it's 9am, come to daddy

i love coffee. i like my coffee like my friend debbie likes her men: tall, black, and with children (i call those children sausage, egg, and cheese mcmuffins). but there is always the dilemma of where to get my coffee in the morning (despite having a coffee pot in the office, we have no coffee, and who am i to change that). there are three obvious choices: tim hortons, dunkin donuts and mcdonalds.

tim hortons is somewhat of a wildcard here, since i'm largely unfamiliar with it. this is the first i've seen in my home state, and the only other one i've seen is in pennsylvania. i'm pretty sure its a dunkin donuts wannabe, but i've heard they have good coffee. however, tim hortons is also on the left, meaning i would twice have to cut all the way across the morning rush hour traffic, so that's a drawback.

dunkin donuts is sweet, but it's also in a gas station meaning there's no drive thru. that kind of defeats the purpose, for the morning commute at least. they put their breakfast sandwiches on bagels which is great, but their egg and sausage is so plastic-y and fake.

mcdonalds has good coffee, newman's own organics to be exact. i dont know how long they've had it, or if they always have but recently changed the cups. it's still not as good as dunkin donuts coffee, but mcdonalds has the superior sausage, egg and cheese sandwich in my mind. also, the mcdonalds staff at this particular location is always very friendly, even in the morning. today the drive thru lady even told me she liked my tie. it is a nice tie.

i suppose i could just mix it up depending on what i felt like each day, but then i couldnt blog about the options cuz it would all be so simple. ok, back to this 60 page complaint with the assistance of my dark master.
