The new coffeemaker is in da house -- George just got home with it about an hour and a half ago. It came with a cute little orange card that said "Please Wash Me with warm, sudsy water before using!", so we did, and lo and behold it actually makes a decent pot of coffee.

However, compared to our old coffeemaker, it appears... well, a bit fragile and ricketty. It has a lot more moving parts, ie: more stuff to break. The old coffee maker was a solid state marvel. If this new one lasts a year I'll be pleasantly surprised. But for $34.99, what more can you really expect?

I'm managing to get work done, albeit slowly. But I've been absolutely horrible as far as my eating schedule -- eating too much and at intervals shorter than four hours. When I'm in the lighter stages of depression eating brngs comfort, so... yeah. *embarassed shrug* I'm going to try to exercise around 8 pm but I'll have to see how my body feels.

Back to work, and trying not to think of the fresh juicy apples in the kitchen fruit bowl.

Actually, if it's anything like the one I have:

It will last a long time. Sturdiness isn't next to godliness with coffee makers, it seems. I had a B&D very similar to yours for a few years.
39.99 is a good deal for a coffee maker, but not unheard of. B&D tends to be reasonably priced and a good product. (i sound like an info mercial)..

Ours is a twelve cup, really good, and i only paid about the same. not on sale.

Sorry, here comes my hondler (bargainer) instinct again. Ahem.
