never a bad day for coffee
I’m really enjoying working in an office setting. It’s been almost four years since Jed and I left Clemson University, which means it’s been four years since I’ve gotten to be a nerd for a living; since I’ve had a desk with dual monitors and a chair adjusted just so; since I could feel slightly under the weather and not have to call in sick because I can’t run or talk for eight straight hours; since I could wear whatever the hell I want (not a uniform) on the weekdays; since I didn’t look at the clock every hour and wish time would pass faster; since I felt like I wasn’t under constant scrutiny to sell, to be fast, to always be “on”. Oh, and since I could drink coffee and work at the same time.
Life is good.

I like mine black and rich. Barb will drink her’s black but likes to use some Hazelnut creamer when we have it on hand. I don’t like flavored coffees in general but I found one in Los Lunas New Mexico called High Mountain PiƱon. I get it at a small coffee shop that’s a front for a religious book store and prefer it to the local Starbucks when I’m at Mom’s. I bought a pound when I was down there in November and have about half of it left. I’m very stingy with it and drink a cup of it a couple times a week.
