Happiness pulses with every cup of coffee I drink!.

I've not been writing much in my LJ because I've been playing around on Facebook. Facebook is fun for all ages! How did I waste my time before I discovered Facebook? Reading? Writing books? Hmmm. I still haven't figured out the point of Twitter.

My ballet performance was uneventful. I downed two Xanax to help with the stage fright, put on that stupid tutu and danced away. I thought I would blank out and forget the steps, as I did during every rehearsal, but my fellow dancers helpfully guided me through the dance, "Go left, go right, over here! Pssst!"

We now have three coffee pots since the beloved Nespresso machine went kaput. We have a so-called "normal" coffee pot, a new Nespresso machine (capsules -- you know, Nespresso, what else?) and a monster espresso machine. All three are shiny red, like Cadillacs. It's simply coffee heaven! Don't ask me why we have three coffee pots. It's like asking somebody, why do you breathe?

Speaking of COFFEE, I spilled an entire cup of the stuff (demitasse, luckily)on my laptop keyboard. Stupid, stupid, stupid! I wiped it off the best I could, turned it upside down and let it dry. Incredibly, it still works, except the right arrow key, but I think that's because there's a canary seed lodged somewhere beneath it. I need to get one of those spray cans and blast all the seeds out of my keyboard. Hint: keep your canary away from your computer!

Until next time,

All the best!

Schlendrian You wicked child, you disobedient girl,
oh! when will I get my way;
give up coffee!

Lieschen Father, don't be so severe!
If I can't drink
my bowl of coffee three times daily,
then in my torment I will shrivel up
like a piece of roast goat.

J.S. Bach, "Coffee Cantata" BMV211

Keep your canary away from your keyboard.

That's pretty good advice. I think it's in the Bible somewhere.

The image of shiny red coffee makers like Cadillacs is incredibly appealing. You really know how to paint a picture with words, which is quite a skill to have. I recommend the aircans that blast things away...silly canarie.

Glad the ballet went well.
