I’m sure you are aware of my major<\/strike> slight obsession with Starbucks, and if you aren’t, well…let’s just say the friendly baristas at one (of the twenty) Starbucks in our area know exactly how I like my coffee, before I even tell them. (Venti non-fat, no whip, mocha with extra foam – thank you very much. In case you are coming to visit and would like to bring a hostess gift, a Grande version will also be acceptable.)<\/p>\n
But on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I usually take my laptop and go out<\/strong> to work, since it has been proven that working from the next room while the sitter is with the girls, well, that just doesn’t really “work” – for me, at least. So, Starbucks it is. I like the taste of their coffee and they don’t mind while I hunker down for a few hours in one of the tables near a power source for my laptop.<\/p>\n I was very excited when I saw the Starbucks Oracle<\/a> (thanks …And the Duck Said<\/a>!) and what did this Oracle have to say about me and my personality, according to my drink?!<\/p>\n I’m…high maintenance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n I am so very much in denial about this forecasting. I pride myself on being very low maintenance, in fact. This is what it said for me:<\/p>\n You pride yourself on being assertive and direct; everyone else thinks you’re bossy and arrogant. You’re constantly running your mouth about topics that only you would find interesting. Your capacity for wasting other people’s time is limitless. Your friends find you intolerable, that’s why they’re plotting to kill you.<\/em><\/p>\n Also drinks:<\/strong> Water. Bottled, chilled, with four ice cubes, a twist of lemon, in a crystal glass. R-e-e-a-a-l-l-y? I do know many who fit the above description, but I don’t think it applies to me. (Any of my “plotting” friends out there want to chime in?)<\/p>\n Clearly the Oracle is full of something…and it isn’t coffee, because we all know that coffee makes us mellow and very happy. And the Oracle appears to be a bitter old miser.<\/p>\n Your mission, my fellow Starbucks junkies, go see what the Oracle<\/a> says about you and report back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m sure you are aware of my major slight obsession with Starbucks, and if you aren’t, well…let’s just say the friendly baristas at one (of the twenty) Starbucks in our area know exactly how I like my coffee, before I … Continue reading
