coffee goddess

i have an ideeeyah...

want to buy a kiosk and paint it bright tropical colors and hang long grass and coconuts from it, you know real cheeseball ABC Hawaii stuff. i'm gonna get a generator and hook up my Keurig coffeemaker, and sell coffee and water on the beach. for two bucks a cup. no plastic cups, i'll have to use ceramic to cut back on trash..i'll have a dishwasher clean the cups as everyone does their shots. we might need an extra cart for cups.

ok anyways, coffee and bottled water. maybe kava too but i'm not sure of the current legalities of that. we had a kava hut on big island but only us locals went out that way. kava gives you an interesting buzz. don't plan on doing anything afterwards. it's best done ceremonially but i know of a gal in Kona who sells it by the cup right along the avenue, you sit down and chug a cup and wander/teeter off down the street.

i'll have cute bikini clad chicks or bare chested local guys making the coffee (i'll be surfing) .

we'll call it Kava Java or Kava Goddess or maybe Merjava. Hey Merjava has a good smooth sound to it. NO i'm not drinking coffee right now hahahahhaaaa of course I am..i have to study. but hey wouldnt that rock?

there's a section of sand right across from the zoo (and starbucks lol) ..it's prime real estate. i bet the rent is 12k a month. maybe i can get a kama aina discount :)

isn't this the most perfect picture ever? can you think of anything better than some dude serving you fresh hot strong coffee while you are on the beach? a nice sunny warm beach? in hawaii?

a word to the wise

paying the extra cost for iv sedation when having wisdom teeth removed is well worth the cost especially if you are anxious when it comes to anything tooth related. i get extreme anxiety just during a teeth cleaning and would opt for sedation if it was allowed. i'm the biggest baby ever. miraculously i have excellent teeth. but the wisdoms has to come out

was going to have just two taken but i had some last minute sales in the store, my doc was delighted to hold out his hand and receive my hard earned money.

honestly i was too out of it from no morning coffee to be scared. knowing you won't be aware of what is going on is a big help. had i known they would have had to go up in my sinuses and drill i dont know if i would have sat down at all but that wonderful little iv had me seeing purple lights and entering that bliss world for an hour. supposedly i woke up again. doesnt surprise me, i woke up during the boob surgery too. it's known that it takes redheads more sedative to keep up knocked out. oh yes but purple lights. i dont remember anything else, i think its the versed that impairs memory.

waking up was a bitch. i cant believe the surg assistant was able to understand me. she gave me a bag to barf in. i tried to bite on gauze but was feeling so nauseous and the taste of blood down my throat was making it worse. i remember seeing my doc walk past the window on his way to lunch break as i asked the surg if i could have something for nausea and a percocet immediately. my head hurt so bad but i think it was coffee withdrawals. my entire jaw ached. all i could do was barf and drool into a bag and try to wipe my tongue. it took me a while to come around and i didnt want to stand up because i knew any motion would make me throw up. i waited in the chair and the doc came back from lunch, we joked a bit and he gave me a shot of phenergan in the arm. by wheelchair i was taken to the car , by the time we were almost home i was able to swallow a percocet and the world had stopped spinning.

TY pulled the bed back for me, gave me a barf bag, water and some paper towels and i passed out for a few hours. thank god he had the day off. no way i would have been able to care for the baby. i woke up around 430 and ate a potato, had a shake then took another percocet and struggled to stay awake till 8. woke up once to take another perc but by morning i was sore but it was tolerable. enjoyed a lovely cup of coffee and am now on half a percocet since we dont have ibuprofen here and i need to stay awake to watch over the baby.

i have no brain to concentrate, read, work, anything but blogging is pretty easy . am glad its over, am glad i had all four at once. now on to cervical surgery my next health event. i'm becoming a pro at surgeries.

the good news is i talked the doc into letting me volunteer at his clinic to get experience. by the time i get my nurse license back and have some experience i should be a marketable little bitch huh?

but i'll still run akai. love it too much to close the door, will just slow it down so i can volunteer and learn something new.

life without coffee

i dont even know what to say cuz i'm not on my usual morning sugar high. the fact that i'm getting my wisdom teeth taken today does not bother me as much as dealing with a morning without coffee. i can't cope. i hope no one asks me my name, my brain is flat lined and i can hardly write. wow am i addicted. i need a twelve step program for coffee. a friend told me coffee spikes insulin levels for nine hours. it's probably true. i crash later and then am damn tired and grumpy. oh but the high in the morning. i get a lot done.

what makes it worse is its a cold morning in hawaii. mainlanders think its always warm here. seriously since we've been back from arizona i think i've seen the sun for about 20 minutes total. that sucks. i know..rainforest..but gray skies chip away at my psyche. i think i require more sugar to counter the effects of gray skies and cold weather. gimme sun people. give me a long expanse of perfect, dry, colorful desert with clear blue skies and a startling sunrise and i'll see if i can infuse the sun energy instead of drink coffee. but i'm not sure i'm willing to try giving it up til we leave this rainy gray place.

and..they took away the one beach we liked to visit. they are re-doing the boat ramp and you know construction workers love to drag their feet. the only way in is to walk over glass sharp lava rocks. not something i want to do with a heavy board in hand. bitch bitch bitch. hawaii aint the end all paradise . i miss oahu but you have to live in a tiny closet on oahu unless you are rich. crap. i still have three and a half more hours.

those that are still emailing me last minute stuff..sorry i'm too fuzzed to write back. my brain has left the building.

texas

today i made a turd the size of the state of texas. i made the mistake of piggybacking curry (my deadly sin), a bowl of salty sweet kettle korn, and some decently strong but piss poor instant coffee with sugar free creamer. the sugar free creamer was a mistake. i hate getting home from the store realizing i paid hiked up hawaiian prices for dairy that doesnt have sugar in it. sugarless things taste like crap. same with fat free.

but anyways if you are suffering from constipation that stuff works like a charm. as much ass sitting as i've been doing lately i can't believe things are still moving freely. it's raining. again. it's just that gentle annoying rain that sits in your hair. we were supposed to be clobbered with record amounts of rain but i'm still waiting. it's ok it was a fine excuse to not dye much over the weekend. i've been with the mini diaper filler and he's quite the joy to be around.

my neighbors are arguing again. well more like death screaming. they have a 17? year old teenage girl. my condolences. as much as i wish for a tiny girl i can dress up and be my mini-me i dont envy those who have young women who have hormonal surges and a loud mouth.

after seeing only glimpses of the sun for the past four days , i am once again ready for arizona. i have this idea about a business card, a woman in a gray world and ther only color in the photo is an akai scarf around her neck, the trails blowing in the wind. take my idea and i'll cut your hands off. just kidding.

time to get the game on

after another pathetic 6 hours of sleep (need 8) i've decided to suit up with Africa Kitamu coffee from Starbucks. friends, i made it strong enough to make spackle out of it and i'm not impressed. strong bold coffee should ignite you the moment you take a taste. i've downed half a cup so far and am still waiting for the lift off. lots to do today. but my nocturnal state wants to howl at the full moon and sleep all day. i may be pregnant. but you are all used to hearing that.

good day comrades!
