how i love thee, let me count the ways ...
- the music spilling out of the speakers pleasantly into my ears ("love and happiness, ain't nothing wrong")
- the sounds of the diverse coffees being blended by the baristas.
- intellectual conversations and debates on the economy
- women outside plucking their eyebrows with no shame in their game
- friendly employees checking on me
- beautifully displayed artwork demanding coffee
- INTERNET FOR FREE
- women in spandex inspiring me to maybe exercise, (i said maybe)
- smashing smiles from all around, patiently waiting for their fix
- employees walking in with cokes
- no children running around, high on caffeine
- no questions of "when are we going to leave?"
- no one talking to me at ALL!
- my java chip frappachino gliding down the wasteland of my body to inspire me to get up off my ass
yes, Starbucks, i thank you for the wonderful morning, now i begin my day feeling rejuvenated and full of hope that the world isn't that bad, now off to Wal-mart.
o well there goes my hope and maybe even my rejuvenation.
Oh, Shell! I am so jealous. I wish I could start my day with a Starbucks. Unfortunately, we don't have a Starbucks. tho the local Bean Tree makes a mighty good mocha latte without the price of Starbucks. That frappuccino sure looks delish. Next time drink one of those for me.
