This morning I saw two deer and a rainbow. One end of the rainbow was right next to me and I thought about the pot of gold and how, if it really existed, it had to be at the other end because all I saw was grass and bushes.
Of course.
I am so glad I’m not eating Taco Bell right now.
I had the most amazing cup of coffee today. It was served in a really satisfying mug. The mug was white ceramic, and rounded in a soft U shape. It was fat and round, almost like a bowl with a handle, but not ridiculous.
The coffee was dark brown, almost black; reminded me of my eyes. The creamer was served in a cold, white ceramic container. It looked like something you’d serve sake from. It was also satisfying. I loved picking it up and pouring the cream into my coffee.
I put one packet and a half of fake sugar into the coffee and stirred it. At this point, I had no idea how amazing this coffee would be. I was simply going through the motions one goes through when one prepares one’s coffee while waiting to order their breakfast. At this point in my day, I did not know that eight hours later in my day I would still be daydreaming over this very cup of coffee I was about to imbibe.
I lifted the cup to my lips and drank the coffee. It was incredible. Seriously. Perfection.
I immediately remarked on the amazingness of the coffee. I drank some more. I remarked some more. I kept drinking and remarking. Pretty soon, the coffee was finished.
In a little while the waitress came by with a pot on her ‘refill round’. I told her how I felt about the coffee and asked her what kind of coffee it was. She said it was some Bolivian organic something something. The way she said it was like it was unimportant and not special at all. I really wanted someone with which to match my excitement about the coffee. Someone who also wanted to make a t-shirt proclaiming their love for this coffee I was enjoying. But there was, apparently, no one.
I finished a second cup, and if I hadn’t had eaten breakfast I would’ve had a third.
All day I’ve been thinking about the coffee and how I want to jump in the car and drive back there just to get a cup.
Thinking about that coffee was the only reason I wrote this. I needed to tell you guys how great this coffee was. It was soooo good.
You guys, the coffee was SO good.
