Adventures in Japan no. 14

It was like a planned attack. It completely took me by surprise. Like he'd been stalking his prey and was waiting for the perfect time to strike.

I wish I had a rewind button to redisplay the incident.

I was sitting at my laptop planning my French lesson for tomorrow (Qu'est-ce que vous faites comme sport?), and a small flying bug made a mad-dive into my coffee cup. It wasn't casually flying or hovering over my cup, but flew at a perfect angle, rocket speed, directly into my coffee.

Normally I'd fish the bug out of my cup and continue drinking, but I don't have the energy tonight for that little bit of effort. I'm sure I won't even taste it.
