Special interest groups claim that children smoke because they see it onscreen. I don’t know about that, but I know that as a coffee drinker, I have a hard time seeing people drink coffee without wanting a big cup for myself. I can’t even try to watch a Season 1 episode of Ugly Betty without wanting a coffee and a bagel (to which I now watch prepared-everything bagel/cream cheese and latte).

I’ve now found that it’s impossible for me to read Charlaine Harris without craving coffee by the gallon. Maybe it’s the “Southerness” of it all, but Sookie, and now Harper, are forever making and/or drinking coffee, which in turn, means that I am forever making and drinking it. I’m starting to think that even I, with my strong addiction and tolerance of caffeine, may just be affected by this increased uptake and that’s why I’m no longer able to go to sleep until 2-3am. Hmmmm.

  1. Mom makes a pot every day, two if Aunt Linda comes over. I don’t drink it very much anymore. Is there a coffee emoticon thingy like cake and bubbly?

    • I make at least the equivalent of one each day, usually first thing in the morning and then again at primetime.

      I should look for a coffee emoticon!

  2. Im a huge coffee drinker myself although I’ve learned how to layoff of it after 10pm on work days. I think coffee was one of the greatest discoveries ever. Black with just one Splenda. PERFECTO!!!! I dont know why my wife loves it with all kinds of milk and sugar. It ruins the flavor completely!!! :nod:

    • Ooh, you come from a land of good beans, too! Lucky! I usually add a half of a packet of Equal and a touch of cream, but I’ll drink it black and be just as happy. I guess it’s more ritual than preference to add all the extras.
