Coffee Break is my favorite time of day.

 Maybe you already know this about me, but I like coffee. 

That being said, you might ask, what am I breaking from? I answer, does one need a reason for a coffee break?

My day goes like this:
  • Wake up
  • Walk
  • Breakfast
  • Take a coffee break
While that doesn't sound like the kind of schedule that would require a break, I always look forward to a homemade latte. I love making it and I love savoring it. 

Lately, I've been using my coffee break as a time to do an insanely difficult puzzle (like the new Killer Sudoku from the LA Times website). It's mentally stimulating (in a challenge-your-brain sort of way) but it is arguably a huge waste of time (meaning it's totally non-productive).

The thing is, I can easily list a dozen things I ought to be doing but nothing that has a deadline which is a problem for me. I can just as easily put off everything on the list.

Coffee Break is a wonderful time to write, as I'm doing now. It's also the perfect time to call a loved one to check in and connect.

The biggest problem is this: The worst time of the day is when Coffee Break is over.


Now I have to get back to doing ... something.
