So Up It Looks Like Down To Me

Today I treated myself to a frothy vanilla amphetamine. I had one of those Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf cards where you buy 12 and get the 13th free. The last 12 concoctions from CBTL were all either iced teas or Japanese Cherry Green Tea. I am not a coffee drinker. At least I haven't been in over 12 or 14 years. I even try to stay away from black tea.

However, I recently found on a cold football-watching Sunday that one of my football-watching bartenders makes a hellovan Irish Coffee with a twist and I don't mean lemon. Made me wish I could drink coffee every day.

So when I marched into CBTL on this 75-degree day, I said to myself, self, why on this lovely winter day, waste a freebie on an iced tea? So I ordered a Cafe Vanilla Soy Latte. Large.

Now I can't get the dishes done fast enough or my hand washables done fast enough or the dog brushed thoroughly enough. Now I'm getting a headache. My fingers are twitching. Gotta scratch my head. And the back of my hands. My feet are tapping and there's no music on. Should eat something but don't feel like it. I think I need to crash. Don't think I could do this every day. Damn that was a really damn good drink.
