How to tell that it's too early...

Stumble downstairs, put on water to boil for french press coffee to take in thermos, crank up espresso maker for now. Put coffee in french press. Espresso steaming. Water boiling. Espresso done. Water done. Pour espresso into the french press, hot water into espresso cup. Go sit and pick up book. Wait for cat to settle in lap. Take first sip of badly needed espresso, only to realize something is not quite right...



a completely unrelated thought: How wonder-full would it be to live in a world without clocks and calendars and especially without alarms, where clothing would be optional determined only by climate and even then limited to very well worn soft fleece-y warm sweatpants, sweatshirts, hoodies and fuzzy socks? Sweats: the perfect clothing. Simple, comfortable, functional, cozy, and yes, sexy in a shabby, unpretentious and understated way...

I need coffee. Have a great day! It's Friday, after all...
