Who Is Keeping Count?

I think almost every person who drinks coffee and spent the previous day moving up three flights of stairs, definitely needs their fix of java the minute they wake up.

Coffee in general seems to have this calming effect on the body, as well as an oiling agent to the moans and groans of the body. Much like the Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz, we need that *oil to keep us going throughout the day, no matter if you are taking a long stroll down a yellow brick road or trying to focus though a mountain of paper work.

I made the mistake of taking a long walk without my usual cappuccino beforehand. To make matters worse, I did not even have one cup of tea yet OR my vitamins (which usually fizzy-lifts my ass into gear). Needless to say I was falling asleep in my favorite chair for a good portion of the morning while watching reruns of Saturday Night Live. (Impossible I know.)

Finally the realization kicked in that I had literally wasted most of the day away and all the things I promised myself I was going to do were not even started. So I walked over to my favorite cafe (located less than 40 seconds away from my apartment) and ordered my usual. Even though I got a latte, *do NOT get me started* it gave me my jolt of energy back and now I feel like conquering the world!

Well, the dishes and the laundry might be a good place to start the conquest.
