Everyone started ranting at me to post so I guess I'll work on being more diligent with it! I have way too much spare time after all...

So I'm working at Esquires, the coffee shop by the clinic in town and so far it's been great. It's more of my environment - I only work with one other person, I get lots of time on the espresso machine, and the dirty work isn't really that bad at all. Cutting and wrapping sticky caramel squares is seriously the most difficult thing I have to do, aside from dealing with the annoying antics of a certain co-worker of mine that I get stuck with because the three other girls have absolutely refused to work with her and I pretty much can get along with anybody. I'm pretty darn talented at making drinks ;D

Speaking of which, I've been raving about getting a home espresso machine since I started working with coffee. So mom went to the thrift store and found a used one and brought it home for me! Ha, it was pretty funny the first time I tried it. The espresso shot everywhere, somehow, and I completely wasn't expecting it. Mom ended up going online to look for a manual for it. We found one and managed to get the espresso part to work but the steam wand had no pressure so... it's going back to the thrift store today. Apparently there's another one there so I'm gonna try that :)

Demi; I've fallen in love with tea lattes. We have a "Bombay Fog" at work which is basically a London Fog only with chai tea instead of Earl Grey! It's wonderful. The best part is that I can make them properly at home too. I figured out how to steam milk on the stove, and got some vanilla syrup so it's pretty easy. If you ever visit me I'll treat you to as many as you could want!

Primo; I loved your last post haha! Kids and stories of kids always make me smile. I really want to visit you. I imagine you've heard of C and her latest boyfriend? You should have been here over thanksgiving to tease her with me!

Fae; I've finished your letter and a card with a grad picture in it. I have a poem to write and a list of my favorite musical artists and songs to get together before I mail it to you though ;)

Ashley; I love you, your CD is awesome. DO NOT BEND! DO NOT BEND! (please)


Oh wow this guy is so cute. And this video is so not country :S
