(No) Coffee and Donuts

This morning post-gym Eric and I established a new Friday morning ritual. We drove to Safeway and picked up donuts (one glazed for me, two chocolate-frosted for him) and retreated to the car. We listened to NPR and licked our fingers and played "guess-what-kind-he's-getting" for each construction worker that arrived for their own morning donut. "He's a maple kind of guy." "No, chocolate with sprinkles." "Pfft, definitely jelly-filled." I was two for five. Coffee would have been an excellent compliment to this pre-weekend feast, but unfortunately Starbucks has now invaded most California Safeways, and you can no longer get a cup of deli-coffee for $1. Plus, I think Starbucks drip-coffee tastes like dirt. I had a side of 1/2 a banana instead and a handful of almonds instead.

Now I'm home so I can make my own coffee and use the sugar/caffeine rush as study fuel.
