How I spent 152.00 for a lousy cup of coffee…

…or, why I am a total moron who is not to be trusted with their own schedule. This morning I hauled myself out of bed at 4 am, so that I could be showered and ready to board a bus to Ithaca, New York by 6:30. I had to catch that bus so that I… Continue Reading
