When I was writing more often than not I had a large orange tabby that insisted on walking on my keyboard. That made editing a real chore. He's gone now...miss him....

InLove said:Jamarz, I am a coffee lover to a degree that might not even be healthy at times! But I try. LOL--I have mostly always taken my java black, but during my illness, I rediscovered cafe con crema (sorry for the exclusion of the tildes and such). I would get up at 4:30 when I was hospitalized so I would be back in time for the doc's rounds. I would take my notebook or my sketchpad and go to the 24-hour restaurant there and get coffee, and spike it with the cream my husband and daughter brought me. I would go outside in the garden area and I would write and write and write. Or I would draw something (not very well, I suspect). And sometimes I would meet a person with a story who would sit down beside me and talk. It was a time full of all kinds of awakening.
InPeace,
InLove

Oh boy, is this a great thread or what?
Luna the Libra Lioness--I must say it fits! And I have always been drawn to Libras, being an Aquarian and all....
Flow my cat does the same thing. Makes for some interesting writing, huh? I miss all my pets that are not with me anymore, at least not where I can touch and feel and hear them in the same way.
Phyllis, my friend, I need to get a whole kitty company together to come and solve all of the madness surrounding you at the moment! But alas, I am not the greatest at directing kittys. They do, however, tend to curl in and out around my feet and offer lots of wisdom and love. I just have to be careful since I am just now walking again without waddling too much. But to me, it feels like flying!

Love my Earl Grey, Irish Breakfast Tea, Peppermint and Ginger for digestion, and Zen Green Tea Blend.

I do love a good cup of tea, also. Usually around mid-afternoon with a scone or muffin (fat free, of course), but I do use tea bags.Love my Earl Grey, Irish Breakfast Tea, Peppermint and Ginger for digestion, and Zen Green Tea Blend.
Phyllis Sidhe_Uaine said:I meant the "generic style" tea (most widely known is Lipton "Brisk" tea) not bagged tea in general. It's just that most of my favorites aren't available prebagged most of the time (like Gunpowder Green, Sow Mee White, Russian Caravan, Jasmine Pearl, Hyssop, etc.)
I have a special blend I drink for nervousness: it is a blend of chamomile, rose hips, lavendar, mint, hibiscus and lemon balm. It calms the butterflies and lunamoths that get active just before an oral presentation or some other "public appearance" (esp. before a government official.) I chew ginger instead of drinking it (I have to pick up another four cups of ginger from my favorite bulk spice shop here in town. *makes note*)

flowperson said:BTW Luna, have you seen the "Lunesta" (sleeping pills) adverts on the tube? I believe that you should file some sort of infringement suit, but I wouldn't know what kind.
Hi LinLove, I have seen those Lunesta ads.InLove said:LOL! Haven't I mentioned the Lunesta ad to you before, Luna? I never see it without thinking of lunamoth.![]()
Regarding teas--anyone here like passionflower?

Phyllis Sidhe_Uaine said:I just found out one of my classes was cancelled for the upcoming semester (Poor Yuri has a poor track record when it comes to classes being held in the Ethnic Studies department.)
What really aggravates me is that a) there is still a month until school starts, b) I didn't find out that it was cancelled until I checked on the electronic schedule and c) it was cancelled last week! I guess it was cancelled due to "lack of interest" but there are four other classes in the same part of the department that have fewer enrolled, yet haven't been cancelled
(one is on latina life in the US, one is on Hmong art and culture in the US one is on Scottish music and the other is on rap music and how it defines the African-American experience!) Okay, latina life, perhaps, but the other three...<flying finger>
Sorry about the rant. *thedelegation runs away from Phyllis Sidhe_Uaine right into the gentling hands/arms of the rest of the board, each furry member trembling with fear*
