how can we have so many drinks threads and not have one for coffee?
it’s a funny looking word, isn’t it?
this commercial was important during my formative years:
coffee
credit lx:

lingy finally finished the chocolate covered coffee beans he left here in june.
“What kind of coffee?”
“Doesn’t matter. I make lousy coffee no matter what kind I get.”
“Do you measure?”
“Sure, and it’s still lousy. Coffee just isn’t — I nearly said ‘my cup of tea.’”
— The Winter of Our Discontent, John Steinbeck
For my higher English class, I started to try and read the Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, but after about ten minutes, decided it was massive and not shaping up well, so changed to George Orwell’s 1984, which was much smaller and also, I’d seen the film.
ha! a boy in my 9th grade class got in trouble for choosing ‘the old man and the sea’ because it was so obvious he chose it for being the shortest book he could find.
Haha! As if that should be a problem! Well, that’s the way teachers are I suppose.
My only regret, is that my essay about 1984 didn’t just pretty much expand on the Eurythmics hit of a few years previous Sex crime (1984)
jergins’ ma brought this sticker from nyc for him, but he knew it was no good trying to keep it

I needed change for the bus on Sunday on lower QA and walked around going “pizza? no. Dick’s? no. book? no. Roti? no.” Then got down to that Starbucks in the Monopoly property hotel/apt bldg. 1st coffee in 3 years? Maybe. Maybe 2 years. Anyway, tall iced caramel macchiato, mmmmmmm.
Sorry about the delay Jaq, I needed to fix registrations first!
no worries! It was only a little while ago! Plus, really I should have been getting some work done :)

gimme! coffee macchiato on saturday: you were a treat!
do you like to put things in your coffee before brewing? such as:
cardamom
cacao
coconut
no but i think i might be interested if the tastes were subtle. also, coconut in anything pretty much works.
i put cardamom in mine today and it was glorious
