Today I went to Lawrence, had lunch with Jen and her friend whose name escapes me right now. Thai food, mmmm. After lunch I went downtown and hit Urban Outfitters and Hobbs, which is a funky local shop that reminds me a bunch of Greenwich Village. I bought a card for a friend and proceeded across the street to Starbucks. I set my "enriched flour"bag down on the counter and the girl said, "Ah, you've been to Hobbs." "Yup, sure have!" "Last time I went in there I got a charcoal bag. It even said 'do not light grill inside.' All day long people were asking me why I had charcoal and was I going to have a barbeque?" It was pretty funny. This evening Jason and I played Monopoly with the girls. I was going to post that picture, but I didn't want to explain that I got a flour bag from a shop and have people going, "Nurr?" Anyhow, it was the "Horse Lover's Edition" that Leigha got for Christmas. It's so strange playing on a Monopoly set that's brand new. Monopoly is one of those games that's supposed to have dog eared pieces and is missing Oriental Avenue. After a while I drew a card from the pile that said I won $50 and said, "Oh, crap, I drew the 'you lose' card." I don't like playing for longer than half an hour, after that it's just not fun anymore.

Seriously, go through your pictures and look at how many times Starbucks is featured in pic of the day. Honey, I think you're addicted. Sorry, but it had to be said.
Three. I just happen to drink a lot of coffee, and Starbucks are everywhere I go, and everywhere I go I take pictures. If I'm addicted, it's a happy addiction and I really don't care. Now where did I leave that needle?
They should be paying you for the advertising. There are lots of nice local coffee shops around here - we'll hit one of those soon.
I would like that very much. (the payment for advertising AND hitting a local coffee place) :-D
