Free Caffeine

It must have been a slow day at Starbucks, for the barista was in the process of throwing out a couple gallons of coffee as I walked in. I didn't want to wait 20 minutes for a new brew, all I wanted was my finger tips to tingle and that could be accomplished just as well with dirty old coffee sludge. So she gave me a cup of the gunk she was cleaning out of hot pot for free. Which should of made me happy, except it still bugged me that she did not fill it all the way to the top.

Dymo with Wifi

I'm sitting in a Starbucks writing this blog on a brand new Dymo labeler. I have a very bad headache which I'm trying to drown with coffee. Unfortunately, the only way to completely rid my pain would be to get today's caffeine intake up to where my daily consumption has been the last couple of weeks. This is not possible without further beverage investments because the barista filled my cup an inch from the brim despite my saying in a loud and clear voice "NO room for cream!" I could go back and insist on the rest of the coffee I paid for, but that would be too confrontational and just make my headache worst.
