hey, i got promoted at work a few weeks ago.  i am very excited about this but more so because i know that i did the right thing by staying at borders all this time.  i know i could be making a buttload more money somewhere else but i love the people i work with and i especially love my new boss who has been teaching me so much lately even though he is a mere 3 years older than me.  i also finished harry potter this morning so if anyone wants to talk about it, i have much to say.  :)  as i'm sure you do too.

yay for my new yoda shirt.  pictures to be added soon.

hey everyone. i thought i'd give this a try because i enjoy reading everyone else's. hopefully i will keep up with it.

so today at work i was covering someone's lunch break in the cafe and an older woman came up to the counter to order a drink. i'm sure her age has nothing to do with the story but i'm just trying to be descriptive. so she tells me she's on the south beach diet so she's not allowed to have any milk but she still wants a mocha. i told her that i could make it with soy milk and she just stares at me for awhile. then she asks what soy milk is so i tell her it's a milk alternative made from soy beans. again, more staring (it's kinda creepy now) and the she just burst out "well, how the hell do you milk a soy bean?!" it was just about the funniest thing ever. i wish i had a picture so i could show you the very distressed look on her face. :)
