buried in winter? Coffee!!!

Posting has been hard. and you know you're not in the right place to write when you blog about blogging. It's just that the "rut" of daily life began to run away from daily thoughts, writing, regular stuff like that...

and so here i am.

this morning, it's all about the coffee. it is a rainy, cloudy day. I just took the boys to school and got home. it has been winter, so that's cold, youknow? and i never wear enough clothing for that. Usually i wear a knit hat and a hoodie over a teeshirt. I have discovered that, like my youngest son, i hate wearing clothes. Makes me wonder if heaven is nudist. i think it's not, b/c angels always have stuff on... but at least i'll have just a tee shirt and jeans or shorts on... you know?

anyway today is all abotu the coffee. Judy's been on the warpath about my coffee drinking. I'm giving up at least half of my public coffee times to offset some home expenses, but we brew the finest, here and i drink a lot of it. like 10 cups a day, in toto...

10 cups isn't actually ten cups of coffee, but rather around 10 8 ounce servings. 80 ounces a day doesn't seem like a lot when you sit around talking to people a lot. or writing or skateboarding, and it's cold outside and dark and you didn't sleep well...
some sleep problems are simply logistical.

but today it isn't about beds or noise or bruised consciences keeping me up. it's about the coffee.

aaaaah.
the warmth.
the bitter.
the brown.
aaaaaah.
a little cream to take the edge off and she's smoothe as chocolate.
coffee.
perfect breakfast and perker-upper...

is coffee a drug?
is it just food?

i don't know, but sitting here this morning, the day after Thursday night bible study, I'm happy to have a nice cup here. Judy's here, too. She's working and i'm blogging. Got Chris Tomlin and stuff playing on Pandora.com... and some coffee...

I know. You were sure it was all about jesus, and it is. just this morning, the coffee is all about jesus, because it's about the coffee.
