List: list list list list list

Things I appreciate/that make me happy today:

*Breakfast: Toasted bagel with cream cheese in the car. I need a bagel, and you know I need a bagel. A bagel with cream cheese. Yeah the cream cheese, everybody likes the cream and the cheese and the cheesey cream... And a cup of coffee, I definitely need a cup of coffee, so you get up and drive me...

*Being on time!

*Getting to practice with the gorgeous La Marzocco espresso machine (I'll try to take a picture for y'all at some point) and digital auto-grinder making lattes, cappucinos, tea lattes, etc., and making a pretty kick-ass first attempt at a soy cappucino on this machine.

*Making my own wonderful little espresso drink: two ristretto shots (pretty good this morning, a little on the fast side...) about 1/2 cup of cold soy juice/liquid (milk, whatever, it's not milk, it's bean juice. Like coffee!), and ice. Yum... When I buy coffee out, I often get two shots of espresso on ice, and then ask for soy. It's partially because that way it's cheaper for me, but also because I get to control the amount I'm putting in - typical lattes (esp. cold) are far too milky for my taste in general. I made this for R once when I was working for Bucks County in Philly (I miss you!!) and she said it had quite a kick - it's true! I like my kick...

*Frightened Rabbit:


*Driving near the ocean

*xkcd

*Foamy the Squirrel. I have recently decided that my grandmother basically is Foamy, but with less of a foul mouth most of the time. I showed her a few, and she loves him. More on this later, I promise.

*Having free time and errands to run within that free time.

Stuff that needs to be done:
*Random emailing

*Letter to France

*Playtime with music blog

*Phonology reading, other reading

*Target exchange

*DISHES

*Laundry/cleaning

*Run?

Wow. Wow wow.

Good LORD, am I caffeinated...

I feel like my veins are twitching. I've had three and a half shots of espresso since about 11 am, it is now about 2pm. Goodness! I am twitchy and distractible, and am feeling an intense need to clean and organize everything in sight.

Here we go...
