Dear Michele,
Finally, you have become the person you once silently judged during the countless hours spent waiting in line at Starbucks
A few minutes ago, you showed up at the Starbucks on Madison Avenue and 42nd Street for a 3 PM caffeine fix. There, you ordered one Iced Grande Sugar Free Vanilla Triple Skim Latte.
We’re not sure there are more wordy orders.
Sincerely,
The Kettle.
I am silently judging you.
but i don’t even know what half of your order means.
I am one of those people who refuse to use the stupid size names and get chastised by the starbucks mafia for not ordering a
large-o or whatever its is called.
i’m not a big coffee drinker obviously. or a jitterbug.

I am silently judging you for even going to Starfucks, let alone the drink!!
Good thing you’re chock-a-block with other good qualities!

Oh, wait a minute. I must not have made myself super clear. I didn’t actually ORDER it this way. I ordered it more like this:
“Hi, do you do sugar free lattes? If so, can I have a medium? Also, I want skim milk and how many shots are in there? If there are only two, I want three. Iced, please.”
And the barista said it back to me using the above Starbucks Translation. I can’t even say my husband’s name most of the time, let alone get that shit out.

You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin’ starts
Jitterbug into my brain
Goes a bang-bang-bang ‘til my feet do the same
But something’s bugging you
Something ain’t right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleepin’ in my bed
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.
Wake me up before you go-go
Don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don’t want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
‘Cause I’m not plannin’ on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah)
You take the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same
‘Cause you’re my lady, I’m your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on, baby, let’s not fight
We’ll go dancing, everything will be all right
Wake me up before you go-go
Don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don’t want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
‘Cause I’m not plannin’’ on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah, baby)
Jitterbug

OK. OK. you can flog me for it. Oh, and judge me. I’m such a hypocrite. I refuse McDonalds and Wal Mart, yet I drink coffee from Starbucks.

I already implied that you have been forgiven!! I have been know to enter an old navy once or twice. Remember when they put that Starfucks on the coner of Columbia and Calvert? Didn’t it make you want to cry a little?

Sian, I gotta admit, I was pretty bummed when that happen. I was worried for Tryst. But then again, getting to that damn corner was nearly impossible. Unless, of course, you spent a lot of time down at a certain pool hall… which, we did. Did you EVER go into the one on P street? Hmmmm?

I was trying to be mihow’s soundtrack.
After she got the über gay named “Iced Grande Sugar Free Vanilla Triple Skim Latte”, Wham! started playing—and then she was supposed to have a gasoline fight with three of her best friends that would end up in a freak accident claiming three of their lives.

The Starfucks? No!! There was coffee available inside my place of employment. I have been inside a Starfucks MAYBE twice in the last couple of years. I only go in extreme situations, like waking up in strange places with nothing local in sight and no time to look before hitting the road.In fact, Vu would stop in the S.F on Columbia from time to time to buy a newspaper. I would wait outside. He found it really annoying but too bad, he’s the one who married me.

Are those allowed on the diet? I always here that supense inducing music Dunh,Dunh,DUNH! When I read the phrase “the diet”. Do we get to see some pictures of you. I’m guessing you are the size of a flea by now. This based on the number of pounds you say you have lost.
