Greetings from Geology Class. Again. I need a rubber mug.

Last Monday I went to Goodwill because I realized that I didn't bring any mugs to college. If you knew how much coffee I drink, you would know that this was a really big problem. At Goodwill, I got the best, and only 2 mugs I've ever purchased with my own money and owned. I had actually been planning on blogging about how much I loved my mug. (You can see where this is going.)

My mug and I had coffee together every morning. It was large and could fit as much coffee and cream in the mug as I desired.

My favorite thing about the mug was that it was also large enough to serve as a bowl. Every morning I had my gluten free cereal that doesn't taste good at all out of my mug.

On Saturday I was trying to  sneak a couch into my room that I borrowed without asking from the floor lounge. The couch was too big to get through the door so we had to put it on it's side. Also, my desk is right behind the door, so we had to move my desk over to get the door all the way open. My mugs were on the desk, and when we started to move it, they fell, bounced, no problem. Right back on the desk they went. They fell again, breaking a little bit, but back on the desk they went, because I am a college student who uses her fully functioning brain.They were still fixable with a little handy dandy super glue. They fell three more times, went back on the desk until they were in too many pieces to pick up.

Yesterday I went to goodwill to get some more mugs. I got two. One was a Christmas mug that looked more like a bowl and the other was just really cute. I was starting to love them the way I loved my old mugs. My roommate texted me while I was in Greek, not even 24 hours after buying the mugs, to tell me that my mugs fell off my desk and broke. 7 days in, 4 mugs broken. I'm now on a search for some rubber/plastic mugs that I can leave on the floor and not break.
