I am suffering from a bad cold and told Palm Tree Fan that the "coughiness" was worse than the "sniffliness." She thought those were fantastic words, and I pointed out that while "coughiness" and "coffeeness" would be pronounced the same, they are very different concepts. She thought that should be the topic of today's blog post, so here it is:
Coughiness: the higher the degree, the worse you feel.
Coffeeness: the higher the degree, the better you feel.
Coughiness: best cure is cough syrup.
Coffeeness: no cure available; none necessary.
Coughiness: blame it on a bug.
Coffeeness: blame it on the beans!
Coughiness: eucalyptus helps make it better.
Coffeeness: other than optional cream, no adulteration necessary.
Coughiness: warm tea sometimes helps.
Coffeeness: who needs tea when you have coffee??
Coughiness: can keep you awake at night.
Coffeeness: it can too.
