“This Is A Jumbo Coffee Morning. I Need Coffee In An IV.”

This conversation took place over the course of four and a half hours. I watched in silent amusement because I don’t drink coffee.

At 6:00:

Sister-In-Law: “Hey, [Brother], can you make some coffee?”

Brother: “Sure!”

At 7:30:

Sister-In-Law: “Were you going to make coffee?”

Brother: “Oh, yeah!”

At 9:00:

Sister-In-Law: “Did you ever make coffee?”

Brother: “Yeah.” *Looks at coffeemaker* “Oh, crap, I didn’t turn on the coffeemaker. At least I put in the coffee and water!” 

He starts the coffeemaker.

At 10:30:

Sister-In-Law: “You know what we forgot? We have coffee!” 

Brother: “Oh, yeah!” 

They finally poured their first cups of coffee at nearly 11:00.

As a kid, I joked that taking Ritalin for my ADD was impossible because as soon as one dose wore off, I forgot to take the next one. Apparently, caffeine works the same way.
