The CS department has an espresso machine, which I basically never use. For a while after the kitchen was spruced up, we had a simple one-button model. But that kept breaking down, until one day it disappeared and was replaced by an older version. I could learn to use it, I suppose, but most days, I just make a pot of coffee with the coffee maker in my office. And whe I want something a little fancier, I will go out.

Today was a day to go out. The carpet in my office was just cleaned this morning, so I’m trying to avoid working there; and in any event, sometimes I enjoy a change of scenery. So for now, I’m sitting in Starbucks, having just finished one task and getting ready to move on to the next one.
