wednesday morning grumpiness.

reason #347 why i will start walking to work if the MTA goes through with their oft-threatened fare hike:

this morning as i crawled to work on a local train, i saw the express zoom past. as we pulled in to the next station, there sat the express across the platform. yay! as i stood waiting for the doors of my train to open, i notice the express doors close. as our doors open, the express pulls away. before any of us have the chance to transfer to it. fury!

why, exactly, should i pay more than $2 for such incompetence???

------------------

i KNOW that probably no one else in the office liked the 'lemon blueberry passionfruit' tea (ed. note: sounds weird, but it was really quite good), so i sort of reconciled with the fact that once i finished off the box, they didn't replenish it. but this morning as i finished the last of the english black and went to the cabinet to replace it, i was faced with only boxes of earl grey. i like the earl and all, but we used to have about five tea varieties, and now we're down to just one, meanwhile the coffee drinkers just got a snazzy new 'german chocolate' variety. no fair!

this calls for a little note to our office suggestion box.

German Chocolate Coffee: ever had a brownie dipped in dirt? that's what it tastes like.

oh really?! hah - my lemon blueberry passionfruit tea didn't taste like dirt!

Now I like the Earl too, but not as my everyday tea!

It's strictly a morning variety for me.

tell them to start stocking maple bacon coffee. even if you're not a coffee drinker yourself, I have a feeling you just might like the aroma of fresh bacon wafting around your office. just a guess, though.
