Underage Drinking February 9, 2012
Posted by clintcarter in Beets.trackback
I have never liked coffee. Sure the aroma is nice from time to time, but who would want to drink the stuff. For the past 15 years when people have asked me if I drank coffee, my standard reply was “I’m not old enough.”
Well now that I’m old enough to run for president, I figure that excuse doesn’t work anymore. So I’m trying to acquire a taste for the stuff.
For those of you who think I’ve gone off the deep end, I have 2 logical reasons for branching out. 1) Coffee is cheap. I spend a lot of time studying at coffee shops. I normally buy Chai or Hot Chocolate. Both drinks normally cost twice as much as a cup of coffee. So by learning to like coffee I will be saving money. 2) Coffee has fewer calories than my drinks of choice. So not only will I get richer, but I will also get skinnier. This is what we in the biz call a win win scenario.
I’ll keep you in the loop so you know how the process is going.
The only problem is you move on to mocha, and then expresso, and the calories come back with a vengeance…;)
Your two reasons are the exact same reasons I started drinking! Now I love it!! And when I don’t have it, my head gives me a nice little headache, thus continuing the coffee-drinking cycle.
