    Hee, Hee, Pee, Pee. Okay enough.:D

    I've got to go get my third cup of Java, so I'll be back in a bit.

    Hey, question, what's everyone doing for Easter?:confused:

    My Mom has been in FL with her parents for the past week and a half - they aren't doing well at all. My Grandfather's Alzheimers is getting much worse. She's on her way back home and is going to spend the weekend at my place. Will be nice - and a good de-comp for her. She's been through Hades this past week... may hit a spa or get manicures... pamper her a little bit.

    Oh and eat Cadburry :)

    I totally thought that Easter was next weekend, so I need to get my ducks in a row...
    Why do I do this kind of stuff to myself? It will all be OK! Go get some more coffee start... right now!

    Hip hip hooray, I'm so excited.

    Anything on ice or frozen is my weak spot. Currently my choice is Starbucks Iced Coffee Italian Roast with 4 sugar and cream. I also have 4 coffee houses and coffee drive ups that do know my name and my choice of drink. They just ask if I want the usual today and whip it up just the way I like it. I choose my coffee spot by location but mostly what I feel like drinking. And like another already said I wish they delivered, because I run a day care facility and I just don't make coffee the way the experts do, trust me I have tried.

    LOL! Welcome to my coffee shop love_pup! You're among fellow addicts! :)

    Yup, I know what you mean. I SO wish coffee delivered. There has GOT to be someone in my area that does! I mean, really, they deliver Pizza, why not coffee?

    Oh you guys, I see vans around here all the time that deliver coffee. I also see the guys on the bikes delivering everything from certified mail to a bag of M&M's. :)

    That's not fair, Starty!

    That's it... I'm googling Coffee Delivery...

    Pizza doesn't spill on your lap and cause third degree burns.:D

    I'm back. Starty, I totally forgot about Easter until my husbands cousin called and invited us for Easter dinner. I've got to go and get the easter basket supplies tonight.

    Oh, sad thing, my 9 year old told me yesterday that he knows that I'm the Easter Bunny, I wanted to cry, they grow up way to fast.:(

    OK, all I'm getting are catering companies and listings for coffee shops. I KNOW where the shops are, I want them to come to me! Cause, gosh darnit, don't they know who I am! Man...

    Again I ask, where's my strapping single guy that brings me coffee??

    Sneezy, HChicky wants her coffee. Are you sleeping on the job? You're never going to win her heart this way. Come on, I thought I taught you better than this. WAKE UP!

    Yes, Sneezy, the chocolate chip pancakes were divine, but coffee please! ;)

    Hey, what do I have to do to get some chocolate chip pancakes? Not fair, I should get pancakes, seeing that I'm the one who forced you guys together. :D

    Waiting for the pancakes.:(

    Mmm... coffee straight from Columbia... mmmm... You're goooooood, Sneezy.

    Ah, that's so sweet. How's tomorrow sound? I'd like blueberry pancakes, a side of hash browns, two eggs sunny side up, oh, and bacon. I'll be over around 9ish, can I bring the kids? Don't forget the coffee.

    I've been busy giving Dear Abby advice to teens and the forlorn. Why do I read those posts?

    Works for me! I'd like a western omelette rather than the sunny side up... mmm... Sneezy's a good chef, Alty, you won't be disappointed! :D

    Yup, teens and forlorn... thank god they have us, really!

    I don't know if they're happy to have us after I give them advice, I really have no patience for stupid people doing stupid things. I've got to learn to step back. Although I was pleasantly surprised today, I got a private message from a 6th grader, she asked me to look at her thread and offer some advice because she liked the fact that I didn't beat around the bush and I'd tell her my honest opinion. Maybe I'm not so bad after all.

    5th cup of coffee, Yikes, time to switch to water.

    It's the private messages like that that really make the difference, aren't they? I got one once that asked if she could email me again if she ever had problems because she appreciated my opinion. Makes you feel like you've done something good.

    5th cup! Niiiice. I'm hitting starbucks for lunch again...

    I didn't tell you, because I thought you'd be jealous, but since you brought up Starbucks; I went to McDonalds yesterday.
