My Espresso Machine

My espresso machine is almost 1 year old now. Happy Birthday Evo Kanevo (that's its name)! KT gave it to me as my 22nd birthday present, but after we moved into our apartment in Michigan. Okay, so maybe its like 11 months old, whatever. The point is I haven't been drinking coffee for a while. Last semester, I didn't have very early classes so I didn't need coffee. On other days, I worked too early to take the time to make espresso and stuck to quicker and easier and longer lasting tea in the morning. Then during the early parts of the summer I was mostly at home with the very occassional Starbucks (some say they serve weaker coffees!). Anyway, the point is I found myself making myself a latte earlier this morning with Pete's Coffee beans (from Peter!) and have been incredibly jittery/on a verge of a headache.

I need more caffeine tolerance! Maisterbate needs more alchohol tolerance.

Happy 4th of July!

OMG! KT just called and said he'll be home in an hour and I still have to:
1) Shower
2) Plan what to bring to a 4th of July BBQ
3) Buy what I'm going to bring to the BBQ
4) Make what I'm going to bring to the BBQ

there's no time! why is it already 1:22pm?
