  • Item: Friendiest is student-teaching sixth and seventh grade home ec; they are doing a unit on childcare and she asked me to be a guest lecturer. I did one this morning and am going back for the afternoon. I do not know how she does it. It's creepy the way they all, like, actually listen to you! And raise their hands politely and stuff! Most disconcerting thing EVER!!

    They really liked the fingerpainting, though; and I adore how much fun it was to get them to admit they were into "The Little Old Lady Who Wasn't Afraid of Anything."

    This afternoon, I will do better! I will not ramble so much and also, I will remember to tell them the number one thing I want them to know. *facepalm*


  • Item: Somebody ran over a squirrel in the middle of my street. Its body is squashed flat but its tail is still standing straight up like a little pine tree. It is the saddest thing ever.


  • Item: I think Starbucks is cheating me out of my flavoring. Aside from that, though, I love how competent the baristas here are; they listen to me! And know what they are doing! It's AWESOME!!!

  • Item: I hate the HOME inventory. That is all.

  • Item: all you out there complaining that your stories are too long, I have a big old raspberry for you. But it's an affectionate one! I'm excited for your stories, it's just that my stories have size envy.

I think I just need to ask for more pumps, really...I'm glad to pay for them! I'm trying to find a new flavour combination because our place up here doesn't carry almond, and it's a slow process to perfection.

I drink plain steamed milk with flavoring; I can't stand the taste of coffee. One of the reasons I adore my crew here is because they can understand that concept. Without having to go through the drive-thru three times. It's awesome.

My favorite steamer (officialy it's called a syrup creme, but most people call them steamers so I just roll with it) is white mocha with a little bit of hazelnut. Super delish.

My FAVORITE favorite is pumpkin spice with caramel, but most of the year I go with raspberry and almond. ^_^

Seriously, discontinuing almond was one of the saddest things Starbucks ever did.

Oh, they discontinued it? DAMN. I was hoping it was just that my little backwater college town didn't stock it.

They got rid of it completely! It's terrible. My absolute favorite drink used to be an almond americano, and now? Toffee nut is okay, but it's just not almond, man.

Um? They discontinued almond syrup? That seems weird, I mean, isn't almond a staple flavor? It's hardly exotic. It seems like that would be akin to getting rid of raspberry or caramel. Not that I know anything about Starbucks syrup, seeing as the nearest one is a forty minute drive from my house, but it does seem bizarre.

*re-lurks*
