Coffee Break

I am revising a manual, it would not save the world, but it could probably restore a life, but the recommended draft revision is overwhelming, I could not seem to construct a proper sentence, so I stand and go to the pantry, check myself on the mirror, made myself a coffee, all the while fixing my gaze on the mirror, what a vain, no? A co-worker joined in and as we mixed our coffee creamer and sugar in the cup, he asked the most random question, "Are you happy with what you are doing?" And I could have cried hot tears and pour it in on my coffee, what would it taste like, I wondered, would it be scalding, tasteless, baseless, bitter, bitter with a pint of saltiness? What would happiness taste like when poured over coffee
