it's like crack, but strong and delicious

Oh dang. It def. my drug of choice. I drink Starbucks either on the fly or at home. I love Casi Cielo. Gold Coast, French Roast and Italian blends. I always drink it with about .5 inch of cream and two splendas.
Six years ago when i quit smoking I went from a cigarette every day at lunch to a Caramel Frappuccino everyday at lunch (700 calories, $4). That's how you can gain 50 lbs real fast and lose a ton of $, lol. I won't touch that crap for the rest of my life and won't even allow it in my house.
Anyway, I love coffee!

I love coffee,2.
I hear you on the BAD frappuccino stuff. My hubby's daily Venti Mocha Frap. with whipped cream prolly has more carbs than I consume in an entire day....but DAMN they taste good. I never get that stuff. The less I drink it, the harder it is for me to remember how good they taste.
I try to stay away from sweet coffee period. I drink it black. I get too out of control when I have sweet stuff. Splenda is ok but the aftertaste bothers me. My dad drinks his' coffee the same as you drink yours. Coffee, cream and splenda. He uses heavy cream in his. Yum.

They use heavy cream at Starbucks in Taiwan. That stuff even poured kinda slow. I gotta try it black. The cream is killing me. Ok, well maybe not, but it's not helping.

<sigh>......well, before my heart issues, I would go to a really good gourmet coffee shop (coffee was something I always spent top dollar on) and I would grind a mixture of either columbian or Italian with hazelnut in about a 3 to 1 ratio. Simply fabulous!! I haven't had coffee in months now......

If ur careful about the rest of the day, some cream in the morning shouldn't hurt. My problem is once I have a little, I crave it all day. I'm kinda that way with everything. I like coffee enough to get by with just drinking it black. It makes my day easier. It keeps me from drinking strawberry milk and other bad stuff.
ROFL @ strawberry milk! Would you like a side of teddygrahams with that or maybe a piece of Mr. Incredible themed string cheese? I understand sweety.myway said:
And yes, I know the feeling about always wanting more, more more of stuff. I totally relate with the folks on A&E's Intervention when they are fiendin for thier smack or whatever it is. Driving around on an absolute hunt for thier drug. I get that way with sugar. My brain is hardwired so addictivly it's scary. For real!

I had a BAD ulcer when I was about 23. Dr. told me I couldn't have coffee. I went about a year without it. WORST year of my life.
If u don't mind me asking, what heart issues do u have?
Starbucks quadruple venti latte or Tim Hortons double/double. Mostly Tims.

Starbucks always throws my system for a loop but I love it. Even the decaf gives me a boost. And those frappuchinos are awesome, my choice is mocha.
However, given the choice I'll take a Timmy's double double any day. At work we have this crappy brewer that makes shit coffee but it only costs a quarter instead of paying $2 at Starbucks or Second Cup.
However, I never learned to drink coffee for the taste, I only drink it for the caffeine. I'm not a bitter taste person.

The funny thing is: I have never seen a cop eat a donut in real life. When I was brand new in the emergency world, I was kinda curious about it. Because of the stereotype, donuts are a big no-no. They act funny if u even bring it up. They eat tons of other bad shit to make up for it,lol. I think they really miss the donuts.
12 bucks for a 10 oz. bag? I'd better be able to load it up in a pipe and smoke it.jocephus said:

Yeah maybe in a smller town, but we have a Krispy Cream and Subway right next to each other and the SPD cops are always at the Subway. Maybe they just part there and walk over to the Krispy Cream.
I had a WSP for a neighbor, he was a cool guy. I would have him play a trick on a friend and go pull him over down the street before he got to my house. We took him camping and climbing once, he was kind of clueless. We where stoned 90% of the time and I don't think he knew. We also hot boxed our tent with his dog in there, his dog was waaasted lol.

We are small here(only around 110,000) but we have a gazillion Subway and Krispy Cream spots. All EMS workers get half price at subway.

EMS is always hanging out at grocery stores. Usually two guys and one girl, standard issue.
Honest question:myway said:
Do you EMS folks just kinda hang out all day waiting for a call? Are there days when absolutely nothing happens and you are bored out of your mind?

If u work for a small town service, u spend tons of time doing nothing.
I don't work in a huge city but we are always seriously understaffed. If we get time to sit, it's usually around 2-4am. We usually have between 2-4(depending on if people show up for work) ambulances for a city of over 110,000. Not nearly enough ambulances. We have highways on all 4 sides of the city(lots of wrecks). Plus, most of the population need ambulances a lot. We aren't a big city but our rates are amoung the top(per population %) for meth houses, black on black crime and nursing homes. I grew up in Kansas City(5 times the population as Independence) and was shocked by what this place was like. I thought it would have a small town feel. I was wrong.
I'd be bored to tears if I wasn't doing something constantly. I can't stand "baby-sit" mode.
I know where Independence is.
I spent a lot of time out in Kansas City a number of years back. I remember Minksy's Pizza on what is it, Barry Rd and I-29? Awful stuff. I also remember a Japanese steakhouse downtown called GoJo's. Good shit right there.

There are about 5 Minsky's Pizza places. Yea, they suck. It's hard to find good pizza anywhere in the midwest. GoJo's is good.
Since our company is 2broke to put more ambulances on the streets, we rarely get down time. When we aren't on a call, I'm trying to catch up on reports. I hate reports. We gotta write a report every time we get sent somewhere...even if we get cancelled en route. It sux.
