I really am becoming addicted to that first cup of coffee in the morning. I'm not sure who I blame more -- [livejournal.com profile] agamisu, or that restaurant owner in Florence who refused to let me have tea, and instead served me my first cup of exquisitely-made cappuccino. Or possibly some recent ancestor, who also gave me my taste for fermented goat milk and other reportedly disgusting things. Currently drinking fresh-ground Jamaican Blue Mountain, and feeling decidedly decadent.

The reason for the coffee is that I'm in the middle of another rush line-edit (their failure to plan/make deadline is apparently making my livelihood). The author is award-winning and multiply published. The plot is not impressing me, mainly because part of my brain is going "but that's silly" as I work my way through it. But one reader's silly is another reader's fascinating, so....

Decaffinated tea, actually. I've been decaffinated for about two years now, and I can't remember why I started drinking coffee in the first place. Unless it was to keep my husband company ... I never drank coffee before I moved in with him.

It's actually really handy in emergencies, because all I have to do is drink two cups of regular coffee and I'm revved like an express train. Ask me about Denver some time. 8-D
