Lather, I have to tell you, those are some of the best coffeehouse names I have ever heard. Really: Javarium? (Javatory!?) Mochaordinates? Shangri-Latte? Capucchino Monastery? EspressLane? Has-Bean? Sacred Grounds. Really. Amazing. (My mother used to say I say really" too often. But she has Alzheimers now, and doesn't really know who's saying it.) I want to call you a genius. But there's something "given" about that. And "creative genius", while also true, is a non-creative descriptor if there ever was one. Not very specific, in the complimentary. Not, "He can do his taxes." So then you're calling someone a creative genius, but you're not being very creative about it. No wonder they're a genius and you're not. Boy. So; these are the hazards of trying to do stuff.

I'm waiting for the market to open, and getting impatient. It's giving me the heebie jeebies. I get them very bad. Heebie jeebies, as far as I, professional heebie-jeebier, am concerned, are not heebie-jeebies unless they are severe. Severe enough to be intolerable; to make you jump out of your skin. To make you go get some coffee or alcohol. To make you scratch at and rub your skin. Okay? Huh?
