It has been an exhausting seven days. I have been through a roller-coaster of emotions and, as much as I attempted to stay positive, I buckled down a couple of times.
All throughout, I yearned for some quiet time, and I did finally get some at night, but there was just so much in my mind, it was hardly quiet up there!
So just to clear my mind and lighten the load on my chest, I am giving myself the benefit of these random top 5's in my mind at the moment:

Robert's Coffee Journal
When you take a sip of your favorite brew, do you actually think about what different elements came together to bring it into that delectable liquid you are consuming? Not really, huh? What do most of us know about this side of coffee anyway?
I have declared coffee as one of my passions, and it has spurned -- apart from coffee-infused blood in my veins -- a couple of blogs, which have helped keep me sane. A friend of mine from college, though, has made his passion for coffee his work, and now, through an ambitious but enviably successful project, something worth bragging about.
He is the very same coffee expert I had quoted in previous blog entries and reviews (in my "other" blogsite), recently launched a fabulous coffee table book on -- tah-dah! -- coffee!

Short of being 007
There's this new TV ad for a sound system where Daniel Craig's James Bond is standing, cool as usual, and he'd have a gun shot, an explosion, and falling debris, if I remember right, coming at him from all sides. After glancing at where he got hit, checking out the explosion behind him, pausing a bit to regain his balance, he would just keep standing there with this determined and pointed sexy but powerful glare and 007-poise, battered and all.
He reminds me of the Energizer bunny that just keeps going on and on and on. When it does stop, it's just to pause for a change of batteries, then on it goes again.
I wish I could be James Bond and the Energizer Bunny. But there are days when I believe with all my heart that it's all nice and admirable, but not happening in real life. Then I wake up and it's another day, and I have no choice but to go on again.
