Take back the night from them

My namesake tagged on a South Park pinball machine somewhere in Atlanta, Georgia. Photo by Steve Znavor. Steve is the drummer for The Firebird Band; they're on tour now and I'd go check them if I were you, but I'm not, so you'll have to make it on your own.
I'm in a really bad place in terms of quality coffee consumption. See kids, I'm holed up with my parents for a couple weeks in between here and there. Currently I'm without my own coffeemaker and the swill Mom and Dad drink is unacceptable. So I've tried a few other options that lie between me and the New Lenox Metra train station:
Option one: BP's "Wild Bean" coffee selection. I don't care what name you give it, this is coffee from the inside of a gas station. It's not wild at all. In fact it's the opposite, tasteless and extremely unwild.
Option two: Inside the train station lies Java Junction. Clever, and convenient! Now Java Junction has espresso drinks on their menu which led me to believe that their coffee would be higher quality. Nope, watered-down swill.
I'm in need of some seriously strong and tasty French pressed brew. This will have to wait until the weekend, as I'm beyond my coffee section of the morning, unsatisfied.

I had a really fabulous latte this morning, and I'm feeling fantastic! Just to rub it in a little.
man if you're gonna hit up those kinds of places why don't you just go to a starbucks or something?

I don't drink coffee so I don't know but surely it's got to be better than something you get at a BP.
