What a grouch!!!

Why do people try to talk to me first thing in the morning? Please, just let me get my coffee going, let me start my computer and let me take that first sip! I think I was just rude - again - to a co-worker . . . someone who is actually very sweet. But don't these people recognize a caffeine addict when she's racing to the sink every morning to fill her pot w/water? Don't they recognize the no emotion on the face as a sign that life doesn't start flowing until the cream and sugar hit the veins? Now I have to go make small talk to this woman who I'm sure I offended by showing not an ounce of interest in her story . . .
