Coffee is a high-nitrogen soil amendment, but unbrewed it will be distinctly on the acid side.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Soil and compost aren't really part of my current living arrangements. I guess I could try the freezer thing but I wonder... does it really absorb smells or just supersede them?

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

In my extensive rauccous party experience of throwing coffee grounds on puke I'm going to say "actually absorbs odors" (along with actually absorbing the puke).

So this whole slew of kids from this super elite, expensive, fancy private school near where my family lives in Massachusetts showed up at my university in China today. Apparently they have a summer program. Who knew?! My favorite part, though, was when they asked me where I was from, and I told them, they all tried to hied their horrified and shocked expressions. My town has SUCH a bad reputation, I can never decide if I think it's sad or funny...

The key gift is awesome!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
There's a Russian bath in my neighborhood where they offer a coffee grounds & sour cream scrub. (For which they need much better marketing. I'm sure a more upscale spa could make being rubbed with used coffee grinds sound like a luxury add-on, but here it's just Igor coming up to you and saying "Is coffee waste mixed with sour cream. I do just one leg. You don't like, you wash off. You want?" Igor who has just about the most cliched Boris-and-Natasha accent you've ever heard, by the way. He's a sweetheart, but I do not want him rubbing "coffee waste" on my leg or any other bodypart.)

I am up at 7:30 (the kiddo got scared at 12:30 and slept with us...this will NOT be regular, but for last night, it was a "Awwww....)
He's still crashed, but I got breakfast stuff laid out, and his lunch all packed while I was making cappucino, so he can sleep while I sneak in a cup, a cig, and some internet updates! Go Team Summer Me!
