I never thought when I was younger that I would ever learn to drink coffee. I always thought it smelled wonderful, but tasted horrible. Mountain Dew was my drink of choice to wake up in the mornings. About 5 years ago I decided it was a terrible thing to drink all that sugar first thing in the morning, so I began to force myself to drink coffee. At first, it was loaded down with cream and sugar...not exactly much healthier than the sodas. Then I decided I was a big girl and big girls should be able to drink their coffee black. Ever since that day I have been a black coffee drinker and can't imagine drinking anything else anymore. Today I am thankful that I am a converted coffee drinker, since I'm still so sleepy I am typing this entry with one eye open. Coffee is definitely my friend today.
