Coffee nerves
Jun. 7th, 2004 10:28 amLeft to my own devices, I make horrible, horrible coffee.
At work, not 25 feet from my desk, is an espresso maker that only requires one to insert a cartridge. It is good espresso.
I may never have been so highly caffeinated in my life. Except for that one time in college, where too much Diet Coke actually caused short-circuiting of the brain.
(Goes off to plot possible theft of younger sister's newly acquired cappucino/espresso maker on return to US - fact that younger sister unbent regarding coffee to extent that now OWNS such machine may actually be sign of the apocalypse.)

Its not so much that I actually want 2 wedding dresses as I want to hold on to the idea that I could possibly have 2 wedding dresses...of course I havent even found one I like, of course I havent even looked.
I think I should move to Katmandu.
