“Please, nice lady,” said the terrified cup of coffee. “Please don’t drink me.”
“Why not!?” barked the groggy, bleary-eyed beauty blogger as she ambled toward the carton of almond milk on the counter. “You’re mine! And I need you!”
“But…” pleaded the cup, “if you drink me, I’ll disappear, and I don’t want to disappear.”
The beauty blogger’s left eye twitched uncontrollably, and her hands were twisted into claws. “Bah! I don’t care! I’m not awake yet and I need my coffee!” Clumsily, she dumped the milk-like liquid into the cup, filling it close to the brim.
“Grgglrgl!” the cup cried. “I can’t swim!”
“Oh, shut-up!” the blogger screamed. “Just shut-up already!”
OK, that was dumb.
SO dumb.
LOL! But I am really that tired right now, and I have no sympathy whatsoever for the coffee I am about to consume, bwahahahahahaaa! 🙂
Hi, babe. How’s it going this morning? What did you do last night?
I made pasta for din-din and watched some PBS specials on Netflix, one about Chatsworth, which is the palatial house where Downtown Abbey takes place, and the second one was about Selfridges, the department store in London (founded by an American, who knew?). And then I watched the first half of Titanic again (because we all know what happens in the second half).
Sometimes TV is the world’s greatest cure for a frazzled mind, ya know? There are times when I literally need for my brain to be turned into mush.
In other news, I’m counting down the seconds till tomorrow because I’m heading into the city to meet my two girlfriends for the day, and I haven’t seen them in a while.
So that’ll be fun.
I hope you have a great weekend lined up. I’ll be around, as usual, so I’ll talk to you soon.

Yes, I went to London two years ago
Laure says
The coffee conversation took me back to my days working as an intern (just last year, but it feels like an eternity ago). I really needed that coffee boost to tide me over until lunch… I very much sympathise with you.
My brother is living in London at the moment so this last year, I’ve been there 2 times and while I like visiting London, I wouldn’t jump at the opportunity to live there.
I can’t remember a specific movie, but Frollo (from the Hunchback of Notre Dame) scared the hell out of me. Another horrifying Disney moment was when the boy in Pinocchio was turned into a donkey. Pretty much scarred me for life.

A movie that scared me as a child was definitely Chucky. The doll that went around and killing people definitely was not something I should have watched as a kid LOL
Rebecca R. says
I actually have been to London. It was years ago when my sister was a nanny for a family there for a year. The only bad thing about it was that I had just broken up with my first real boyfriend and I feel like I was in a daze the whole time. Hubby and I have been binge-watching Sherlock and it is really motivating us to want to go together sometime.

Nicole - Beyond the Pale and Freckled says
We watched part of a recorded episode of Behind the Seams which is basically baseball documentary. We’ve got just about no TV recording these days and an alignment issue with our DirecTV dish anyway. The baby only allows us to watch 1 hour of TV per day after he goes to bed anyway, so it all works out. But currently that’s been Halt and Catch Fire and it’s gotten cut off mid-recording two episodes in a row (due to the alignment problem, ack). Anyway. The baseball stuff is interesting but not high on my list of Friday night viewing. ;D
Ellen says
I love London – especially the Indian food 🙂
Meg says
So funny, I love horror movies and they didn’t even scare me as a child, but the movie that did scare me was Summer School – I was terrified of the part where they tried to scare the teacher by putting blood and gore all over themselves LOL. Everyone always thinks I’m ridiculous when I tell them that!
dawn says
I need the UD Pulp Fiction collection! Pick me Karen! Pick meeeee!

I’m on vaca this week, yippee!!! It’s been an entire year since my last week off and I feel kinda, almost lost with being home. I feel like I have to or at least should be doing something productive! I’m sure by tomorrow these feelings will pass. Anyway, we’ve had beautiful weather the last few week and I haven’t been to the beach at all this summer. And wouldn’t you know it, because I’m off, on vaca and they are calling for RAIN on Mon, Tues and Wed!!! Why just why?? I guess I’ll have to wait and see what the weather is really going to be, hopefully the weatherman is wrong! I mean c’mon where can you work and get the facts of your job right 50% of the time and still have a job the next day??? I should probably start my please don’t rain dance!!

The last meal I prepared was a Weight Watchers version of pork tikka masala. It was YUMMMMM!
I have been to London. Twice. 1986 and 1997. Time I went back I think.
The movie Duel, the Steven Spielberg one about the big truck chasing a man driving a car, scared the hell out of me when I was a child and I still feel sick if I think about it. I just looked it up, it was made in 1971 and I must have seen it on TV when I was under 10 so I probably saw it almost 40 years ago. *Shivers*
I had to answer all of them because the last few weeks I haven’t been able to answer any 🙂
Deborah K. says
I’ve been drinking iced coffee with what’s left in the pot and putting it with the International Delight Almond Joy creamer. Soooo good.

The Exorcist — STILL SCARES ME! Ooooh girl naw! And I’ve only been to london when I spent the night in a hotel at the Gatwick airport — I said I was from Texas and my cabbie said “oh, Cowboys” – which is very offensive to me since I am from HOUSTON! lol

I’m a spoonful of raw sugar and medium-light mud half & half girl. Every once in awhile I’ll make my own flavored creamers with milk and heavy whipping cream. My favorite is pumpkin spice which actually contains pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Yummy!!!
Pegg says
Reading a number of British beauty bloggers, I was just thinking how badly I want to go back to London. I had an amazing vacation there – the restaurants, museums, theater… We also took a few days and drove to the Cotswolds – so beautiful – and stayed at these amazing b&bs .where they would serve you homemade English breakfasts on fine china. Now that I think of it, it was a bit Downtown Abbey-esque feeling. Not quite but you get my point I hope. 😉

pauline says
So, this past mother’s day my husband got me a $75 gift card to Sephora. It got misplaced or thrown away… any way, it’s still nowhere to be found. I still die a little inside when I think about it.

Hi! I make a pot of espresso at night and put it in the refrigerator. Then, in the morning I add French vanilla creamer and sweetener & drink it cold. No one better get in the way while I’m making my delicious mixture either. lol Hoping you’re having a great week-end!

Christy Peeples DuBois says
Today has not been a good day. I do enjoy your blog and I know you can’t always feel like being upbeat because you are human but it never shows it your post.
mrsshukra says
Visited London many, many years ago!
Riah says
So, this is ridiculous, but when I was a kid, there was a sort of off-brand spinoff of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, called Snow White and the Seven Dwarfettes (yep, female dwarves), and at the end, someone gets thrown under a magic cloak that turns them to stone, and it terrified me. A lot. I seriously had nightmares about turning to stone afterwards.

How do you take your coffee? – In the summer I like a large frappe mocha…in the winter I order a medium coffee milk and sugar light (that’s how my mom always had us order her coffee when we were younger and now that’s the only way I can take mine unless its loaded up with chocolatey goodness 🙂 )
Liz says
I take my coffee with a splash of half & half, no sugar. If there isn’t half & half available I’ll take it black rather than putting regular milk in it.
Erica McGregor says
For me its a tie between cheerries and watermelon…watermelon I pretty much eat year round so I guess cherries has the edge.
