The Confessional: I love coffee
I should actually be posting “The Bloscars Part 3″, but I do not have all my links and accolades together, so… tomorrow… tomorrow… Unless I don’t get my act together tonight. Which is entirely possible, but let’s not gossip about my shortcomings. M’kay? It’s not nice to gossip.
*****
I pretty much love coffee. I started drinking it to fit in several years ago. I live near Seattle. Not drinking coffee definitely put me in a socially awkward position. I am not a huge fan of tea, and ordering hot chocolate felt like ordering a Sprite at a night club. My dad wisely advised against my effort when he said,
Jenny. Don’t TRY to like coffee. You have enough addictions as it is.
He is a wise man. I should have listed to him. I should have also listened to him when he pretty much grounded me from “going around with” my first boyfriend too… I so could have done without that. Jen, shutup.
I have actually shared my love and adoration for coffee before — in this post. However, I am on the eve of perhaps having to go without this “heaven on my lips” for two weeks starting tomorrow. Why? Probably because I am certifiably crazy. Why the H E doublehockeysticks do I think starting a “cleanse” might be a good thing to do in DECEMBER. Granted, in all reality, the 2 weeks will probably last all of 1.5 days – at which point you will find me — in my dark pantry tearing into the frozen bag of chocolate chips I duct taped shut — to soothe my tattered nerve (yes, I have but ONE) after something a child said or did or said and did.
Alas, a haiku, for all the talented I am at haiku-ing. *shaking head*
Love, love, love, love, love.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
Love, love, love coffee.
Why am I not published? Seriously.
Again, Vogue? Why am I not published? Seriously. I actually feel a little bit sorry for the whole world. My gosh, they are missing out on some serious sickness talent.

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

You are the best kept secret!!! {{drinking a big cup of joe}}
I am officially shutting up. My thoughts on your first boyfriend have been documented enough. I will say that my first borfriend was pretty much a giant ass-wipe as well, so I can’t go around pitching stones, ya know?
Good luck on your cleanse. I’ll be thinking of you every morning while I drink my first (and second) cup of coffee.
LOL That is ONE serious love you got there, girl!! Alas, I don’t have a favorite warm cup of somethin’ to make my insides all toasty every morning. Wish I liked the stuff cuz I’m cold 24/7, but just can’t do it. =(
GOOD LUCK! You have a will of iron (go triathlete!) so I’m sure you’ll last all two weeks. You are a bit of a nut to do it at this time of year but that’s my girl. Taking on the world.
Oh my, good luck! I LOVE coffee as well, but don’t ever want to give it up. You will do great!! Order kid’s hot chocolate at Starbucks – it’s only $1 and it’s the perfect sweet treat
mmmm… crack in a cup. good luck with your cleanse, crazeeee lady.
Why a cleanse? Is coffee no longer good enough for you? What did coffee ever do to you! Must you punish coffee so!?
I swear…it’s like I don’t know you anymore…
I have to admit, I’m one of the tea and hot chocolate orderers. I wouldn’t be able to survive without chocolate, though, so I give you a lot of credit for your coffee break!
I’m trying to understand why you would ever do such a thing. Go have a double espresso to celebrate your victory girl.
We must be in sync with each other. I did a coffee post today also!
Hit send too soon…
Good luck with your cleanse. You must have all my will-power as I have none.
No COFFEE for two weeks? Oh you think? Jenny! You know that will make you crabby(er)! Here’s a support site for you:http://www.netjaunt.com/thinkinghurts/caffeine.txt
I want to like coffee, I really do, but I just don’t. I’m just a no-good tea and hot chocolate girl. Sigh.
I’m a coffee lover too…convert from tea when I moved to WA. I also have done a cleanse or two. First one I was so committed to…I mean, I have will power right? I am not an addict? I can make three weeks (mine was 3)…and I did! The next year when hubby and I did a cleanse again…I cheated….had my coffee and decided that corn chips were a whole grain so I got my salt fix that way.
All that to say….you can do it…if you wanna.
Heh. One and a half days? I MIGHT last an hour!!! If that. Good luck!
