I am listening to Caetano Veloso on Launchcast AIFG. That is all.
Ooh! Which song?
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.
'Serenity'

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Me too. My dad's a big fan too, which is cool.

Trust my rage
I am happiest when I can got to bed at 10pm and wake up at 6am. I sometimes complain about having to walk the dogs, but really, they are my excuse to get up when DH wants me to spend hours in bed in the morning (while he's still sleeping).

Up with the sun
What I don't understand about all you night owls is how you manage to make coffee when you're barely functional. I'm neither a true night owl nor a true morning person by nature, and the coffee-maker always feels like a challenge to me in the morning. You have to find a filter and put water in the machine and measure the grounds and wait for the coffee and then it's hot and I have to drink hot things very slowly or else it feels like my throat is closing, and in general the process is an investment of time that I would just as soon spend sleeping or reading.
So I skip the coffee, unless someone else will make it or I'm feeling especially energetic.

Kate, Have you or your dad seen the Almodovar film Talk to Her?
Veloso sings in it and it is so beautiful it just breaks your heart.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

NYC has coffee carts. They appear like magic in the morning mist and dispense blue and white greek-themed cups of hot java-y goodness for a couple of quarters.
By the time you're out for lunch they've disappeared.
Spooky.

I don't. That is why God invented Coffee Bean. I don't even have to speak. I just nod my head when they write my order and then hand them money.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just took a walk to one of the other buildings on the campus to buy soda. And stopped for a chat with someone I hadn't talked to in a while. And walked on the grass.
And now there's ginger ale at my desk!
Not only do I wonder why (the wonder falls) I haven't done this more often, I wonder if I'll even remember tomorrow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can be either a night person or a morning person, but not both. I mean, if I've gotten enough sleep the night before, I wake up alert and chipper, no matter when. But having to get up two hours earlier than the norm (whatever the current norm is) leads to groggy Jesse all day. And coffee doesn't help at all if what I need is more sleep. So in my current student life, setting my alarm for 8 is an issue, because I'm used to staying up past 12, but when I worked, I woke up at 7 every day with no problem, but I also started getting ready for bed at 10.
