Reminds of 'the cup of tea' time measurement, as in, 'We'll go when I've finished my cup of tea'.

I was wondering if this might be on Mary Jane. Haha. Let's hope today's period does not turn into a century. Good one, John

This made me laugh... Guilty as charged for loitering in poems... : D (I even lingered a little longer here...) Point well taken, John.
