Conversation at Starbucks this morning while I was being a nice roommate and getting coffee for both Nick and I:Me: I'd like a grande no-fat mocha. And also a grande white chocolate mocha with a shot of vanilla and a dash of cinnaman.
Man making the coffee machine perks up: Did you say a white chocolate mocha with vanilla and cinnaman? Is that for Nick?
Me: Um, yes [thinking Nick comes here way too often].
Man: [swoons] How do you know Nick?
Me: He's my roommate
Man: [even more swooning] Oh my gosh! You..are...so... lucky!!! [swoon swoon swoon]
Me: [trying to excise the traces of sarcasm from my voice] You have no idea...
I've been chuckling all morning. I tell Nick this story, and he just shrugs, and says Yeah, he kind of has a thing for me. His whole office did get a kick out of it though.
As for my test tonight, well, as usual, I am not ready at all. I studied for MAX an hour at 4 a.m. and then went back to bed (why oh why do I have to be an early morning studier?) Now, I'm going to try to squeeze a bit more in this morning, because this afternoon is booked up.
