I made some coffee at home this morning and thought I was being effecient when I turned on the electric kettle when I jumped into the shower. Fast forward to end of the shower... the water was no longer boiling hot... but the kettle was still in "COOL DOWN" mode so it wouldn't reheat yet. So I made coffee that wasn't quite hot enough. AND IT STILL RULED SO HARD. I'm drinking this coffee that Alex brought me from England (no, it's not tea).

I got one of these for my birthday a while back: http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CPK-17-PerfecTemp-1-7-Liter-Stainless/dp/B003KYSLNQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1340299013&sr=8-3&keywords=electric+kettle
Heats the water to specified temp (several settings for different teas and french press, plus boil), then keeps it there. It's perfect for heating water and showering at the same time. -
This morning I noticed that people seemed extra rascally. The sun solstice seems to bring the ego to its own peak, resulting in a diffuse rascallyness/edginess/orneriness of the populace.
Has anyone else noticed this? -
Haven't interacted with any people yet today.

haha, secret pyromaniac?

today
2 cups coffee (8 oz Stumptown, 8 oz office cafe)
2 cups green tea
feel the burn*
*Sally's motto -
One beautifully hand-crafted 12 oz. Americano from Fresh Pot to gird my loins for the commute.
Upon arrival at the spice mines: one decent shot from the office coffee stand to stiffen the dregs.
A cup of sludge from the break room pot to rouse a sleepy post-lunch brain.
Just now: Another cup o' sludge with a bit of sugar to slay the afternoon nap dragon.
Might try a cup of iced as an aperitif if Tara has any left in the fridge when I get home.
Finally, a digestif from the french press to keep the evening mind sharp. -
you late-day coffee drinkers! I am in awe. How do you sleep?
If I have coffee post noon I am a WRECK
I wish I could have it -
Building a fire is all about oxygen and architecture, and thinking several steps ahead to where the wood is going to settle once the smaller pieces underneath crumble.
It's my best pagan engineering skill!
I got soot on my face like a little old urchin.
Drank no coffee today, I am almost totally off of it because it gives me the heebie jeebies.
:( -
Just drank some coffee at 9pm.
I feel great and I promise I could fall asleep in the next hour. -
FaceTweet really showed his true Merrill spirit with his post. Could have been written by Mike.
-
Honestly, tea is finally not working at all for me. I'm probably going to relapse. There are a lot of side effects I don't like with coffee, but I hate feeling like I never get "above the clouds" in my brain every day.
-
It is so cool our brains have receptors for stuffs we seek.
-
I do not have a health plan and no one ever has any spare salts. :(
-
I had a latte today. Four hours later I feel dizzy even after a snack. This stuff is poison!
-
Big ups to my Salt Fairy who has given me an opportunity to experience a different life for a few days. I'll report back after I start the experiment.

ZUCKERBURG DONT TURN INTO A FLESH EATING ZOMBIE WITH DEM SALTS, MANG
-
SO STOKED whenever an avowed "oh I switched to tea it's so much better blah blah blah" person publicly admits it's not actually working!!!!!!!
I've seen it happen so many times and each time I am filled with self-righteous glee. Oh yeah, you think it's not working, really? Huh, maybe that's because TEA IS DUMB.
GET BACK IN THE CLUB ZUCKERBURG
YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE -
This morning I was nodding off on the bus and nearly falling in to seats next to me
COF me -
I would love that if we could gang up so early!!
I have to catch the 8 at NW 5th and Davis at 8:10am : - ) -
Barista might be kind of hard for me to hoof it to. What about Spella on 5th and Alder, or Public Domain on Alder & Broadway?
-
Alex, what do you get at Nuvrei? It is the best bakery!! I love marzipan croissant and chewie salty chocolate cookie with walnut.
-
I get coffee at Nuvrei because they have Coava there!
In terms of food - sometimes bagels, sometimes bagels with salmon, and sometimes that insane salmon/smoked cheddar pretzel.
I don't know what the coffee is like at Bowery, but that might be a cool place to meet? http://bowerybagels.com/ -
The Bowery looks awesome!!!
-
FEEL THE DEW!
In yr pits
Cuz yr sweatn
Cuz caffein make u feel good -
Yeah they are apples and oranges. I decree that YT is ignorant of tea.
The first cup moistens my lips and throat;
The second cup breaks my loneliness;
The third cup searches my barren entrail but to find therein some thousand volumes of odd ideographs;
The fourth cup raises a slight perspiration-all the wrongs of life pass out through my pores; At the fifth cup I am purified;
The sixth cup calls me to the realms of the immortals.
The seventh cup-ah, but I could take no more! I only feel the breath of the cool wind that raises in my sleeves.
Where is Elysium? Let me ride on this sweet breeze and waft away thither.
