It may have been a blood sugar level issue.
Or a low state of caffeination.
I am fortunate that two people in particular did not come in. If they had, talk would have been nightmarishly unreal, as they are at the centres of mighty strange private universes, and one must be firm with them.
Some people should never be allowed to drive.
Actually, make that "most people".
Conversation is a vehicle that is easily steered astray.
