I can't wait more than 3ticks over just a smidge from now for bed

So my sister and I devised a genious chart for explaining to someone how long ago something happened or how long you can wait for something to happen. I figured I pass the findings on to my reading public.

Past
10min ago is a tick
30min ago is a smidge
1hr ago is a skosh ('skOsh)
1hr 30min is a bit
2hrs ago is a while

Future
Same scales as above
(I can wait 10min would be a tick, I can wait 30min would be a smidge, etc...)

Now here's the kicker. The term "just" or "little" can be used to subtract 15min from the time normally allotted for the word in the case of 30min-2hrs and 5min in the case of "tick." Lastly you can use a number before tick at any time to denote a minute. Also, it doesn't have to flow if you don't want it to. "It happened a 2ticks over a little skosh ago" is totally acceptable (47min ago). (Granted "I can wait 2ticks more than just a tick"(7min) doesn't sound the best and this is limited up to 2hrs but eh, any suggestions out there in blogger land? You can't use actual time designations)

Enjoy,
in Christ,
