Coffee Talk

Maybe I am the only one that is this way. But does anyone else ONLY use a certain cup for their coffee? I know Mark does. And I use my Mickey Mouse mug. Always. Unless we have company and then sometimes I do not.

My mug is from my sister-in-law. She actually bought me a pink Minnie Mouse one and Mark the yellow Mickey Mouse one. I had them on a mug tree for a while. Then when my aunt came over and helped me fix up my house, we redid (or maybe just actually DID) the kitchen, that mug tree went away. I was using Mark's Mickey Mouse mug because it was the one that was out. The kitchen is blue and yellow.

Mark uses a VW mug. We got if for having to wait when we were getting our Volkswagen Jetta wagon TDI. BEAUTIFUL car.....too bad we leased it and then decided to trade it in. Anyway, the car salesman taking care of us gave us some free stuff because our wait had been so long. This blue transparent mug was one of them. We got that car in 2003. Mark has used that mug for his coffee every since.

Mark also uses the same mug at work for his coffee. It is his In and Out mug.



Any other coffee drinkers out there? Do you use the same mug every day for your coffee? I wonder why that is. It is not that we do not have any other mugs. For some reason I just always want to use that particular mug for my coffee.

Davis uses his Costa Rica mug for his coffee. Even though this picture is from last summer (2005). That was his first cup o' joe. Yes folks, my kid started drinking coffee at 18 months. They are Latin, what did you expect?

OH, yes. I have a special mug. 2, actually, that are just alike. Big, clear glass. My husband has a special mug, too - those "soup bowl" style coffee mugs.

I hate when there's company and I can't have my own mug. :(

Whew.....glad to know there are other crazy people out there. Then again, Judy, I already knew you were. (;

Now if we only had you here so you could meet with Amanda and myself....we could have a whole lot of crazy going on!

It's funny how these things happen. We went on holiday to a caravan on the Atlantic coast in France. Everything like plates and pans and cups were included, only the cups were these tiny microscopic, 10 ml coffee holders. In the first day we had to find something better but of course in a holday resort there are no proper shops.
Anyway we found this small micro-supermarket cum general store and there they had six cups all with a seperate fruit design. There were only four of us so I insisted we selected the top four and leave the other two.
These are really thin porceline like tall thin elegant mugs (made in Thailand). Within 24 hours I realised I had never had such a great cup to drink coffee out of. We returned to the store but in vain, the remaining cups were gone, lost forever, I still think if only. Now despite having a cupboard of cups it's never as good as when it's from one of these.

I'll Do It Better In My Next Thirty years

Today is doomsday. At 9:05 a.m on this very day thirty years ago my mother gave birth to me. I have done the "Holy crap, where did the years go?" I have done the "When did *I* get so freaking old?" I have cried and been mad and upset. I have looked at my life and realized it was NOT what I thought it would be at thirty. In both good and bad ways. I have run the gamut, so to speak and frankly now I am worn completely out. I am done. I went through getting old sucks . I spent time reminiscing about Swatch watches from back in the day. I have shed tears over my babies not being babies anymore . I tired to stop thirty from coming and realized that it was inevitable. I even got my friends to realize that we are indeed getting old. So today, as I move on in life and have to start checking a new box on forms, I still stand by my very first post on getting older. I think Tim McGraw has it right. My Next Thirty Years I think I'll take a moment, celebrate my age The en...

It Is Official...

I am now officially a participant in the NaBloPoMo . What is this you ask? It is an alternative to National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as, NaNoWriMo . The goal of NaNoWriMo is to write a 50,000 word novel during the month of November. Since I lack focus, which some like to call adult ADD, there is no way I could do that. So, enter NaBloPoMo. Besides sounding funnier, it is a much more doable thing for me. The goal of this? Post an entry to my blog every day for the entire month of November. You heard it folks. You will be blessed with some random something from me EVERY DAY for the ENTIRE month of November. I am even on the Official List. I am, really. You can go look. Now you may be asking yourself how you got so lucky. And I can not give you the answer to that. All I can say is that you can look forward to me rambling about basically nothing for the whole month. So sit back and enjoy the ride. Now, if I could only figure out how the hell to put up my button and get it to hy...
