God DAMN it feels good that it's FRIDAY. The little buggers can buzz off for 2 days and give me some sanity back. Twisted Evil

Anyone else starting to feel burned out right now? Maybe it's the season change. I'm going to take a few days off soon.

My friday ritual in Korea: head to Nowon to Dunkin Donuts. Get two donuts and a coffee. Sit at the window bar with my laptop and write. If its summer, ooooooogle chicks.

My frieday ritual in Toronto: Take the car to work (I usually grab the express bus mon-thu) so I can bugger home earlier. Go home. Check my email. Head out to Pizza Pizza. Eat a couple slices. Read stuff I've printed out from the web (blogs, news items, wiki articles). Go down to Yorkville and have a coffee there and continue reading.

Life is good.

I remember reading somewhere that Starbucks had the highest caffeine levels of all the places they tested. After one of those grandes I get the jitters sometimes. Shocked

Not only is McDonalds coffee the best tasting coffee, it's cheaper than Mister Donuts, Mr. Brown, Tully's, Starbucks or Detour. Alas, i admit it's cheaper just to brew your own coffee at home.
