Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Rhymes with Ale
Waiting for the coffee reminds me of the tale of the turtle and the hare. It is not always the fastest that wins the day. A good rationalization for a petulant machine. Finally, the cup arrives, and it is time to grab the clock. We set it for February 24, 1924. Destination: College Park, […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Heavy/Light/Dark
Brewing can’t be rushed. The coffee machine takes offense to pacing and wringing of hands. Of course, the machine is like a drug dealer who doesn’t use. It has no empathy for those strung out waiting for the next fix. Jonesing for the dark, sensious liquid to fill the cup, is a heavy burden, […]

The coffee has been delayed. Checking my watch for the fourth time does not seem to help. Finally, within the bowels of the pesky machine, I hear the faint rumbles that assure me that soon the liquid soothing syrup will be streaming out of the spouts. Sure enough, here it comes. After a deep […]

Stream of Consciousness Saturday – “Make the Call”
A big gulp of coffee reaches the brain in less time than is reasonable to hope. With the cobwebs gone, it is time to fire up the clock. The choice is to continue to make 1923 mistakes or finally move into 1924. Someone needs to make the call, and it has to be me. […]

Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – “Close Up/Close-up”
A fresh cup of coffee from Her Majesty The Coffee Queen and the day can begin. It is refreshing to have a close-up and personal relationship with such royalty. After a couple of sips, thoughts turn to the clock. Opening the cabinet door and reaching for the clock means we will be taking a trip. […]
