high occupancy.
It also used to be the occasional chat room.
For whatever reason, there used to be some guys who used to enter, then pause to wonder what they were doing there. A moment later the guy would pause bemused and realize he had entered by force of habit or remember the actual intended destination. Needless to say it was a tragicomic story for the then current occupants !

During exam days at school, I would often land up in the kitchen to take a bath.
I was a bundle of nerves.
