Trader Joe's Five Country Espresso Blend is my favorite coffee. At least one cup of that amazingness is enough to wake me up (I don't use milk/sugar/etc either - it's an insult to the coffee IMO).
Ha! I had Turkish coffee once. Once. That shit was more brutal than Cuban coffee.
It is pretty strong! And I used to drink at least one cup (similar to espresso cup in size, not a big cup) a day when I lived there. I miss it sometimes to be honest. I can find it here too, but I'm just too lazy to look for it.
I finally have two days off after a 19-day stretch of work, and my evening so far has been literally nothing but laying on the couch, smoking, listening to music, napping, and eating buffalo chicken. It's been wonderful. It's been a while since I /just/ listened to music without having another activity on my mind like driving or cooking or whatever. It's good. I like music.

Good for you. We all need to carve out time where we just listen to music.
Tonight, I will be seeing one of my closest friends for the first time in person in over a year and I am very excited! It's strange how I get to see my close friends so rarely for the last few years. Life is interesting.

I leave for Europe on Tuesday. I’m super excited since it’s my first time out of the country. The only people that understand how serious I am about only wanting to eat and drink wine are the bride and groom.
Someone slap me across the face if I ever decide to plan another European trip with a group of fucking engineers though. If I have to go over another spreadsheet, I might die before I even make it on the plane.

ha, i'm an accountant and always do all the logistics for any group trips. concert tickets, hotel, gas, timing, etc. i always send my friends a spreadsheet with all the costs broken down by person. i don't think anyone ever looks at it, because they always respond "just tell me how much money to give you."
I didn't know the Blue Lives Matter folks made ties, but someone here thought it was appropriate to wear one of those at a wedding.
Also, you lose the right to make claim on being genetically superior to other races when you weigh in the ballpark of 400 lbs. and break a sweat walking up four stairs.

I wish I was making this up, but in “my city is shit” news of the day, just went outside and someone ransacked my car. They didn’t take anything but some weed and my work hat(??) but everything was everywhere. I should’ve locked it, but still.
But honestly, why my hat? They even left a really nice glass pipe I had in the center console, by took the hat. Fuck.
That blows. However, what's interesting to me is that the cost of living there is actually affordable. Mid 100's median home price? That's unheard of outside of Trumpland, America. Also, it looks like you have easy access to lots and lots and lots of cool places. But in the end, there's bad with the good.
Lol Someone stole the plates off one of our cars last night. Waiting for the police to come to make a report.
I think I invited bad luck on myself with my previous posts. Holy fucking shit.

Not so much a random thought, but a random request for some advice.
My first best friend and I were tight all the way through high school. Then, college hit and we drifted a bit. He was always a bit hard to get in touch with over the years, but I knew he'd usually reply to a Steam or Discord message. Then, the last few years: radio silence. No matter how I messaged or called him, he wouldn't get back to me. I moved back to my home city this time last year, and I tried reaching out again to reconnect. Nothing.
I just learned of a rumor that potentially explains his silence: a friend brother's told my brother my OG best friend is transitioning from a man to a woman. I was shocked, but looking back on our lives together, there were some signs. My fiancee said his silence could be his way of erasing his past life, which makes sense. It just breaks my heart my OG best friend would cast me out like that. I wish I could tell her (or still him?) they're still one of my best friends and I love them.
I'm still friends with one of their friends they apparently still hang out, and have messaged their mom recently. Should I attempt to keep reaching out, or should I let it go? The latter sounds really painful.

You should address this person as a woman, regardless of the stage of their transition. GLAAD has tons of great information if you ever have questions about proper terminology (or really anything else) regarding LGBTQ people. Here's their trans ally guide
If you've reached out to them multiple times and they've ignored you then you should drop it. It's sad to hear a great friend doesn't have room for you in their lives right now. But if you've heard from reliable sources that they are healthy and stable but won't respond to you then you should let them be, regardless of their gender identity.
I kinda agree with Goldbees but not completely. I'm sure it might be easy for her to basically cut everyone off and start over when making such a large life transition like that, but on the other hand if you're someone who's been best friends with her for basically your whole life I'm not sure if it's so clear.
I'd maybe talk to your mutual friend who is still in contact and see what they're feelings about it are since they would have the best idea of what her current mind state is.

I also don't agree with this. You should just address them by the pronouns they prefer. I definitely have known people that weren't comfortable with changing their pronouns yet at the beginning of their transitions.
Maybe a message just saying that you understand that they are going through some stuff and that you'll respect their wanting to move on but that you'll always be there if they need you?
Through the years I have filled many patients prescriptions that are transitioning. I follow them through their journey. I am always excited when I get their prescription with their new name.
Fozzie Bear maybe just let her know through your mutual friend that you are receptive to renewing your friendship. She may just be scared to approach you for fear of your reaction. If you still get no response, then let it be and know you tried.
