Waking up is never easy. Well that's a lie - it can be easy, nice and utterly peaceful, it just chooses not to. Instead you are woken by the shrill sound of your alarm or even the crude and unsettling remarks from the outside world demanding you get your ass out of bed and join the havoc. But if you are like me and yes, lots of you are, all you want to do is rewind the clock and get just a few more minutes before starting what appears to be a rude and unwanted day.
It's true, you can't always tell which way the day will go but sometimes, just as you open your eyes to be blasted by the horrid sunlight you get the unshakable feeling that you know it's not going to be a good. Then again, on my few and far between waking occasions, I wake to birds chirping and the sunlight envelops me in a warm and comforting glow- solidifying my morning as one where I can enjoy my few minutes of peace and quiet before stepping out into the world. They don't come often but I sure do cherish every single minute I can, I hope you do too,
On the bad days (so basically every day at this point) I seek a moments refuge in my delicious cup of coffee. It's warm, inviting and creamy allure engulfs me, saving me from the noise and distractions of the outside. The time I take to drink my caffeinated beverage is indeed prolonged for as long as possible, aiding me in trying to achieve my inner zen before I begin the process of getting ready to leave the apartment for yet another day of wasted energy. Okay, yes, the energy isn't always wasted. I do get things done and accomplish the tasks I needed to but some days, the energy I use I don't get back and that is when I conclude the day a failure in useful exertion. Yes, you guessed it, those are the day where my morning coffee becomes a recurring action - a lunch coffee, an afternoon coffee and sometimes an after supper coffee.
I have extreme wants and needs of the coffee variety and I'm not ashamed to proclaim my eternal love and devotion to this wondrous drink. It rules my life and there is absolutely nothing that I want to do about it.
Sincerely,
The Girl Craving Her Cuppa Joe
