This morning has been strange. I have my habits, you know? I wake up early and I watch an episode of White Collar while having breakfast and then I get ready and go to work. This morning, however, my routine was disrupted at 7:20 am by the postman. The fact that he actually rang for packages is rare enough, but this early in the morning, the man even apologised upon seeing my dishevelled, bleary-eyed self.

BUT. I cannot be angry! Because Mr Postman got me a package and in this package was the most amazing thing ever. Because [livejournal.com profile] imaginarycircus is SO AWESOME and sent me Kona. I opened the package and right away, through closed plastic bags I could smell the coffee. So whatever I already had one but I made myself another coffee and oh, oh. I get so used to drink instant coffee that this just hit me square in the face with oh such richness and amazeballsness. SO NICE. I WILL CHERISH THIS COFFEE. THANK YOU SO MUCH [livejournal.com profile] imaginarycircus, I WILL SEND YOU YOUR TEA AS SOON AS!

The rest of my morning sucked - from the moment I left the house, but nevermind that. I have been mostly listening to Dev and DJ Fresh to keep myself bouncy.

Now I am eating Skittles, and now there are blue Skittles and they're supposed to taste of cherry cola but I really don't taste it.

And I'm supposed to write but my Muse is pouting in a corner for some unknown reason. So I'm not writing, instead, I'm poking [livejournal.com profile] stjarna1984 incessantly so she'll tell me how the beta'ing of Chapter 2 of Boxer!Danny is going. 10 000 words is a lot of words, folks.

I cherish my cup of real coffee over breakfast *so much* it's just not true.

We only have instant on the boat, so when we got back into Portsmouth on Saturday after failing to get to France the first thing I did when I finally rolled out of my bunk was hunt down a coffee shop and buy a large Cappucino ("Would that be four or five shots of espresso in that, madam?" "Make it six!"). It's amazing how much better the world seemed after good coffee and a hot shower... :)

I'm so lazy I mostly drink instant? But then I'll have a cup of real, good brewed coffee and I'll think 'why do I do this to myself'.

I feel like I can still smell that Kona when I think about it enough. Seriously, have not drunk a single drop of instant at work today, I'll just wait until I'm home to drink some more real coffee XD.

YAY GOOD COFFEEEEEE MMMMM.

I'm sorry the rest of your morning didn't go well--here my in-laws are visiting so today is kind of a relaxing day, and it feels much less like a Monday than it does a weekend. :)

I had troubles at work - people expecting me to know how to do things I've never done before and telling me off/telling me how to do it AFTER THE FACTS. And I forgot my book and I hate not having a book in the Tube D:. If I was on Twitter I'd use one of these #wowyourissuesgirl...

Yes, it smelled wonderful when I put it in the box. :D I am so glad it arrived and that you are enjoying a little bit of Hawaii.

So how was Harrods?!

Ellen doesn't like coffee but she likes the smell, and both Von and I like it so I've left it on the counter to spread amazing smells in the kitchen XD.

It was BUSY and ENORMOUS. The Ladurée shop is SO SO pretty, heeeep. If it wasn't so expensive and on the other side of the city I'd enjoy going there regularly...

The shop I went to in Paris was beautiful. It's also a restaurant and we had the most insane lunch with pink champagne.

excuse me, I shall turn into a snob for a second here: pink Champagne is not real Champagne. /snob

(sorry, was born in the Champagne region of France, I am terrible when it comes to it!)
