Went into Bruegger's today for my usual, and it was the same girl working that I always have! Maybe I notice this because I am paranoid that I am spending money and buying bad-for-me food and so I think everyone around me is judging me, but goll. Loosen the belt a bit, Bruegger's. Hire some more people.
Really it isn't my fault at all. So as a vegan, it is basically a diamond in the rough to find a treat at a coffee shoppe. I love coffee. I love non-chain establishments (i.e. The Purple Onion, Cafe Royale, etc.). But.
When this girl drinks coffee without a chaser, she goes a little crazy.
I feel like my head is spinning, that I could get a mountain of homework done. This is fantastic for late night crams, but when you have to sit through a lecture or take an exam, it is near impossible. Concentrating is near impossible.
So back to the point, Bruegger's, though their dark roast is piss,
(funny story: I was sitting in Bruegger's with my usual, and a crazy walked in and ordered two coffees to go. He got them, sampled one, and started bellering about how awful it tasted. After demanding a refund (to which he was rejected), he resorted to auctioning it off to the crowd. I was amused and nearly joined his mutiny when he was ushered out of the building.)
...they do have wonderful whole wheat bagels with crunchy peanut butter. Ah, bliss. So my usual is created: one tall dark roast and a whole wheat bagel, toasted, with peanut butter.
And I swear the girl knows my order before I say it, but she says nothing, not even a smile. Yet I think she is judging me. Maybe I'm a crazy?
raeeee. i wish i could join you every morning and have a "usual" with you while we sit in a cute coffee shop.
