Good morning to me!

This morning was a little hilarious. I woke up a little late. I was SO tired and didn't sleep very well last night so when the alarm went off I wasn't ready! Well, I actually got around pretty quick and as I was leaving I couldn't find my keys! Luckily Vin hadn't left yet because I left them in our other car.

My goal was to be to work no later than 9:15. I was really excited because I had enough change in the bottom of my purse to get a chai at Starbucks this morning. Off I go, driving behind every slow driver in Salem this morning. Then the city bus decides to stop and pull over to the side. I am behind him and proceed to curve around him slightly. It was very obvious what I was doing as I slowed down and began my trip around the bus very carefully letting the car in the lane next to me know I would be creeping a little into their lane. They started to speed up! What in the world? Why on earth would you try to get in front of a car who is obviously going around a bus? Well this man was at least 1000 years old and couldn't even see over the steering wheel. He probably couldn't even see me. We came about .05 of an inch from smashing into each other. Sheesh! Up ahead I see my stop. I pull into Starbucks drive thru and notice the horribly long line. I park and decide to go in because at this point I am not meeting my goal of arriving at work by 9:15. I go in and there was only one person in line. This woman had no idea what she was doing. Her first order was a tall chai with half the chai. Well, it took her about 5 minutes to try and explain what she wanted and the poor barista was so confused. Finally the barista caught on. Well, then she decides she likes this mug for sale. She wants to buy it and it has no price tag. She searches for another but it was the last one. Here comes the price check. 3-4 minutes later the mug is being rang up along with her drink. Finally! My turn! Nope! Her cell phone rings. Bla bla bla… she orders another drink. This one is a four pump grande Americano no water. HAHA!! Once again the barista has a dazed look in her eye's. She asks the woman, "Four pumps of what ma'am?"
The woman replies, "Four pumps of espresso and no water on ice."
"We don't do pumps of espresso, we do shots…" Say's the Barista.
"Oh yes of course! That's what I want..." Say's old woman.
Oh my word! I am dying. This is not the end. She wants a Starbucks card now. Ten minutes later she moves along and it's my turn! I would have been better off in the drive thru. By the time I got out to my car it was a whole new batch of cars! On my way out the door, rushing as fast as I can, a woman and her crying child are making their way inside. The Mother is holding open the door for her little girl. I am waiting for her to come in but she is crying her eye's out throwing a huge tantrum and refuses to come into the store. The mom is pleading with her. She is right in the door way crying, screaming. I'm trying to get through--Mom still pleading with her. Kesha is still standing waiting. A couple other people are waiting.

Can I say Seinfeld moment!

I arrived at work exactly at 9:15, I think The Lord paused time for me.

I just love Thursday mornings!

:-) Kesh~
