Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Happy? Finally getting to eat something, since lunch fell off the agenda today.
OK, hivemind. I need a coffee-maker. Just for me. DF can't stand the stuff, and I hate using the 12 cup machine I have now when I'm the only one drinking it. Suggestions?
How much do you normally consume?
Happy? I'm going home!
There are tiny coffee makers. I have one. It makes max 4 cups, which is 2 mugs worth.
I bought it at one of those gigaplex stores like Linens & Things, 2-3 years ago. It takes #2 filters.

Have you considered a french press? I have one for my intermittent coffee. Bitches speak well of coffee pod systems, but I think that means you can only brew coffee someone else has podded.
was able to reschedule a dr. appt. which is happy making.
You are very easy to please.

Deb is deeply and passionately in love with her one-cup making machine. You should check with her.
Hee. The fine print on the iPod Shuffle (which I waaant):
Music capacity is based on 4 minutes per song and 128Kbps AAC encoding.
Do not eat iPod shuffle.
Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See www.apple.com/batteries for more information.
Some computers require either the optional iPod shuffle Dock or a USB cable extender (sold separately).
I am very easy to please. it's true.
How much do you normally consume?
Once I get into the office, it's 2 or 3 cups in the morning. I like to drink it in the evening as well, but normally don't because of the hassle.

Could be a possibility.
ita, a french press is on the consideration list, but isn't it more of a hassle because you actively have to participate in the making of the java?
I know Deb loves her One:One, but there are a few different makes out there. Mayhap I shall search for reviews.
What I really want is the commercial espresso machine we have in the restaurant. Mmmm, so good, but damn expensive.
Happy New Year!
I have a new computer! It's not from 1995! It's...NEW. And it has...a DVD-ROM...and a CD burner.
And I have at-home DSL, and a new space heater sitting at my feet like a puppy.
I'm, like, totally ready for world domination!
And I just colored my hair! And passed my portfolio review. And I have a new (to me) cellphone, thanks to my sister.
Ice storm predictions nonwithstanding, I'm pretty fucking pleased.
My take on the French press is that you have to have a Disposall in your sink -- to eat up the grinds. With a filter, you just take the whole shebang and throw it out; when the grinds are loose (or packed) into a glass, and you don't want to throw out the glass, that's some extra cleaning to deal with.
Moreso, when you just have a regular sink.
You could always get an old-fashioned percolator. Of course, I am told that makes coffee the equivalent of tar. I wouldn't know, since my coffee tastes are remarkably plebeian (and I smother my coffee with cream and sugar anyway).
