the fog of morning nevers lifts until afternoon so stay in bed!


where's my coffee

First you staggard into the kitchen
stumbling into the doorframe
then you get the coffee from the
refridgerator trying not to drop the
whole container.
Next, you put the filter into the basket
count out each scoop,
one
two
three
(was that three or two?)
three
four
make them level!
Oh now there's coffee grounds
on the floor!
crap!
oh well just punch the "on" button.
Easy!
go sit at the computer
wait
wait
smell?
sound?
go get your coffee.
but you look in the carafe
and there is
nothin'
What the @@@@!
where's my coffee!
look inside the machine,
the grounds aren't even wet
oh, did I forget
the water
again!
I'm going back to bed.

Four scoops! You need four scoops! Sister if it's that bad, (and I know how it can be) maybe you should just spit in it! Loved this one!

Lolol... I'm a night person, so I fully agree... Stay in bed until afternoon! But since thats not a possibility, I go on my woozy way until about 10...
I almost gave up coffee.. the only exception to that rule is my mom's coffee... I need that to get my kickstart for the day!
Great write Kath... and sweet dreams!
