My hand and eye coordination and finger dexterity are just barely good enough to type this out in the morning. Sometimes I wake up in the morning stumbling. It's nothing new, just a symptom of waking up before I really want to - thanks Charlie. 🐩
I think that at a certain point in life, your mind to longer blinks into perfect clarity when you wake up in the morning. Honestly, I don't recall if my mind ever did that, but I think it did at least if I was sober the night before. I used to have a schedule to keep though, you know, getting to work and all that. Now my only schedule is "time to get up" because of Charlie, and "time to eat" because of both Ben and Charlie. It's a dog's world. 😂
“Coffee: (n.) caffeinated beverage God gave us to drink in the morning so we might resist the urge to crawl immediately back in bed.” - Sol Luckman, The Angel's Dictionary

Dwell's Alice Wolfe is fed up with the prevailing aesthetic of coffee shops: sterile, minimalist, and intentionally less welcoming. She writes with nostalgia about the homey feel of early '90s and 2000s cafes that were built for socializing, open after 6 p.m., and designed to encourage patrons to stay a while.

Drinking coffee, what a tasty countermeasure. To your health! ☕️
“And, our human trial study suggested that drinking coffee (approximately 1–2 cups per day) has a potentiated ability to suppress the infection with present SARS-CoV-2 strains (including the Omicron variant), and proposed that drinking coffee can be adopted in the new COVID-19 protection guide to limit the risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2.” - from the study

Watching a Korean drama years ago playing in modern times, an installation in a coffee- bar intrigued me . It appeared to be a way of coffee-making used on Dutch trade-ships in 17th C. to Asia. Called "Dutch Coffee". Ice-brewed coffee taking hours . Still popular in Asia, very few know it in Holland. ( Although a certain coffee-chain sells "cold brew).
Looking on the net, S.Korea and Japan pop up most for using it.
