What is in your cup? - Page 1853

Stitchawl · 02-22-2014, 08:14 PM

The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
We're on the eve
of destruction.

Good morning, everyone! Wow! The "Last Day!" Well, I was planning to do my laundry today, but that's out. Who wants to do laundry on their last day? I'll drink tea instead... and make it my best of the best 'unbranded Keemun tea!' Sure glad I as able to have this last until the very end of time. And I really do trust that when the Vikings say today is the end, that it will all end. I mean, Thor promised to get rid of the Ice Giants, didn't he? And you don't see any more Ice Giants, do you? I rest my case!

(What does one wear for 'The Last Day?' I guess clean underwear is a must...)

Now I want to make some cornbread.

Fresh cup of coffee after my bottle of water.

So drink up and be merry, for today is the end of the world! Agian!

Oh good. I was wondering what to do today.

Rooibos in my cup.

So it appears my record for surviving the END OF THE WORLD is still perfect. I am getting to be an old hat with at this now. I should get a shirt that says "I survived the the end of the world and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"

heh - be cool to have a list on the back of all the end of the world dates you survived so far.

ProfCrash · 02-23-2014, 08:03 AM

Man, I went to bed late because the world was going to end and now I am tired.

CRussel · 02-23-2014, 10:37 AM

I was so counting on not having to produce this chapter for my editor, since the EoW was here. I was sure the snow we've been having was a sure indicator.

Sigh. Now I am sooooo in trouble.

Fresh squeezed orange juice and Major Dickason's coffee.

Stitchawl · 02-23-2014, 11:29 AM

I'm having a second glass of rum tonight to celebrate... just in case the New World is beginning.

You guys are the ones responsible for my buying some Pu Erh. I have a (likely cheap) sample from one store and a small box of a supposedly better quality one. Both are black tea but if I like it, I'll consider green tea next time.
I think I'll try it tomorrow. Any advice?

Meanwhile I'm drinking some tea of dreams (oolong with flowers and exotic fruits) which is a delight.

Fresh Gevalia house blend coffee in my cup. It's a beautiful day and a perfect time to go out to clean the garage and put away all the winter stuff.

cromag · 02-23-2014, 05:55 PM

Third tea, while I rest my sore backside.

Temps got into the high 40s today and the snow continues to melt. But there's snow in the forecast for tomorrow night. It's not supposed to amount to much -- just the gods of winter refusing to leave gracefully.

Stitchawl · 02-24-2014, 08:20 PM

Well, when the sun rose this morning
I was feeling mighty bad
My baby said; "good morning"
Hell, it made me mad
Because I was evil, evil hearted me
I'm down right evil, evil as a man can be

Well, she even cooked my breakfast
And she brought it to my bed
I took a sip of coffee, and throwed cup at her head
Because I was evil, evil hearted me
Yeah, I'm down right evil, evil as a man can be

Josh White... one of the all time Blues greats! In my head as I woke up today. I love the Blues! I'm thinking of changing my name to be like a Bluesman... I need to pick an infirmity, a fruit, and a President's name, and put them all together... Like Blind Lemon Jefferson... I'll work on that today. My unbranded Keemun tea will be my inspiration although those old Bluesmen only drank Sterno (gel heating gas) or cheap wine... Can I be a real Bluesman if I don't like 'Pruno?'

Time to get myself in gear... Lots to do this morning, then some good music this afternoon. First a quick 10k walk/jog... I need to get my speed up. Increase my endurance. I think it was much easier at 27 than at 67...

Milk in my cup. Time for breakfast!

ProfCrash · 02-25-2014, 08:33 AM

Himilayian Black. Good stuff. Matches nicely with the Kind Dark Chocolate, Sea Salt and Nut bar I am munching on.
