The coffee in my cup is cold and it's almost time for work


This is a new post. And that's all I got.
Ok, lets see, what have I been doing? This morning I have been drinking about three cups of coffee and writing a hub recommending a pizza bar here in town that is our current favorite place to eat and drink. They have this sandwich called the Elvis. It is peanut butter, honey, banana, and bacon on yummy bread. It's one of those things that you have to take 2 or 3 bites of to understand it. The first bite you think, huh?. The second you begin to understand what it is trying to do by mixing those flavors. And the third- no more thinking, just pure pleasure. Then you want to come back again the same week for another one.

My mom is coming out to visit at the end of March for a whole week! She, Tara, and I are going to drive to Moab, UT for a few days to hike around and see some crazy desert landscapes. I have never been to the desert. I imagine that it will be kind of like the ocean in the sense that it is sort of desolate and lonely feeling- but in a good way that makes you feel quiet and contemplative. That is what I imagine and it is how I feel when I sit and look at the ocean; I sort of love it, but am scared of it at the same time- you know you can't survive there, but it is so beautiful.

Recently our friend Merry came to visit us this past January! She and her boyfriend Aaron took a train from Omaha, Nebraska into Denver. We went to the Denver Zoo and saw a mountain lion stalk a small boy from its cage. The family and the boy didn't even notice, as they didn't really seem to be looking at the animals; they were just walking through the zoo as though they were going to receive a prize when they got to the end and had walked past every animal. Extra points for hitting more that two snack stands!

Three cups of coffee?!

Pizza/bar....could it be better than Noble Roman's? Well, maybe it could since we don't have the 'Elvis' sandwich.
