The best part of the day is morning coffee. The other best part of the day is climbing in bed at the end of the day, so sleepy you're out when your head hits the pillow. The worst part of the day is knowing you have to clean up the kitchen and do 15 more tasks at your desk before lights out.

Nite nite.
