Cold Coffee

R.a.n.t. of week 05/26/13
Currently, there is a lot going on in my life. Heartbreak, depression, lack of zeal, disappointment, etc. However, the last straw doesn't come from any of these, but from something just as irritating. It's something that happens on a daily basis while at work, and nothing I've tried seems to work. I'm talking about the temperature of my coffee. It never fails, it's always cold before I finish. I'm a sipper by nature, so my coffee lasts much longer than a thirty minute time frame. You see, I don't drink the coffee at work, I prefer to bring in my own special blends. The result is either drinking my Thermos of coffee quickly before it loses it's steam (pun intended), or try to savour as much as I can during the course of the morning as it grows colder and colder. I've tried many things, and various containers, all to no avail. So what's a man to do? Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Of course you are. Wait around for a coffee delivery service to be introduced, thus offering piping hot fresh coffee. Till then, buck up and drink the cold coffee.

  1. The benefit of cold coffee go well beyond cool refreshment on a hot summer’s day.

  2. Or, filter your coffee before you place it in the thermos, bring it to work, and put it on a hot plate set for 50 C...
    That'll work.

    (Or, you could learn to drink your coffee in seconds, like I do :-) )

    1. Hot plate is a good idea and something I've been thinking of. And yes, I could drink my coffee in seconds, but not as much fun the rest of the morning.
