Death Coffee

I am one of those people who says to themselves "I will read the email quickly now, and get back to her on my next break". Then I read it, enjoy reading it, answer the questions in my head and forget to respond.

I was walking to work today and I thought, oh pigs toes! I didn't reply to Cristin.

To start off my email, I'd like to tell you about my difficulty getting a coffee today.

I walk to work about 50% of the time. I decided to stop into a little place 'Oren's daily roast' rather than going to a larger coffee chain. I had never been there. I walk in, there are two guys behind the counter (both rather socially awkward).
The board directly in my view is only for 'by the pound' coffee. The board I can't see at all has 'beverage options'. So I ask, what is your daily coffee? And he kind of gets crappy with me and turns around to a board and reads it off to me. He could have just pointed. Well, I'm not sure what would have made me happy, but that is beside the point.

So I order a Large Chocolate Hazelnut coffee, add some sugar and leave.

I take a sip, it's filthy. I hate it, it tastes like death.

I wait a few more blocks, one more sip. DEATH.

Then I thought, why the heck didn't I Just stop at Rohr's? I was already wayyy past that though. (Enter, "Oh pigs toes" comment)

Anyway, I threw it in the next garbage bin I saw, so as not to further torture myself with gross coffee and stopped by Dunkin Donuts for a not that delicious, but fairly standard Iced Coffee.
