Torn

Between wanting to rush all the way to the end of something you're really enjoying because you want to know WHAT HAPPENS, DAMMIT! and wanting to savour every last little bit, because you're aware that when it's over, it's over, and you can never again experience it for the first time.

Things that fall into this category include:

• The Aubrey Maturin novels
• The super expensive posh chocolates that the housemates bought me for my birthday
• The just-started-last-night final episodes of The Sopranos

I don't want it to be over.
