Promiscuous Coffee, you're teasing me!


Ode to Waffle House coffee.
These Nellie Furtado's lyrics were adjusted to help speak my mind about how I feel about the Waffle House coffee on a beautifully blessed Sunday afternoon.

[Lashay]Promiscuous coffee
Wherever you are?
IÂ’m really thirsty
And it's you that I want
[Coffee:] Promiscuous coffee drinker
You already know

That IÂ’m all yours
What are you waiting for?
[Lashay]Promiscuous coffee
You're teasing me
You know what I want
And you ain't got what I need
[Coffee:] Promiscuous Coffee Drinker
Let's get to the point
Cause I'm on a roll
and I know you're gettin full
[Verse]
Promiscuous Coffee
Wherever you are?
IÂ’m really thirsty
And its you that I want
[Coffee:] Promiscuous Coffee drinker
I'm calling your name

But you're driving me crazy
The way you're making me wait
[Lashay]Promiscuous Coffee
You're teasing me
You know what I want

And you ain't got what I need...
and we don't have to play games no mo

To summarize for the literal non-literary types:
The best breakfast experience in the world is always a disappointment when a weak cup o coffee ruins the delight of a hot breakfast. You have to wash down a fluffy waffle, hot bacon, toasty hashbrowns with the option of cheese (always request cheese for an additional .99), and eggs overeasy with a hot dark blend of coffee. Why do people think twice filtered, watery liquide, labeled as coffee, is adequate for an All Star Breakfast Platter?

PRAISE GOD!

He did it, HE has shown HIMself true!
So Joe and I have resigned ourselves to knowing that God is good to us (please shout "all the time" now), and HE is true to HIS word. He's always taken care of us, so why won't you sell our house? We went through the phase of manipulating and trying to fix the situation ourselves, and we have failed at all attempts. So finally we said, hey hold on, wait a minute, selves, HE is GOD! He has perfect timing, stop worrying and put on your patient pants. WE did, they were kinda snug, but we got use to the squeeze and low and behold, GOD said, "and now! This is the time."
I say all this to say, we have a conrtact! GOd told me in the beginning that when we are to finally sell the house that it would happen fast, just stay faithful, and keep righteousness at your side. So I packed up the house and we have been fumbling though our garage ever since. But that was 6 months ago, and I did a lotta huffing and moping and when he said fast HE wasn't kidding. We close Sept 29, 2 WEEKS!
So we are now looking for apartments in a happy central location inbetween Gabe and AVa's schools. This will be fun, talk about the low maintance life style, nothing but our mattresses, clothes , toothbrushes and of course Percy will be joining us for the move. I'm really looking foreward to this...
Joe is coming back from KC tonight and he will be off to the ACademy on Tuesday. Perfect timing, HE is never late and HE is never early, God not JOe, JOe is on CP time!

Anywho, this is how I choose to celebrate God's goodness.
He sold our house so I decided to dance alittle. I'm white, so of course the hesitation and pride stepped in and I'd like to call it" dancing on the inside" which really manifests itself with joyful tears and blubbering. The dancing got so joyous (tears) I had to slow the truck down becasue I couldn't see the road. Sometimes I think moving my feet and actually dancing would be a whole lot easier for me than trying to contain myself.
Thank you black people for being so free in spirit that you actually dance because God is our faithful provider... I'm gonna try that sometime.

We try so hard to control things ourselves, when letting go and trusting a GOD, who can control things, is just so much more easy. Of course this takes practice!
