Still Awake

Ok, so apparently my 2hr nap is my new system, because I am not tired at all. But at least I've been given the opportunity to watch quite a bit of nick@nite :)

Sigh...

I almost made it, I thought I would, but then I crashed! I took a nap, about an hour and a half, and then the phone woke me up. It was the Keurig people, they finally called, only to tell me after about 30 seconds that there was nothing that could be done. My baby can not be saved *sniffle*. They were nice enough to offer me a discount on a new brewer, a pretty hefty discount I must say, but I still can't afford to cough up that much cash right now : (. Thankfully there is no expiration on this offer so I will hopefully get one sooner rather than later. So until then I will visit their website, and stalk QVC because they have quite a few amazing deals around this time of year.

Interestingly enough, I feel like I've slept more than just an hour and a half. Maybe this will be my new system, stay up all night, nap in the afternoon? Nah.

Remember When Staying Up All Night Was Cool?

Do you remember when you were 13 and staying up all night was the coolest thing? At what age does that change? Due to some recent changes in my professional (ha, how lofty of me) life, my sleep schedule has been severely disrupted. So early this morning, at around 4:AM, I decided not to sleep since I had to do something at 7:30 anyway. "Why not just stay awake through the day, and then get back onto a normal sleep schedule tonight? I can do it! I used to be up for 48hrs. straight back when I was 18." NOT!! It is now almost 9:AM and my eyes feel like I've gone through a sandstorm. I don't know how I'm going to stay awake today! Oh the things I took for granted when I was young...

I Need My Keurig!

I must tell you that I love coffee, can't imagine my life without it, am not a pleasant person if I don't get it. I love the smell, the taste, the feeling of comfort I get as its warmth slides down my throat. So you can only imagine how upset and annoyed I've been since my Keurig stopped working 2 days ago. I don't want to give the impression I used it religiously, in fact I'm kind of a coffee slut; I get it from many different places, in many different ways. But knowing I can't have it at home, whenever I want, in less than 2 minutes, is starting to freak me out and piss me off!

When it first stopped working I called customer service and a very nice gentleman stayed on the phone with me for about 45 minutes as he walked me through different things that could help. They did not. He then advised me an "advanced technical support representative" from the CORPORATE office would be calling me to help me. I felt so special, so appreciated as a customer... that was 2 days ago! I called this morning and was advised that it could take up to 48 hours for someone to contact me... IT HAS BEEN 48 HOURS!

I got coffee from the golden arches, it was okay, not bad. But I want my Keurig! I want to pop in the    K-Cup and have instant bliss. But in the event my beautiful Keurig can't be fixed, I shall be writing a letter to Santa, or actually logging onto QVC. A girl should be able to get herself a Christmas present, and this just might have to be mine!

Hope everyone out there enjoyed their coffee this morning!
