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

Which is awesomesauce.

Also, chocolate is beautiful.

[douxquemiel.livejournal.com]

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.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I kind of love it.

Chocolate makes the world go 'round.

Sound like a good conversation... Or something like that.
To be honest, I wasn't sure what a mocha was either before now. Then again, I don't drink coffee at all so I never needed to know anyhthing about it.

Eee *grabby hands* They're so in love.

OT: Thank you for saying you wanted Jensen to be a douche. When I read stuff like
"Jensen was kind of a dick, I have to say it, but we still love him"
I just laugh and think of you instead of getting annoyed at the poster. It makes the whole wank thing about Jensen being a bitch way easier to handle.

I don't know a mocha! Except now I do, I guess. Thanks for teaching me! Now if people ask me about it I can tell them that I know it's chocolate in your coffee. ;D I don't do coffee of any kind. Even the smell of the stuff gives me a headache. With most coffee shops it's not too bad, and I can tolerate being inside them for a little while. But Starbucks, nope, if I set one foot inside (or if someone is sitting near me drinking Starbucks) I'll be in intense head-splitting pain for at least 20 minutes even after I get away. I learned the other day from my friend who's a barrista that it's because Starbucks uses a bunch of different types of beans in their coffee, and since different beans have different roasts but they don't want to serve undercooked beans or whatever, they just roast EVERYTHING the maximum amount and therefore there are a lot of beans that are burnt/overroasted. The secret to why Starbucks hates me! Aha. But that's probably why Starbucks coffee has a distinct taste that appeals to some people, also, I'd guess.

It was okay, but kind of odd and I'm just really not used to talking to stranger or you know, people at all.

So so inlove.

!!!! Wait. What? Where was someone saying that Jensen was kind of a dick?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Hmm, that is interesting. I've never had any plain Starbucks coffee but I've heard it's strong. And I don't really do strong coffee.

[pippilottah.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean, I get all freaked out if strangers talk to me, heh.

Um, I don't really remember. A friend of mine who loves Danneel quoted some bitchy posts and that thing was in there. It was mostly about how horrible Danneel acted and how she wasn't right for Jensen and then there was something about her wearing such awful clothes, it couldn't even be described with words. So maybe it was Danneel in that pic you posted yesterday. Except for it not looking anything like her...

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

*punches that person* I don't know if I like Danneel yet, I don't know much about her but from that - it sounds like they're just being a cunt because she's dating Jensen. And that ain't right. The boy needs his beard!

Haha. Yeah, I think Danneel's got a bit more fashion sense than that. I hope, anyway.

[pippilottah.livejournal.com]

Yeah, some of it was kind of harsh. But I focused on the part where she called Jensen a diva :D

You remember a small clip from the event where Jared thought he was a monkey with him, Jensen, Danneel and Sandy? Danneel wore some sort of weird headband thing that I didn't like so I can imagine her wearing some not all that pretty clothes but still..

[rejeneration.livejournal.com]

I loathe small talk. But I am 122% enamored with spontaneous conversations with strangers.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I like conversations between other strangers - where I can just stand and listen. *nods*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I sort of remember that clip, but not the headband. And okay, maybe Danneel would wear some questionable clothing but I still think she'd be able to pull it off.

[devidarkwolf.livejournal.com]

SCREAMS, ICON. But lmao at random conversations. They make me uneasy sometimes.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

They're so freakin' in love with one another.

*nods* I think they make me uneasy the majority of the time.

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

Everyone I spoke with that saw her said she looked awesome and pretty.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

She's probably one of those annoying people who look good even when they don't look good, yanno?

[rejeneration.livejournal.com]

I'm such a people watcher, I can totally feel you on this one. -smiling-

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

I think Sandy is one of those. She rolls out of bed with perfectly shiny hair. *glares*

Mmm...peppermint mocha. My fav Starbucks season. I didn't even get out my full order the other day when I saw the peppermint was in. I just pretty much squealed "GIMME PEPPERMINT" into the drive-thru speaker.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

*glares with you*

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Ahaha. This was my first peppermint white chocolate mocha (I'd just had the normal before) and holy hell. I want more. Lots more.

Sorry, checking out some LJs (and don't have one of my own) but thought I'd comment when I saw this, hope that's okay. Honestly, I'm not sure of the impression I got from Danneel at the con. When I saw her she was sitting in a chair to the side of the autograph tables. Whenever I looked at her she was kind of slouching and looked really bored/tired. I can't really blame her though because Sandy got lots of attention but Danneel wasn't really getting any people going up to her like Sandy was so she really didn't have anything to do since both boys were sitting further away and signing things/talking to fans. Plus everything started so early and the concert the night before went pretty late so I can see the being tired part. While I was still in line it looked like Danneel was getting ready to leave for the airport earlier than Jensen, Jared, and Sandy were (maybe she was going on a separate flight to somewhere else). On her way out of the room she gave Jared a kiss on the cheek and he was super sweet to her saying he'd talk to her later. So honestly, even though I was a little put off by the bored look on her face, Jared seemed to genuinely like her and given the honest way he came off from the small amount of time I got to talk to him, that was pretty much enough for me. I didn't actually get to see her interact with Jensen though so I have no idea what they're like together. He wasn't at the table when she said goodbye to Jared which is why I'd seen so much because the line was stopped for awhile since Jensen was out of the room getting something and she left the room just before he came back.

As for her clothes, um yeah. My style is really not hers at all and it kind of made me think more of the 80s. Of course I'm more of a comfy jeans and sweater girl so that influenced how I feel about that. Basically she wore these tight gold/yellow pants (kind of looked like leggings but can't be positive), with I think it was black boots, and a fitted sweater dress that ended mid-thigh.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

And you just fueled the fire for Jared/Danneel fic. :p Uh, not for me personally as I don't really write but yeah.

I have nothing against Danneel, I'm sure she's lovely. Though I wonder if people didn't approach her because she looked bored/tired was putting out a "don't come near me" vibe or if she was putting out that vibe so that people wouldn't come near her.

I think with Danneel's tallness (she's sorta tall, yeah?) and body shape she can get away with wearing such clothes, on me (being short and fat like) I don't think such an outfit would look quite so good.
