Shakespeare had his cannabis...

(more about that)...and I have, as my occasional source of inspiration, Theobroma cacao, Greek for “Fruit of Gods", a.k.a. chocolate.

At 5:15 AM this morning -- a mere 5 hours after retiring from an invigorating evening of imbibing (with my fellow Wednesday Whine & Diners) in copious amounts of chocolate, infused in a mousse cake from Schubert's Bakery; and then an extra thick serving of hot cocoa from Blue Danube Cafe -- my eyes flipped open and darted about the room in the quiet darkness. My mind and heart were racing, my adrenaline pumping,...I was experiencing a Dawn Phenomenon. Tossing and turning with all my might, I couldn't power down, and sprung out of bed to face the dim still-awakening day. Scribbling frenetically in the shadows, I downloaded the dozens of ideas from my head into my journal and on scraps of paper lying around.

Then I went swimming.
