As if it hasn’t been said enough “Time flies while you’re having fun”, or something like that. And time has flown. I believe it’s a function of aging, that time flies. I read somewhere that the perception of time passing faster as we age is due to the lack of originality in our lives. And …
It’s like Central Station here. I came for a coffee and some quiet but so far only the java has been found. My car is in for repair, or rather my wife’s car, and to kill some time I walked to our local plaza to spend the hour or so the repair should take. I …
The day began as many others. I awoke, dressed, made my coffee, and tried a yogurt for breakfast instead of my usual cereal or toast. Nothing unusual there. In fact little that has happened since then has been what you might call ‘unusual’, unless you lump the point that I did not take my morning walk, …
I love this time of day, the cool mornings where all is fresh and the ground is oft covered with dew. I venture forth for my walk and while the last week I have been taking a shorter route I still drop in for my morning joe. I hesitated this morning however. It’s not that …
Today is the first day back to whatever we call ‘normal’, at least our normal. Our Easter guests have returned home and the house is finally quiet after 4 days. It is also the first day my wife has returned to work, after an absence of about 5 months. And, as a result, it is …
The mall is not really where I want to be. We left the kidlets, our daughter and family, and began the drive home when my wife determined she needed something she could only get at the mall. My future flashed before me, I knew where my day was headed, certainly my morning. I shouldn’t begrudge …
I’m getting anxious again, it’s not overwhelming but uncomfortable nonetheless. It’s manageable. At worst it’s quite a disconcerting feeling, and for those that have real anxiety attacks I can imagine it must be a horrible experience. Mine is more a result, or contributed by, the big “C”. That would be Coffee with too much Caffeine. I’ve …
Well isn’t this interesting. Stopped at Starbucks again this morning for my first fix of ‘Joe’ and was met with a lengthy line. That’s not the interesting part (but if you think it is then that’s cool). When I got to the head of the line I noticed they had another trainee working (also not …
Well I’m at it again, I stopped again during my morning walk for a cup of Starbucks coffee, I’m ‘joe’ing again. Whether this will become a regular stop of mine, part of my routine, is yet to be seen. I can say it’s a nice break but at $3 bucks a pop for a grande …
Now here’s some blatant advertising, a quick shot of a double shot. Americano that is. I am part way through my morning walk and thought today perhaps a little coffee break was in order. Now this is where I become more than a little perturbed. Prior to writing this particular paragraph I had another paragraph, …
