...to start out my day. But, the doctor's office said black coffee is considered a clear liquid.

It's going to be a long day. :-(

1. OOOhhhh - one of my two favorites. The other is Kenya AA.
I don't drink coffee daily anymore, but if I have a cup those are the two kinds I like the best.

It is really weird that I don't drink coffee now. 27 years ago I drank at LEAST two full pots of coffee every day (sometimes more) and chain smoked if I was away, including in the shower. I had a resting pulse of 130 back then as well. I'm better now.

2. Ethiopian Coffee if very good
Difficult to find, but good. I am a coffee addict. Have been since I was 10 years old. Had French neighbors who introduced me to it at an early age & I never looked back. Did try to decaf once... it lasted a week & it wasn't pretty. Nearly got into a fist fight with a woman! lol

3. When I lived in N. VA, a "healthy grocer" store had beans called "Morning Buzz".
That shit was almost pure caffeine.

11. I doubt it. $tarbuck$ wouldn't do ANYTHING to reduce their profound profit margin.
$1.75 for a small cup of shit coffee (also known as a silly-term-for-large "house blend"). I bought exactly one of them because it was the only option around and the so called coffee sucked.

4. We are out of course ground for our press.
I used Rwandan espresso blend in the coffee press. Not only is my metabolism now operating at humming bird levels, my digestive system, well I'll leave it at that.

15. Oh. Yikes. And good luck on you
It's unpleasant but necessary. Any luck, there won't be a class of interns observing.

20. Hubs is doing the same tonight.
He hasn't been able to have anything but liquids all day. At least my gastro lets me have a light breakfast. All day on nothing but clear liquids is really unreasonable.

Hope all goes well for you. :hug:

21. Hope he can tolerate the prep better than I can
Not eating doesn't bother me. The MoviPrep liquid is difficult to swallow without gagging.

Thanks for the hug. Hope everything is ok w/your hubby! :hug:
