insight on a starbucks cup

i've been drinking a lot of starbucks recently. it's become an almost daily routine. but i just noticed before i went to chicago that the hot drink cups have quotes on them! a little daily inspiration from your coffee cup! another insightful move by the coffee conglom

i went to yoga tonight, and it was at times both very strenuous (i broke a serious sweat) and relaxing. i was so happy at the end, until my instructor said she is no longer going to be teaching the monday night class i always go to. boo! way to put a kink in my relaxing night.

a big shout out and thank you to lo, who believes in me and my quest for a better, cooler, more interesting blog (see comments). perhaps we'll discuss in more detail on our dinner/shopping date tomorrow night. i am desperately craving good friends, good gossip and a hug.

speaking of good friends, on friday some girls from work invited me out for happy hour drinks. i hate to sound like a loser, but i am always so happy to be included in things like that. most of the women are older than me, they've known each other longer, and they talk online all day to each other. when i get an invite to drinks, after work or on the weekend, i have a hard time saying no. i just like having friends.

they like me! they really like me!
