Socks+Coffee=Productivity

I love good socks. Since I'm relatively poor, I don't have that many (good socks can be kind of pricey), but they're right up there with things like milk and toilet paper in terms of importance.
I do have cold extremities pretty much all the time, and I do live in a kind of drafty old house in a chilly place. But it's not really that cold right now, and I'm still wearing some excellent REI hiking (or something) socks. The thing is, to get up at 6:30 on a Saturday morning so you can tackle your take-home midterms requires something to soften the blow - enough to keep you from crying but not enough that you just fall back asleep. I'm finding the combination of good socks and hot coffee extremely effective.

You are a woman after my own heart; I just got home from the airport after a long and germy T-ride and the first thing I did was get out my big fleecey socks and make a cup of coffee.
