A cup of contemplation
A good day starts with coffee, black and hot and sweet, in the largest mug within reasonable reach, and a quiet warm comfortable space where it may be sipped and savored.
After a meal and a walk and whatever tasks require attention, a good day continues with beer, either at the Parkway Lounge or Rooz Cafe, or maybe Baggy’s-by-the-Lake or (if I can get it together to make it when they’re open) the MacArthur Garage Brewery or the Commonwealth Pub. Some days, it’s a Linden Street Brewery Urban Peoples’ Common Lager or a Burning Oak Black Lager. Today was an Oakland Brewing Company Black Lager.
Some days, the streets fill in nicely as stimulant and as intoxicant.
