Hour 42 already. Hopefully this will be as productive as the last.

According to pop vocabulary, in this case, friends = fruits.

(Pre-coffee, my punning is much, much worse.)

You've had, like, half an hour to make coffee... are you roasting the beans or what?

(...sometimes it takes me a really long time to make coffee because an object at rest tends to stay at rest... (yes, I do like parenthetical clauses a lot, it's a sickness (and yes, that was a bad pun!(But I'm laughing anyway.))))

I awoke to find myself out of coffee. I'll be hopping out to get some between the next two hourly posts. Meanwhile, my comments veer even farther off-centre than usual . . .

And I overuse ellipses . . .

I ... don't understand. The words all make sense individually, but the phrase "out of coffee" has no meaning in my language.

(Except this one time, that led to hilarity, as we tried to brew several coffee-like substances into something acceptable.)

I should mention that I am still bemused at the concept of "coffee-like substances".

Well. Coffee related substances of note. We had instant espresso on hand because of some baking that had called for it. That was an immediate failure. We had Turkish coffee but no real briki and that was a much slower and more dismal failure. I think we may have attempted to combine the two at some point. I don't remember what happened next, but I know there was a third something in the house that could plausibly be treated as if it were coffee were one utterly desperate, and we did. Possibly carpet clippings. I get pretty dire when there is No Coffee At All to be had.
