Visiting my sister in Michigan right now, i brought her a bunch do stumptown as a present. Nothing better.
I get a $1 large coffee from McDonald's with 3 creams/2 sugars and then sit in traffic for 45 minutes enjoying it in the morning while listening to Cowherd or Patrick on the way north.
I even have installed a shitter in my car seat, so I can sleep in 20 minutes later and enjoy the entire commute.
