I was inspired to start a blog by one of my friends...who became my best friend...and then became my husband! I sometimes write poetry and thought that it would look nicer on a blog than scribbled in my notebook. Eh-HEM...And more about me....I love God and try my best to love those around me. It isn't always easy, but hey! God knows, right?

Starbucks

You know what's funny?...but not hilarious, just funny.......I work at Starbucks! HAHAHAHA!!! Isn't that a good one? Okay....Serious now. Yes, I get to wear a cool green apron. Honestly, I've never cared for the way green looks on me--but I always like it on others (I think I'm too white skinned with blonde hair--green washes me out). I wish I could wear it, but, now that I'm a barista, I get to wear it every day, giving me an excuse to look bad in it. ..

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a coffee loser. I make reallly funny faces when I try super strong coffees during coffee tastings, trying desperately to impress my boss, tellling her all the neat flavors I'm picking out, (and showing her and you all how impressive I am spelling the word "telling" with 3 "L's." So cool!). uh-hem. LooooooooseerrrRRRrR!

So, obviously, my job is very stressful. Many nights I take my work troubles home with me. Okay. No I don't. But wouldn't it be weird if I did? Maybe if I was in management or something. So ya, I love my job and the people I work with. But I don't love strong coffee flavors. And that's okay. Maybe I'll grow into it. ONly, now that I work in coffee, I don't actually drink it that much. When I lived in the house with 6 other girls before I got married, every morning I craved our "fancy" Folgers coffee with Carnation's Chocolate Rasberry Creamer in it! But I put a lot of creamer in it cuz my roomies LOVED super strong coffee taste. Except Joy. She hates coffee. And so does my husband, so I really don't make coffee at home. And when I do make coffee, I end up drinking 4 1/2 sips, realize my cravings died after I got married and started working at Starbucks...and then I throw the rest of the pot of coffe out. Too bad.

At least I'm not addicted, right? Strange thing: My doctor actually told me to drink at least one cup of coffee a day, cuz pratically every day I have a migraine....super headaches that really, REALLY suck and last for weeks-->the kind that wouldn't even take noticed if I took a full bottle of migraine medicine. But God's helping/healing me of that. In fact, today I only took one pill and it's gone! YAY!

So, just to let you know that if you're lost, it's okay, cuz I don't think I actually even have a point.

Peace and coffee to you all!

Oh, and I lied about the category of this blog! Oh, I'm soo sneaky!!
