the best part of waking up

as i mentioned somewhere in the babbling of the past ten or so entries, i made some gourmet coffee tonight and something magical happened... santa came and had a couple of cups... yup, i made a bit more than six cups, had half a cup myself, and when i returned to the kitchen there was less than four cups left... what?... you are going to suggest evaporation?... in an hour or two?... well if that's the case the already seriously strong stuff is going to be concentrated, even better for iced coffee... but i am pretty sure it was santa, after all, he knew it was the strongest stuff around and needs the boost doing what he does all night... i would have some more myself, but i don't want my blood pressure to hit 300 and besides, sleep is necessary and i should make time for some even if i am wired... kind of like i must make time to eat even if i am not hungry or the body goes into starvation mode and will not burn as many calories... just must keep the calories down to as low as possible while maintaining the balanced diet high in protein that the body needs, especially as exercise begins...

but the best part of waking up is not the coffee no matter how strong and/or gourmet it is, the best part of waking up is being awake... understanding... comprehending... being conscious and aware and in touch and unafraid and ready for anything... i am so ready for anything and still, i want what i want...
