Starbuck-naked! So apparently Playboy will be doing a spread (why do they call it that? that's just wrong.) called "The Women of Starbucks" in a couple months. As if we don't have enough comments from the menfolks that inspire semi-polite, clenched-teeth smiles from the likes of us. (everything from the ordinary- "You two are the cutest girls who work here!" to the downright nasty- "Hey! I didn't recognize you with your clothes on!" comes across our counter... and not a laugher in the bunch yet. All groaners. Sigh.) Now we have to add "Hey! You should do that Playboy spread!" followed, of course, in a few months by, "Wasn't that you in the Playboy spread?" Hehehehe.... dirty Renee is now thinking of some hilarious poses. Involving milk pitchers mostly. Talk about steamed milk! Hahahahaha! Ha! Haha! Oh... I...kill me.
I'm so anticlimactic. But you'll have to read to the end of this to find out why! HA! HA! So last week Jessa and I went to a friend's league hockey game. Smeeeellll the ice! Smell it! It smells... cold. Anyway, we spent a good part of the second period in the vending machine room, and following is why... but first, I must explain this vending machine room. It had like 30 machines in it if there was one. Sold everything from candy to chips to coffee to hot dogs and sandwiches. You could pick a worse place to be stranded. As long as your change supply held out. But I digress. So being the hungry girl that I am, I spy some Salsa doritos in the case. Let me tell you, they were sweet and ripe for the picking! So I put the change in and they fall... only to be stranded sideways on the ledge of the machine! #%$&! Jessa's and my attempts to bang them down into the drop were unsuccessful, as the poor bag was still left straddling the gulf. So we thought, maybe if we buy something right above it, it will fall on top of the bag and they'll fall in the slot. And that is how the Kit Kat bar ended up on top of the doritos. Still straddling. It took three teenage boys shaking the machine within an inch of its life to bang enough sense into the doritos to make them fall. And... so I got my chips. That's my story.
News. We moved the bunny inside. He smells like crap!
Five Things I Smile About Just Because:
1. the bunny (who, although smelly, is still ridiculously goodlooking)
2. Denny's Buffalo Chicken Strips
3. talking to Sam online
4. redheaded little kids
5. "warm salmon with almonds"
