How fun is THAT?!?

Super Zombie Funtime!

I can't get the new espresso machine to work. Woe. I have filled the water reservoir, made sure it is firmly in place, turned it on and pushed the appropriate button and yet no water goes through. It is much louder and more obnoxious than my previous machine, and has the added advantage of NOT WORKING.

Is there any evidence that water is getting hot... somewhere?

I made cocoa about a half hour ago, but I think that's too much of a "somewhere" for Hec.

signed, cheeky and not helpful

I lost my $150 pair of sunglasses. I had them for over six years. So I searched everywhere TWICE. My purse, diaper bag, suitcases, baskets, in the van, in the truck, called my in-laws and family to see if I left them there last weekend. Nothing.

Today, I broke down and bought a cheap pair at Target. Guess what I found when I got back home?

Fuck.

And Hec has reminded me of our horrid lack of any coffee making apparatus in the house--no French press, no Mr. Coffee, no pod machine, nada.

Return the cheap sunglasses to Target and buy a coffee machine.

Leave them in the car, that way you always have a pair. Plus, you can take the cheap ones to picnics and stuff.

The machine gets hot. The water is not entering into pipes of the machine from its reservoir. I checked the valve on the water container and it works fine. It's firmly in place, but the pump just grunts and grunts, full of sound and fury but signifying NO COFFEE.

Hivemind question. is there way to plot several points on a map on Google maps. I need to go to several places, and am trying to figure out the best route.
