Woke up, let the doggie go outside, gave him his morning water and treat, ground some fresh coffee, waited for it to brew, poured cup, added cream, reached for Splenda, looked in box to find…an EMPTY box. Oh. My. Lord.
Unacceptable. I wanted to punch someone in the face, but seeing as how I’m the only person in our house who consumes coffee or Splenda, I didn’t really have any options there. And, no, we don’t have sugar in our house. If we had, I would’ve used it for sure.
I had to wait until I got to work to drink my first cup of joe. The horror. Grocery store stop on the way home? Check.
“It is inhumane, in my opinion, to force people who have a genuine medical need for coffee to wait in line behind people who apparently view it as some kind of recreational activity. I bet this kind of thing does not happen to heroin addicts. I bet that when serious heroin addicts go to purchase their heroin, they do not tolerate waiting in line while some dilettante in front of them orders a hazelnut smack-a-cino with cinnamon sprinkles.” ~Dave Barry
