oh god…that reminds me…i haven't had my coffee yet!….thanks for the laugh
This is funny! :-)
HILARIOUS!!! I've gone a few days just drinking Green Tea but then I'll have to go back to the bean to stay awake better. My MS causes fatigue (if that's the worst of it, that's cool) and so a half pot of coffee every morning gives me energy and I can actually do something useful besides sleeping! My stray dogs appreciate it! My Rottweiler will stand over me in bed and bark so I get up without an alarm clock! But drinking the bean helps tremendously…Caribou Coffee from MN has a great promo line: “Life Is Short–Stay Awake For It!”
I LOVE coffee. Shhh I started my son on coffee when he was like 10. Bad Mum,ey? But my mom started me on coffee what I was about the same age. I could drink a whole pot. But the gitters would catch up with me, so I've discovered half caff. Half regular and half decaff. So like drinking a whole pot is really only 1/2!! Right!
“Life Is Short–Stay Awake For It!”
I love that! Passing the pot! LOL
One time, semi-awake I poured water into my coffee maker to boil water for some tea, another time it was for some instant oatmeal, and forgot to check for a coffee filter, so my tea & oatmeal had some watered down coffee in it, not bad, really! It was an accident but a happy one!
I had to move the propane tank to put another fence in back and when they came to turn on the stove inside, I said, naw, why bother! I hardly cook so the pilot light was a waste of propane fuel…so that's how I boil water from Mr Coffee…I call my tea mixture “Tea-offee!”
:-) And if I forget to drink it all while its hot, I just add an ice cube and call it iced coffee (hopefully during Summer)…they even sell chocolate-covered coffee beans in some places! One time I was eating them and wondering why I was up for 2 days until someone told me “It wasn't just coffee flavored– They were real coffee beans!” Haha
