Sorry you already know - ouch. I learned via an university roommate.

Okay I’m invested in this too now - do you know of any coworkers who are Starbucks junkies who could pick it up for you in the morning? I mean if they’re going anyway … :woman_shrugging:

No, we have a Dunkin Donuts literally next door and typically if people are buying coffee out they get it there.

Honestly, the office coffee is pretty good and most of us just drink that. I just would like a treat sometimes because it’s winter and I’m crabby.

What about getting yourself a non-coffee treat at starbucks so you still get a treat, but don’t have to worry about not sleeping?

I could see what kinds of herbal tea they have.
Also trying to avoid sugar. Failing, mostly. But trying. Which is too bad because I’d love some of their banana bread right now.

I had therapy today so that took up my lunch hour. Thpppppppt. Maybe tomorrow I can get myself a treat at lunch.

I went over budget this month :frowning: and so I’m not spending any more money until Saturday unless it’s an emergency. I ran out of beer two nights ago. I like to have a beer while watching Star Trek after Puglet goes to bed for the night. Being out of beer is annoying but not an emergency I guess.

My dog UNZIPPED MY BACKPACK and ate the burrito I made and packed for my lunch. He also ripped through (And ruined) my drawstring bag and the beeswax wrap I’d wrapped it in.

Nooooooo. This was my dog when he was younger. Too many times for me to need to learn that particular lesson!

Yeah, my guy is 7 or 8 so he has no excuse. His favorite things to steal are simple carbs (most favorite: bagels) but he’ll seize any opportunity. Here he is with a graham cracker pie crust… and below, with a contraband bagel.

Hahaha! Pre-instagram days I had a whole series of photos “food my dog stole and hid in the couch”

LOL, “Bagel Thief”. I wish my pets only stole food items. I mean, they do, vegetables especially. But one of my cats likes to chew through plastic bags of any kind (regardless of whether there is food in them or not, I think it is an oral fixation she has but is definitely bad for the digestive tract), which means that there can never be any plastic bags accessible ever. The up side is that the house is neater. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

My friend brute had a bad night and none of us live close enough to make it better.

I had a shitty exhausted day and was too tired to eat which made it all worse, and coming home the best thing to eat is…chips that my partner bought for his ex that she rejected when he dropped off her emergency post surgery grocery order. (The surgery was not an emergency…it was cosmetic and planned. But apparently the groceries were an emergency she needed her ex to cater to? I have fucking friends and family and Walmart to bring me food.).

I was unable to make rice after 9pm without screwing up the order that things went into the pan.

I’m sorry your dog stole your food but I feel like if he figured out how to unzip your backpack, he’s earned it. And look at that face!! He looks like he knows he’s too cute to actually get in trouble for any wrongdoing.

I was been in bed for almost 2 hours and can’t sleep. At what point do I give in to the inevitable and just download a new book from the library?

My current bedtime plan is to download a book as soon as I get to bed. So :octopus:
