Happy National Coffee Day (Sept. 29)! I’m not really sure who or what association has dubbed it thus, but I don’t need a whole lot of convincing to give over a whole day of celebration to my beverage of choice.

Most of my readers are aware of my obsession with coffee and Read this author's blog.

Great post on your love for coffee. I'm not a big fan. My goal is to be the 1st Blogger / Social Media guy to get a sponsorship from Monster or Rock Star. At $3 a pop they start to add up fast!

I hear you. When my husband balks at stopping for coffee nowadays, I just tell him,"It's my only vice left! Come on!" When you don't smoke, drink or do anything else anymore, I think coffee does take on a more sacred view : )

Sleep? Isn't that a totally inadequate substitute for coffee and caffine? (spoken by an old time software developer).

Are you sure you aren't substituting one addiction for another, even if it is more socially acceptable and arguably healthier?

I didn't know this day existed.
Let's celebrate with some coffee cake, chocolate espresso beans & along with our cup of afternoon coffee.

As for Coffee stories,
I remember finding a friend a programming job at a cafe. I over heard someone on the next coach asking their friend for a developer; So I went over and wrote down my contact. A few days later we were looking over the contract.

so ... Happy Coffee Day!

Great post!

I have to admit being slightly jealous of the comforting ritual of the coffee lovers. Every morning, when I'm out walking the dog at 5am, the other folks walking their dogs are mostly clutching their travel mugs of energizing serum, and it just seems like such a *nice,* quiet way to start the day. Granted, I do use the morning dog walk as my wake-up ritual, too...just sans coffee.

I can't have caffeine, so never really formed the coffee habit, and while I like herbal tea, I'm not apt to get up 15 minutes earlier to brew a proper cup. I clearly lack the true devotion of a warming cuppa in the morning.

Happy Coffee Day everyone!

Considering I gave up coffee four years ago and prefer tea for the caffeine high, I must live vicariously through your coffee stories.
