Starbucks Bitch

I stopped at Starbucks at 11 a.m. the other day for a coffe. We had run out at home, so I hadn’t had my cuppa. I was sad, needing a boost, and felt entitled. I ordered my grande pumpkin spice latte with whipped cream and paid the $3.50 for it. (I treat myself to a coffee drink about twice a month.) The chick behind the counter took my money, looked at my belly disdainfully, and pointedly asked, “Are you sure you don’t want a decaf?”

“No, I don’t want a decaf, coffee bitch!”

    Next time tell her you’re not “shooting up” now that you’re in your second trimester.

    Why do coffee bitches gotta be so bitchy?

    I’m in awe. You didn’t rip her a new asshole? I would. It would have made me smile all day. In fact, if you let me know who it was, and which Starbuck’s, I’ll do it when I come down for T&E’s wedding.

    Thanks. You know, it’s the little things in life that have the tremendous power to tip you from reasonably happy, pregnant chic to hormone-crazed, blood-thirsty she-wolf. Depriving me of my coffee is one of them.
