Dar, sounds like you're a dedicated coffee drinker like me.
Dave, my wife Susan teaches. She uses an expression that is normal in her context, but sounds odd when she says: "... one of my mothers...". She means one of the mothers of her students, of course.
So when you say "... from my kids..." do you mean your children, or your students? If it's really your kids, then they need help with gift coordination :)
Steven H, I can see how the picture of the empty mug on my desk tricked the neurons into thinking someone drank your coffee. I don't have to worry about that because when there is coffee in my mug it's more often cold than hot, but I drink it anyway. Anyone other than me would have to be certifiably crazy to drink my coffee, so my neurons wouldn't have been tricked. But then again you never know.
