mod_scorchingHotCoffee
Just as I started off my morning with a fresh WordPress installation, and a new years optimism rushing through my veins, trying to think of a way to kick off a new blog with enthusiasm, champagne, fireworks… I noticed the steam billowing from the top of my tall coffee mug. Ahh.. freshly brewed, hot silky smooth black coffee.. a coincidental metaphor for my new blog.
[lift mug - take sip]
Oh dangit, WAY TOO HOT! Tongue feels like sandpaper.
[lower mug - ka-plunk!]
[splash of hot-liquid recoiling directly into right eye]

My 3.7 year old daughter asked me, “Daddy, band-aid for eye?” Yes, Grace, band-aid for eye.
So the lessons of the entry: If you have a plan, chances are, you’ll get to where you want or need to go. When things come up (ex: searing hot coffee scorching tongue and eye), you may need to adjust, reschedule. MySQL configured. WordPress installed. Warm, inviting, and clever first blog post, rescheduled for tomorrow.
