Out From Under The Influence

Out from under the influence of Benedryl and awake this morning.

My "visit" to the Front Porch will be of the lightning strike persuasion. I plan to flash to Trusty for his morning wake-up and flash back into the house before the storm door finishes its closing swing. Oh, who am I kidding. Maybe in my youth that could have almost happened. The reason I dream about it happening now is the -9° going on out there at the moment. Yes, once again that is a minus sign in front of that 9, not a dust mote. Thank goodness for calm winds. A wind chill this morning would be a compelling reason to sit down and try to work out a budget where a day off is survivable. 82% humidity and fair skies finish the weather breakfast served up by Mama Nature this morning. And lets not forget the promise of a brisk high temperature of 15° for lunch. 

Whoa! Back Porch just let go with a bang!

Yeech, my coffee is cold... 

now, I ask you, why does cold coffee bring the yeech out in me when I'm gonna take the coffee I don't drink right away to work this morning and pour it over ice to finish it. It's the "not as anticipated" factor, right? I anticipated hot and got cold, therefore the yeech?  Hmmm... Humans. We are funny critters.

Doncha hate a heavy heart. It... hurts to have a heavy heart. Everything sounds so false and trite.

I'll be back shortly, with the standard WIP and more trite attempts at wit.

COLD!

Funny. I never noticed how funny the word cold looked until boldly capitalized in blue. Suffered a brief moment of "is that spelled right?" Googled confirmed the spelling. It's a tad disconcerting to question the spelling of such a simple word as cold.
Have a great day with little to no disconcerting moments. BUT! If they do happen, let 'em flee from your mind quickly. Pondering them only leads to more perplexingly negative moments. And we know that no moment should be wasted in such a negative manner.
Te quiero, Travelers!
