A dream of the life I once had

This morning I woke up exhausted. At the office I did something I almost never do. Brewed myself a cup of coffee. I decided to make it a cappucino. There was no milk, but I found mint chocolate chip ice cream in the freezer. I put it in a bowl, ready to be steamed.

There are two coffee machines at work; I could figure out neither. Someone told me that I could go onto the server and find the instructions on how to make coffee, and how to steam milk. I said I would print it out and post it next to the machine, then promptly forgot about it. I turned the machine machine around and turned it on to try to figure it out. I prepared my coffee, the ice cream, my mugs. I tested the steamer. The ice cream foamed up nicely, overflowing its bowl. People wondered what I was doing frothing up the ice cream. I didn't have time to explain.

When I actually woke up I was exhausted. I showered and shaved, gathered my things, and walked to the office. Along the way I bought a banana. I ran into Jay at the elevator. He had a large Jamba Juice the size of an emergency flashlight. I asked him if it was the small. He said it was the "original."

At the office I poured myself a glass of water and unpeeled my banana. My head feels stuffed and heavy. Tonight I have to shoot for ACV. It's going to be a long day.
