I saved two lives today

except they were the lives of ants.  It was team effort between me Iolanda and during breakfast time.  I set them free into the wild of Normal Illinois.  Our ant situation got better for a few days, but for some reason became worse again.  I still usually just watch them casually crawl all over the kitchen though.  Today I caught one hanging out in my fruit bowl. ew.  I wonder if ants have thoughts.  I mean, if I saw a living creature 68 times my size hovering over me, I would be really scared.  

Without a doubt, breakfast time is one of my favorite times of the day.  The day is young and I feel awake and ready to take on anything.  I can sit at the island in our kitchen, read the paper or a magazine, drink a nice warm cup of coffee, and relax.  Today's breakfast reading material of choice was my health ed. roommate's book about drugs.  The coffee/tea section was particularly interesting to me.  One part talked about how some Muslims in the Middle East used to use coffee as part of their religious ceremonies.  They would drink massive amounts of coffee and stay up all night praying and chanting and such.    Yes, I am every so slightly addicted to coffee, but there are worse things in life.
