Uhm, thank you for that hot tip?

[Yesterday]

I'm at the bus stop taking the last couple drinks of my peppermint white chocolate mocha (fucking delicious by the by) and toss it in the garbage before standing elsewhere at the bus stop. A couple minutes pass and a boy (university aged or thereabouts) steps out of the actual bus shelter where he had been sitting and asks if I had just been drinking coffee. I say yes and he asks where I got it from. I point across the street to the Safeway and tell him Starbucks (there's one inside the Safeway). Then he tells me that A&W - which is just down the street a bit - has a nice dark roast for a mere $1.47 (or some price - I can't really remember). I told him I'd been drinking a mocha and he said that they didn't have those and then asked what a mocha was, 'Chocolate in your coffee?' (How do you not know a mocha?) I tell him yes and then we discuss the beauty of chocolate and how everyone loves it except for diabetics and people with certain allergies.

It was kind of odd. And I still really hate small talk. But mostly this post is about my new default icon. :)

See, I can't drink coffee. Gives me migraines. And good GOD do I miss lattes. And white chocolate mochas. And oh GOD the peppermint in the winter.... *swoons* I love me some chai, though. One o' those in the morning wakes my ass up and it is SO TASTY. *craves*

.....and this is mostly a comment about your new default icon. Hai, I want some. *grabby hands*

I love them at Cons. I LOVE THEM AT CONS. They are so adorable. *dies*

Most of the time I drink decaf coffee because yeah. Maybe you could get the mochas without the coffee? Just steamed milk and the flavour shots? *shrugs*

I sort of wish I had seen them at the Con (and more importantly met fangirls) but alas I don't have that thing they call money

Oooh, not a bad idea, flavor but no coffee. I'm okay with that. See, I can't even have decaf-- even that gives me migraines. Nnnngh.

I just wish we had better video. WithOUT the screaming fangirls. I want to hear their adorable responses, dammit.
