the bucks

edit: no salsa dancing tonight. just relaxing at home with a fire and wine. great combo.


People LOVE starbucks. I realized today (for like the 1700th time) that I know so many people that come in my store. I know their name, I know their drink, I ask them things about life etc. It's cool. kinda weird bartender esk, but I like it. :)

It's cold and snowy again today and I don't have any where to go. I've turned the heat up and plan on settling in with a blanket, a glass of wine (yes I realize it's only 3:30, but still)and a little Joaquin Pheonix film fest. (I saw him on Oprah yesterday with Reese Witherspoon. love them!) I think I'll start with Ladder 49. what a great plan.

Then I hope to go salsa dancing with Stephanie and Ben Fife. I learned a couple of weeks ago, while at a party, that I really like it, no matter how bad I might be.

I fly into Cali on Wednesday night. I'm really looking forward to it. and my dad will be stoked that I'm coming home with like 8 pounds of coffee for him and my mom and grandpa. :) I'm still not sure how I'm going to get all of my crap home. sure don't want to bring 2 suitcases home but I may not have a choice. Maybe I'll pack all of my presents in a box and seal it and have it go with me as a checked plane item. We'll see.

I'm so glad to be done with school for the quarter and have no responsibilities except work. i miss that about life before culinary school.
