A Drabble (exactly 100 words) about the process of waking up.

I open my eyes. Yawn. Stretch. So far, so good. Now the requirements for starting each day: a good night's sleep (done), a decent temperature outside (I'll check later), and, most important... "hey! Where's my coffee?"

How can I be expected to ....oh, yeah. Must have left it on the kitchen counter. I was pretty sleepy last night. I'd better drag myself down there and check.

So far, so good. I can grope my way down the stairs pretty easily after twenty years in this house.
Reach the bottom, turn left, head for the kitchen, and... "hey! Where's my coffee?"
