Coffee Cup 599
Posted by Lloyd Y. Asato | Filed under Poetics of Peet's
This is so disorienting. I am driving around in a fog. This place is huge. There are so many people and they are all shopping at these fricking strip malls.
I have heard Phoenix described as suburban strip mall hell. You have no idea… 599.
Coffee Cup 600 and 601

Broadband, crispity crunchity broadband!
I have been cruising the hotspots (heh – hotspots in Phoenix) looking for wifi. Lots of difficulty connecting to Presh’s T-Mobile account.
Yes, I am outside. 103 is not bad, just slightly past pleasant. Folks here are complaining about the humidity. I do not notice. This is much less than what we had two days ago. Has it been only two days? 600.
There is an evil storm coming. A desert storm, as the skies goes grey and the wind picks up, is scary. Very something evil this way comes… 601.
Coffee Cup 602

I need to buy a TV for Presh. It has been too long and she is deep in withdrawals. I tried last night. We went to Best Buy and I went catatonic. TVs sure have changed since I last bought one (early nineties I think). Presh does not blink at 1,200USD price tags. She reminds me that they deliver…
I am not sure I can do it. TV shopping is hard. Let me say that the 1,200USD TV is much nicer than the 250USD one I was looking at. Cannot afford the HDTV thing. Will probably get her the 24inch Sony. I hope she likes it…
I need a desk and chair. 602.
