Hit Coffee is the story of Will Truman (trumwill), a southern transplant in the mountain west with an IT background who bides his time substitute teaching while his wife brings home the bacon. This site is a collection of reflections on the goings-on in his life and in the world around him. You will probably be relieved to know that he does not generally refer to himself in the third-person except when he's writing short bios on his web page.
Greetings from Callie, Arapaho, a red town in a red state known for growing red meat. And from Redstone, Arapaho (Aw-RAH-pah-hoe), a blue city with blue collar roots that's been feeling blue for quite some time.
Nothing written on this site should be taken as strictly true, though if the author were making it all up rest assured the main character and his life would be a lot less unremarkable.
This website is maintained by Guy Webster (web), who also contributes from time to time. Web hails from the midwest and currently lives in Truman's home city of Colosse, Delosa. He works as a utility IT person at Southern Tech University, their alma mater.
Also contributing is Sheila Tone (stone) a West Coaster, breeder, and lawyer who has probably hooked up with some loser just like you and sees through your whole pathetic little act.
My stomach has been bothering me for the last two days or so. At first I thought it was because I was eating unhealthily, but it existed even after I was reining in my diet.
About three days ago, my milk started smelling a little bit funny. Tasted fine, though. I kept drinking it figuring that I’d know if it had gone bad.
The fact that it took me two days to put the two above paragraphs together tells me that I am too stupid to live.

Ouch, man. Don’t mess with bad milk. Unless you plan on using it to make yogurt, it’s not worth it.

You’re funny Will
I hope you’re not feeling too sick, and, from experience - if it smells bad, throw it out!!

Wait, though, does milk that’s gone “over” cause one’s stomach to hurt? Being over would mean it had decomposed to a higher degree than most humans would find palatable, and therefore it would probably have a high bacteria count .. but how “bad” is that particular bacteria? And, even if it had a higher rate of bad bacteria, sorry to be crude, but wouldn’t that be more of a diarrhea thing?
It’s pretty normal for milk to start smelling a little off before it’s actually bad, that’s why I’m curious.

I don’t know Spungen, but if the milk smells bad, I don’t drink it, no matter how it tastes. I just can’t stand the smell!! Having said that, Will didn’t mention if he had diarrhea or not, maybe he did

Clancy always asks me whether it’s “upper” or “lower”, meaning which direction is gonna spew* if push comes to shove. Much of the time, as is the case here, it’s been both. This was more nausea than cramp.
I should add that I have an atrocious sense of smell. So by the time that I can smell it, it’s probably in pretty bad shape. I know this, yet I keep forgetting it.
* - obviously, you needn’t worry about crudity ’round these parts.
