"I have measured out my life with coffee spoons."
-T.S. Elliot

For most of my life, I measured it with tea spoons, actually.

Only recently have I switched to coffee spoons.

But I do enjoy my caffeine events, whatever form they take.

It's weird how quickly I became accustomed to my coffee breaks.

Especially because I resisted them for so long.

I drink my coffee with reverence, 

enjoying a quiet moment when I come home from work

before I do anything else.

They feel oddly comforting, those moments, 

and I feel quite annoyed if they are skipped or interrupted.

Let me have peace with my coffee...and cream and sugar.
