Coffee stirrings

I am sick in bed today. Mostly in bed, anyway. I feel fluish, and it stinks. I don't have time to be sick. Who does? I'm also trying to get used to my glasses and a head cold doesn't help. The pressure on my nose makes it worse. Anyway. here I sit. Laptop in the bed and nothing much to say. I received the last shipment of school books so I'm ready to really get going on schoolwork. I'm using First Language Lessons with Reid and Ryan (5 and 6). This morning I introduced the girls (general term used for Katey and Alicia, 16 and 14, but not including Sidney; she gets to go by her name most of the time) to Henle Latin. It will take some getting used to and will definitely not be a piece of cake. Hopefully I'll be able to learn with them, but I'll also be coaching Morgan and Sidney through Martha Wilson's Latin Primer 1. 

A useless bit of trivia: Starbucks baristas are not allowed to stir your coffee beverage; not even if you ask them to. Apparently, it is company policy. At Caribou, they will stir only if asked. I have not polled patrons of  any other coffee shops, so I cannot comment on the stirring policy of your favorite java joint . Feel free to do your own investigating and let me know if this is a universal taboo. In the meantime, be sure to stir your mocha, lest you drink syrup when you reach the bottom.
