What is in your cup?

They shall travel on to where the two shall be as one.
As it was in the beginning is now and til the end
Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again.
And there is Love,

Good morning, everyone! Thursday morning with a mug of East India Company's Assam tea. That's about all I can deal with right now... I woke up with another cold! Dammit. That's twice in the past few months!

I'm still thinking about my son's wedding, and trying to figure out what to play for a wedding song for them... There are so many good guitar songs with happy themes. Of course, there is always "Hit the Road, Jack," "Close The Door Lightly When You Go," and "Breaking Up is Hard to Do," but I don't want to disillusion them so early in the game.




Enceinte, perhaps? Does this mean there will soon be BabyCrash?



I doubled the amount of leaves and reduced the steeping time. I really like a lot of her ideas about making tea. They are much more broadminded than most of the 'instructional' pages that insist you need to use X seconds or Y amounts.



Inspector Rebus and you! I'd love to taste that some time.



Aww.... I think that's sweet. Anyone who would warm up a candle on a cold rainy day gets Karma in my book! Most folks just melt the damn things. Bless you, my child.

And now a refill of the Assam tea and back to the guitar. That sure is a nice combination!

Well, to each partner, anyway.

Yes for me.
I am perfectionist.
I have been waiting for my other half for 26 years

So, maybe something to do with lightning in bad weather?

Making a cup of coffee right now.

You are very, very close! I've sent you karma and the correct answer - I've got the same question going in the quiz forum right now.

Coke Zero #3. Let's hope it helps my back!

(Well, sitting in my nice Varier Variable Balans chair* will do that really. Driving a car for 8 hours on Monday/Tuesday is probably what caused the problem.)

*Mine's actually in red leather and nearly twenty years old. Expensive, but worth it.

Car journeys like that often set my back off too. I tried one of those chairs, but couldn't ever get comfortable. I find half an hour on the tradmill sort me out most times.

I'm having tea... cold tea, because I forgot it.

[Latinandgreek]

Earl Grey tea.

Water for the moment. The good news is everything feels normal today and swallowing doesn't hurt. So tea at the office won't hurt today.

Yes, I should have switched to water but tea has healing properties right?

What a sweet husband! I'm glad you are feeling better today. How was tennis?

Thanks! I'll go watch the other thread guesses.

I tried one of those years ago. I just couldn't find a way to sit that was comfortable. Co-workers loved the chairs.

Coffee in my cup - the last of my Kona. My friends just left for Hawaii to visit family, so yay!, my supply will be replenished.

Tennis was fun. I am enjoying my lessons and look forawrd to playing matches once I have a bit more control. I am playing matches now but getting my butt kicked. (winks)

[Stitchawl]

I didn't know what day it was when you walked into the room
I said hello unnoticed, you said goodbye too soon
Breezin' through the clientele, spinnin' yarns that were so lyrical
I really must confess right here that the attraction was purely physical

I took all those habits of yours, that in the beginning were hard to accept
Your fashion sense, your Beardsley prints I chalked up to experience
The big-bosomed lady with a Dutch accent who tried to change my point of view
Her ad lib lines were well rehearsed, but my heart cried out for you

You're in my heart, you're in my soul
You'll be my breath should I grow old
You are my lover, you're my best friend
You're in my soul

Good morning, everyone! Happy Friday! It's a mug of Keemun tea steeped for exactly 4 minutes and 11 seconds to accompany my bowl of muesli today. Nice combination. And listening to Rod Stewart singing this song as I type. I call it 'Multitasking.'

Pretty song. They wouldn't let us dance at the City Hall...

Hmmm.... could. Or if I really get motivated, write something new for them. That's always an option.

The elderly forget so many things, don't they?!?

I can appreciate that! I waited 17 years between wife#2 and wife#3.

Me neither. If I sit in one of those my knees hurt.

On to my next cup of Keemun!
