Coffee Houses

coffee houses

I have never really understood the need to hang out in coffee houses. Granted, I would rather be in one of them if I had the choice between that and a bar, but I still dont understand it.

I am a coffee drinker, and I know I drink more than the average person, and I guess that makes my dislike of coffee houses even more strange. I guess the thought of sitting around with people for the sole purpose of talking over coffee is a good one, but I would much rather do that at home.

Coffee and good conversation go together, and I guess that is the appeal of the coffee houses. I dont think people who go there are weird, I just dont think it is for me. This was a popular thing to do on the television show Friends, and perhaps that is why it became so popular. Im not really sure. It would certainly be better than a bar if you were looking to meet new people, but I dont think I would go out of my way to visit one for any amount of time longer than I would need to order my coffee and leave.

Coffee houses are not quite as popular as they once were, but people are still buying coffee in them. There is no doubt that you can get some of the best cups of coffee you will ever have from these places, but people are spending less time inside. I think Americans are too busy, and worry about work too much, so perhaps we should go back to sitting around in coffee houses more often. Its not for me, but I think its great for those who like to do it. We need to find more ways to relax.

You can still find many great coffee houses in your community. One great place I have found them has been in bookstores. This actually makes sense to me. You might go into the book store to get a great book, and then wander over to sit down and enjoy that book with a good cup of coffee. Perhaps I should try that sometime, and learn to enjoy the coffee houses. I love my daughter dearly, but there are times when I need some peace. Perhaps that is my answer. I know my husband wont mind, but I think he might keel over from the shock of me wanting to do something for myself.
