My eyes are getting tired. My eyelids are growing heavy. I’m starting to feel sleepy. No, I’m not under hypnosis. I’ve been up since 5 this morning. I’ve been running around all day, and it’s beginning to show.

On days like this, I wish I could just wish myself away from the rush hour traffic and the incredible heat and humidity.

What I need right now is a steaming cup of coffee the strength of kava root. Such an exotic name for a herbal supplement that grows in the volcanic regions of Hawaii. It’s guaranteed to revitalize me instantly because it’s so potent.
