How real I keep it, 'cause it's the best secret...

...

I realized today that my coffee mug at work, a mug I randomly picked out of the cupboard and have been using for weeks, happens to be from a restaurant in the hometown of my friend Spencer.

"Harrison. Top Town in Nebraska. Elevation 4374."

The restaurant is called "Sioux Sundries," founded in 1971, and they sell a 2 pound hamburger called "The Coffee Burger."

Lately, life has been looking good for all the people surrounding me. This is a positive thing, especially considering that winter is coming soon, and as Megan always used to say, "Winter is for lovers."

But, alas, the high today in mid October is apparently 81 degrees.

I'm not complaining. Just saying.
