What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

Staying home in your pjs and having coffee brought to you!
Might I add a small detail? How about... and I can understand if you don't agree with me.... the person who brings the coffee on command is tall, dark, handsome, with passionate eyes, abs, and a voice the melts butter. Just a thought of course....

Now to find one and get rid of hubby for a bit. LMAO
 
lol this is winter in Alaska…if I waited for the sun to come up I’d never leave the house!

It was -15 so like I said princess parking! Up front and a plug in so my car won’t freeze up. And no cars at the coffee cart so I didn’t have to wait! There’s a silver lining!
-15? :oops:
I love cold weather, but I'm not sure if I love it that much LOL
I would need the coffee poured directly on me, not just in me at that point.

Haha that’s not how it works up here! Poured on you it would immediately freeze!

Seat warmers, heated steering wheel, heat cranked up. Make sure your window didn’t freeze closed BEFORE you get to the coffee cart or you have to open your door. When you get to work put on your gloves and plug your car in and then grab your stuff and waddle as fast as you can across the icy parking lot. Get inside to your office while cursing under your breath and asking yourself why you live where the air hurts you and finally sit and enjoy your still surprisingly hot coffee!
 
“why do you live where the air hurts?”

I picture myself covered in layers a shirt, a flannel, a jacket, a beanie and hood. Icicles forming on my make shift mustache and melting with every chilly breath just a bit warmer than the air. I am moving faster than it seems trying to find my way to the door across the Black Sea of asphalt. If I take a moment to take it in the sight is beautiful, if I take a moment to take it in time might stop, if I take a moment I might just die in the frost.

My mind wanders when I read words that seem poetic. I’m thinking maybe I could be a poet some day…or maybe I’ll just stay where it’s warm but think it’s cold and drink my iced coffee today.
 
So it wasn’t -15 here, it was 9 yesterday morning, which made me think of the saying colder than a witches tit in a brass bra. That is a real saying coined by sailors back when they were sailing ships. They always had their cannons up on the deck where they were constantly exposed to the weather. Now they always kept a large mound of cannon balls next to the cannons, which they stacked on a triangular base to keep those bastards from rolling all over the place. Wouldn’t do at all to have to go chasing all over the deck trying to find them when somebody’s lobbing balls at you. Back to the brass bra. The cannon balls were made of iron and would rust when they were always wet. If the base was also made of iron the damn things would rust solid. Some genius sailor came up with the idea of making the base out of brass and the cannonballs wouldn’t rust to the base. The base was triangular so they could stack a bunch on there easily. Once stacked up they had a pyramid shape to them. Called a witches tit. All resting on a brass base which was called a, duh, bra. And it was often really fucking cold, hence cold as a witches tit in a brass bra. 🤣🤣. And that is your history lesson for the day
