coffee and i have a very complex relationship. well, maybe complex is the wrong word.

the shit owns me.

i have made so many unsuccessful attempts to quit.

day 1: “i don’t need coffee. i’m bigger than that- i just need mint tea and-“

day 1: “i hate everyoneeeeeeee…where is my friend, coffee? why would it leave me?”

i like it hot and strong and often. hmmm, freaky mimi ;)

after a year in nyc, i have decided that coffee is second only to oxygen in this city, so i need to just buck up and get with the program. i have successfully kicked my starbucks habit- i was nearing like platinum status- since i bought my gorgeous, reliable mr. coffee maker that has delay brew and custom temperature and strength.

NO NEW FRIENDS!

so in celebration of monday, here’s to you, hot stuff! that dog pic is absolutely me around 8:12am every day.
