Guess who's drinking Iced Tall Half and Half Misto at Starbucks?
You guessed it.
Yours truly has finally managed to get away from the office slightly earlier today than yesterday. Not by much, mind you. On Monday and Thursday, I left the office at 10 PM. Today, 8 PM. Usually it's 7 PM but... what can you do? I have two major events to take care of plus a ton of orders.
And I woke up earlier, too, today. I had to be up by 7 because we had one of those rounds of store visits to the branches again. I was supposed to be there at 10 but I figured, hey, if I could leave early, maybe I could have a Starbucks breakfast first before the whole merchandising crap got in the way. But when I arrived at 9.30 my staff was already waiting for me. So, I didn't get to have breakfast immediately. Had to wait until an hour later after I finished discussing boring work stuff with her. But by then my colleagues arrived (they were late!) and the bosses were there, too, so I didn't get to escape to Starbucks for that iced misto! *sigh*
Fortunately, though, I found jelly beans and chocolates on the sweets counter across my bookstore. That also made me quite happy. :)
After the store visits were over, I had to rush back to work so no misto again until tonight.
But now... NOW I'M DRINKING IT! My Iced Tall Half and Half Misto withdrawal period is over! Hurrah!
(Yes, apparently, I'm that addicted. But when am I not?)
