Would You Like Cream on that Floor?

Got to the office a few minutes early today and decided to make the coffee. I drink most of it, and so I figure I should contribute. I grabbed a filter, poured the grinds in and hit brew. I meandered back to my office and printed a few cases to read before lunch. I moseyed on back to the kitchen a half hour later, so ready for my morning GoJo.

A puddle covered everything, there was coffee all over everywhere. On the counter. On the floor. On the deposition tape that The Boss was watching the other day. I freaked out, moved the most important items and got to cleaning. I noticed the coffee pot was perfectly clean and shiny. Sitting off to the side of the machine, it had never been put into place.

A Master of the Mother Fucker situation.

  • Now, if ever there was a blonde moment, that was it! Kinda like when W was asked his opinion the other day about Roe v. Wade, and he commented that he didn't care how people got out of New Orleans, as long as they got out.

    Crazy East Coast Uncle! :)

  • I want a Crazy East Coast Uncle. I'd settle for a crazy uncle. All I get is a Midwest Republican Uncle.

  • Heehee - Crazy East Coast Uncle was was a relative my family discovered only within the last few years. So keep hope alive Arbusto, you may well have a crazy uncle out there too.

    If it makes you feel any better - my grandmother is the Grand Republican Matriarch of my family, spouting out nonsense like stem cell research being voodoo and all.

    We just have to wait them out I suppose. I've got dibs on family matriarch 2 generations down the road. In the meantime, I just hope Indestructible Practical Aunt gets the spot until I can take over.
