We don't have any Humidors! Borders (bookstore) switched from Starbucks to some other brand of coffee and I didn't think it was as good. However,
you can get a big bag of Hawaiian Kona at World Market for $10 and it's pretty decent. Folger's French Roast is drinkable if you make it strong enough. Still not Starbucks...About marriage - I've been with my husband for 17 years and I kind of picture the marriage as a long voyage on a ship. Sometimes you get sunny skies and smooth sailing, other times you hit the "perfect storm" and things get so rough, you swear you'll be washed overboard and drowned. Right now we are kind of riding out a squall...I asked him if he wanted to go to marriage counseling because he doesn't seem very happy but he said no, he just considered that "mud-slinging". He's not a real communicative guy when it comes to talking about his feelings. Maybe when I start making a regular paycheck again he will be happier. Sigh...also maybe when he realizes that I'm doing something I like, instead of feeling like a packhorse, I'll be happier too.
I have an interview today to do a mural at a school for disabled children. I'm pretty excited about it - I like little kids. I'd like to do a Wizard of Oz mural but I'm sure they want something like teddy bears.
Speaking of that, Glenda (the good witch) - her real name was Billie. I think she should have been from the South and they should have called her Billie, since she had that Southern belle thing going.

P.S. When they grind your coffee, what difference does it make if you have a flat-bottom or cone-shaped coffee filter? Always wondered that. -G
