A Good Morning

Robot Socks and CoffeeI didn’t sleep well last night.  I woke up at 4:15am and was up for almost an hour.  And despite trying to get to bed at a decent hour I didn’t fall asleep until after midnight, mostly due to the hours I kept over the last week.

It was Spring Break and I stayed up late watching movies and playing video games with Sam.  It was cold all break except for this last weekend.  During which I did get two rides in on my new bike!!!!

But about my good morning.  Well I woke up a little groggy at 6am, but refreshed after having managed to get back to sleep.  I headed towards the shower and put on WGR 550 to listen to sports talk about the Sabres game.  At no point in my youth would I ever have imagined I’d listen to sports radio, ever, least of all first thing in the morning.

BUT, what made it better than just talk about a Sabres victory last night was that the opening intro music was Bottles to the Ground by NOFX.  A little punk music as soon as I tune in before I even hear a voice.  Fantastic.

The morning gets even better.  I purposely pick out my Space Invaders socks for this morning, and after a shower head to the kitchen to make coffee. Not just any coffee, I ordered whole bean coffee from TIM HORTON’S. Tim Horton’s exist all of western New York, but not in Cleveland (however I’ve seen them in Toledo).  I found a two pound bag of coffee on Amazon for $12.99.  So I fill my Denny’s mug with Tim Horton’s coffee and sit at the table to read the news.

Next amazing thing happens, WGR plays Brass Monkey by the Beastie Boys for an intro.  Fantastic.  Couldn’t be better.

Seriously.  Bottles to the Ground, Space Invaders Socks, Tim Horton’s Coffee and Brass Monkey.  It’s a good combination.
