The Protective Spirits

I got a friend. He would come over...ahhh...about once every week or two and we would sit down bs and drink coffee.

Now, I am a bit old fashion. I bought all my coffee mugs from Good Will. To me, a coffee mug, is a coffee mug, is a coffee mug.....as long as it holds coffee and I can drink from it, it is fine and dandy. laugh
Well, I had this one particular mug that was off-white in color on the inside but it had a factory glaze defect on the bottom inside. There was like a dark spot and when I first noticed it, I thought there was something stuck to the bottom of it. I scrubbed that sucker silly and it would not come out. So I took my finger down there and scraped across it and that is when I discovered it was a glaze defect. Well, it still held coffee and I could drink from it, so I kept it. laugh

So anyway, I found it strange that when my friend comes over now and I offer him coffee, he refuses. After refusing about 3 times he says that I make my coffee too strong. laugh It was fine for him the previous times he drank it. In fact I would refill his cup about 3 or 4 times. I am suspecting he got my famous glaze defect special and I think he thought he was drinking from a dirty cup. rolling on the floor laughing

Well, about a week back or so....I heard a crashing sound on the kitchen floor. There it laid in pieces, my special dirty mug. laugh

I think there might have been some sort of force unknown to man telling me something. thumbs up

Hello Palm,

Even with the handles missing, the mugs can still be used for coffee. grin
i like to stick my pinky out
laugh classy
when i toured Vermont in my 20's i saw a pottery artist's studio. i couldn't afford the perfect work so i bought some with small imperfections. i still have them.
Speaking of coffee mugs, I fell in love with Charlie Harper's coffee mug, years ago...

Palm, I have a hodge/podge of coffee cups. There happen to be two the same with the defect and I never even thought about it when I grab cups. Just be mindful to tell your guest it is not stuck on food inside when they finish their cup. laugh
Hello Mel,

The defected cup I had was actually similar to Sheen's cups. laugh
BTW, let me know if I miss something too. rolling on the floor laughing tongue
Watching a movie now before sleep....I am Legend. Kinda makes me wonder if that movie is not about our up and coming future. uh oh
wink A real friend would mention it and drink it anyway.hahaha.
wink like Robert, or meeee
(My Dad taught me that).


In a man's kitchen..well,nevermind.
Hello Patti,

laugh ...yes. I remember back in the day when I was still with my girlfriend, she wanted me to do the dishes. I did them. After I was done, she checked out how well I did...and she told me that was the last time I was doing the dishes. laugh So a man's kitchen is a bit different than a woman's. laugh
doh you definitely don't want it in your car chewing up wires.(not sure why they do that).

BTW I saw a cat fall out from a car frame when it was going down the road and I didn't hit it luckily.
wow woah!! Swerve!!
Wow Patti about the cat. I hope it was alright.

I don't park my car in the garage. laugh I turned it into my game room. :) But you are right, they do like car wires. My sister had that problem once.
Omg, Johhny... I always wondered why an ex of mine washed the dishes so quickly... He would cook and wash everything and I was always amazed... Until I found little pieces of food stuck to the "squeaky clean" dishes... doh From that day on, he cooked and I washed the dishes... laugh laugh laugh
Mel....granted it was not deliberate with me doing a poor job on doing the dishes. But if men are like me, I absolutely hate doing dishes. I think my last batch of dishes stayed in my sink for a week plus....when I can smell them, I then have to do them. uh oh rolling on the floor laughing
....trust me....I am on the edge of investing in a dish washer. grin ...the machine type laugh
I did read your profile Mel....I did like the fact that you do acknowledge that differences exists between genders. thumbs up

Men are adorable? I have never heard that before. laugh
Right back at you, Johnny!... Have a wonderful and productive day!... hug bouquet
