@ Lili....Hmm....maybe Mistery and her alien powers can help ya get a pic for ya later. I'm guessing she'll be along in an hour or two with her morning cup of coffee. Let's hope she doesn't pour it into a clear regular glass this time!! LOL! That was SO funny!! Let's also hope she didn't keep her hubby awake laughing the night away!
Lol !! You remind me that again!! I bet she kept laughing all the night dreaming of your looney dance!! And she might pour coffee into a cereal bowl this morning instead of glass!!(sorry Mistery..)

Oh yeah, I poured my coffee on the cat in the mug this morning, so it jumped out of the mug. I need to look for an alternative breakfast now
Oh, yes, coffee has a way to brighten (or not) ones day. I wanted to heat mine up a little so a thought I'd do it in da micro wave. Only beeing in a not so awake state, I missjudged the distance and coffee got spilled all over the kitchen. I felt really stupid.

EDIT: Yes I did Mistery, LOL!
Oh, seems we both have coffee problems.
Any therapy against it? Let me think....

Oh, yes, of course there is. It's called hypno therapy. It is a very serious matter to have coffee problems because valuable coffee might get, well, SPILLED.
Well, I signed in here, but I have no idea what is going to happen *hint, hint*
No you crazy alien that is not the way to go about it. Here is what really happened:
In agreement with the doctor, Mistery set out to find a hypno therapist to cure her of her horrible coffee dropping problem. She searched the computor and found one that seemed sufficent for the purpose, made an appointment and so beamed herself to where the therapist lived. As she walked into the office tha little room was all covered with bookshelves with strange litterature. Curiously, Mistery examine the litterature. "The ways of the mind", "Symbols and figures", "Translating dreams". Puzzled by the fact that books had been written on such unreliable data she placed herself in the chair in front of the desk as the therapist had a seat behind the desk.
"So, the therapist said, what seems to be the trouble?"
"Well", said Mistery very frankly, "I have a problem concerning spilling coffee. As you can understand this is not very practical when you are in a spaceship."
Oddly, the therapist sized Mistery up as though she had said something wrong. From the data collected about human behaviour, Mistery knew that smiling usually works to encourage humans. She smiled.
"Ah, yes, the therapist said", nodding her head in a gentle way, "why don't you come and lay down over here."
There was an ottoman nearby with a cumfy armchair at the head end. Mistery willingly laid her self on the ottoman, puzzeled by the proposition but figured there had to be a human technology involved that she had little understanding of.
"Close your eyes and breath deeply", the therapist said, "just relax".
Mistery took a deep breath and tried to relax allthough it seemed strange to ask of her to be relaxed in her position. It was not difficult to get relaxed at the ottoman.
"Now coooooncentrate on my voice", the therapist said.
Mistey concentrated on the voice.
"When I count to three, you will faaaaaall into deeeep sleeeeep".
Shocked by the idea that somebody could actually make her fall asleep by meerly counting, she gasped.
"No, no, juuust concentraaaaaaate on my voice", the therapist said. "One, two threee, you are deeply asleeep".
Mistery felt very puzzeled by all this, she could have sworn she was not asleep. Maybe it is not a thechnology, but yet another ritual she had gotten herself into.
Let's see what is going to happen, Mystery thought. So she simulated to be in a deep sleep.
The therapist said: "Remember back, when you first spilled coffee, and tell me about it".
Mystery tried to figure out what was the appropriate way to speak when one is deeply asleep, so she answered in a slow and deep voice: "Iiiiit waaaas wheeeen Iiiiii waaaaas 145 yeeeeaaaars oooooold. Iiiiii waaaaaas cooooonceeeentraaaaaiiiiitiiiiing on sooooomethiiiiing eeeeelse aaaand spiiiiiilled theeee coooooffeeeee."
The therapist didn't know how to continue as he thought that Mystery had a much worse problem that to spill coffee. He thought a moment and said then.....
(By the way, I'm seriously thinking about making a new thread for our adventures )

"Imagine your self standing on a beach. The water is very calm, the sun is shining bright. Tell me what you see."
Puzzled by the complete change of topic, Mistery tried to simulate a beach with calm water on a sunny day. It accured to her that if she did that maybe this was part of the ritual and if she could do it properly it would trigger her senses to let go of her coffee problem. Nothing happened. She tried again, but the vision of the beach was very uninteresting so she added some bits and pieces to make it look more plausible. So she said:
"Weeeeell, my spaaaaaaceship is noooooot faaaaar away and my clooooones are prepaaaaaaring cats for diiiiiinner. Theeeeeere is a little boat oooooon the beach wiiiiiiich Lillipuuuuuuutt and I caught aaaaaan oooooold boot and a fiiiiiiiiish in".
The therapist seemed very quiet.
"And where is the coffee?", the therapist finally said.

"Theeee coooooffeeee waaaaaaas spiiiiiiilled ooooon theeeee caaaaats, uuunfoooortuuuunaaaateeelyyyy.", replied Mystery.
The therapist rolled his eyes, he has never had such a serious case in his whole carrier. So he said: "Concentrate on my voice: You have no spaceship and you are not eating cats. Now repeat that."
Mystery thought that this was just a concentration and memory exercize and repeated: "Youuuuuu haaaaave noooo spaaaaaceshiiiiip aaand youuuuu aaaare noooot eeeeatiiiing caaaats."
The therapist looked very despaired, and thought about the next step. Maybe he should call a colleague to help him out with this case?

Of course there was a finacial issue to consider, not to mention that this case might give him a recognition in the world of psychiatry if he was able to document the progress properly. He carefully studied the patient, who in every other aspect seemed like a genuine and normal person.
"Cocentrate on my voice", he said, "I am going to count to three and you are again on the beach, but this time there are no cats, no clones, no boat and no space ship. You are sitting on the beach calmly sipping coffee. One...." All this talk of coffee had made Mistery feel slightly thirsty. "....two...." And sort of peckish too. "...three", the therapist finally said, while a cat miaowed somewhere in the house.
