Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forgive the ones who didn't. Believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it! If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said it would be easy. They just promised it would be worth it.

The Culture of Coffee, and other True Stories

Yes, the job is fun. Yes, I do really like it. I assumed that there would be regulars at the drive-thru every morning, but SERIOUSLY PEOPLE?! This proves to me that coffee really is a drug. I'm working tomorrow morning at the 9th street location, if anyone needs their fix. Still going strong on training, and my manager said that I am doing very well for someone with no experience in the professional espresso field.

On the bad side of life, we had a close family friend pass away this week. My Nana's good friend, Joel, found out he had cancer at the end of the summer. Nana convinced him to do chemo, so he did. Dad and I had no clue that he was even close to passing, but alas... Dave and I are driving down to Medford for the funeral Sunday afternoon when I get off of work. We will be back Monday night.

What was weird was another family that is closewith our also lost a grandparent this week. Jackie found a fish floating in the fish tank at my Dad's house. Dave found a dead rat last night in the basement of the house while doing laundry. Emma, one of my best friends, her grandmother is also not doing well, and might have to go to Ohio again soon. Death all over! I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. We will have to wait and see. Tell your friends and family that you love them, and make sure that they know they are loved. Appreciate those in your life because they might not be around forever.
