coffee…the nectar of hyperactivity…

Coffee is an excuse.  Coffee is a fuel.  Coffee would blow my heart up faster than a Kardashian marriage.  It may be a bit of a cliche but again, cliches are cliches because they’re true. My heart when I’m chilled beats approximately 280 times.  A normal human heart does about 75 a minute.  If I were to splash some dark morning nectar onto that 280, it could easily double.  If that were to double, the first thing that would happen is I would hear my heart beating faster and louder.  It would be as if John Bonham were using my chest as a bass drum.  Then, I’d really have a freak out.  I’d be seeing things that weren’t there.  I’d be talking fast, making no sense…it would be scary to say the least.

I remember one time I caught a whiff of Frank’s coffee breath.  Then next thing I remember I was in a pine tree holding onto a spool of thread and a french fry talking to a teddy bear.  Granted, Frank takes his coffee black so I probably got a stronger hit that if I were to smell Lezley’s coffee breath…which has cream, caramel, chocolate and some sort of nut involved.

I don’t touch the stuff.  I’m allergic to breaking the sound barrier.
