Of course! Who doesn't like a piping hot mug of coffee in the middle of a wake-up session?

My dad's discovery of the french press style changed his life, he uses nothing else for his coffee since.

I would love a french press, but I don't have a grinder so it would be kinda pointless :(

Good question. Three Kingdoms has been going for a while, but still a ways to go.

Blue vs Red is smaller but higher intensity, and is winding down quickly. :beer:

Or is it Red vs Blue? :ponder:

Tfw school started. And board meetings. And I have three new pupils. And overdue with a PhD report yet again. Which will be complicated to schedule and travel, due to school and the supervisor also being involved in piano jury stuff. And the phone also started ringing, asking me to accompany students of which I had received no word of until now at the late-entry admissions over at the Faculty. Which are taking place tomorrow.

:sigh:

If ears could cross like eyes when you read too much... my ears would currently be crossed from working on mixing songs for this new album. I swear, this is why successful musicians have other people do this tedious crap. :fist: :doh:


Also, all of a sudden for some reason on my Walking Dead: No Man's Land game, my Daryl is having trouble killing walkers. WTF Daryl?!?! :suspish: Not. Cool.


Other than that, life is good. :workit: And my new hiking pants are A-W-E-S-O-M-E. :nicenod:

Hiking pants are the very next item on my list of must-buys. :nicenod:

This album is... hard to define. Here's my best attempt: it's a soul, jazz, blues, folk, pop fusion. :shifty:


When wearing the hiking up pants, you must also wear the hiking down underwear. :grin:


Also, I was just doing some math. Visiting my local Dollar Trees, in the past couple of months I have purchased approximately $220 worth of books for $11. Almost all non-fiction, hardcover, best-sellers. An Elie Wiesel book, Karen Greenberg's The Least Worst Place, Those Angry Days by Lynne Olson, Gold Rush in the Jungle, I mean really quality books. Part of me feels bad about paying so little for these gorgeous books, but the rest of me feels really good because at least they will be read, enjoyed and respected instead of lingering in the Dollar Tree, and then enduring who knows what. Seriously, if anyone else here enjoys reading, you can find treasure troves there. You just have to rummage a little, and know what days the trucks come in.

Since revisions to the script continued after the book was printed, an edited version will be released in 2017 as the "Definitive Collector's Edition". :eek:

Heavy rains caused flooded roads and power outages, so school was canceled today.

On another note, the oldest son of one of our assistant principals was shot and killed last night. I went to school with him- even sat beside him in the sixth grade. It's been disconcerting in recent years to see the loss of so many people I grew up with.

I did better than last year but that's not saying much. I got maybe half of the answers right. I'm a nerd but it seems I need to broaden the scope of useless information I retain in my head. Maybe next year.
