A long and sleepless night and a blue morning

40 winks or even 30 were in short supply last night.
This seems to be a growing pattern with me and DH.

Those of you that know me personally can guess the
source of said sleeplessness.

In spite of feeling less than my normal chatty self, I will attempt
to give my legions of fans (all six)insight into the totally irrelevant,
useless observations in my life.

I bought this coffee pot several months ago complete
with the bean grinder and all. The coffee maker of course
has a timer on the from with the most blinding blue
LED face ever recorded. This this light is blue and this
light is bright.

The top lid that opens for the bean depository happens
to be broken. The coffee pot neurons then have to fire off the
blinking blue message OP1, OP1, OP1 with one second
frequency that translates to lid #1 is open. Okay I get it,
I get it.

It is actually difficult to look at in a dark kitchen with no
other lights on. I am willing to bet, the local airport has
received more than one GUBO (Grounded Unidentified
Blinking Objet) report.

I know what you are thinking. Why not just unplug the
coffee pot when not in use? Oh, I could, I 'expect. But prefer
to let it's blue beacon be a reminder to not sweat the small stuff.
