It’s a good day

…if I get to go to Starbucks:
I went for the venti skim misto today because I’m out of yogurt and figured I could use the extra dairy. And then I got half decaf so I’m not bouncing off the walls all day, because that’s not good for anyone.
This morning I went to go to the pharmacy on my way in to work because I’m out of shampoo and…it was a liquor store. Like there were bottles of Jack Daniels and Hennessey in the window, instead of shampoo and toothpaste and other personal hygiene-type things. And I have to admit, I got a little excited about the prospect of a liquor store on my way home from the train. Especially if they sold wine, unlike the “liquor store” on the end of my block that has maybe, on a good day, one bottle of Smirnoff vodka and is clearly a front for something illegal and scary.
But then I started really looking around the street and I realized that clearly, there was a movie shoot going on, and the pharmacy will most likely be back tomorrow.
This was before the coffee, obviously.

Haha, glad it’s a good day, and that you got your coffee!! :0)
Oooh, a movie shoot?!??! Any idea which film??
Hahah love it.
I am not all there before coffee as well. haha
I think it’s the movie about biggie. But that’s just a guess.
Basically, I saw a big black guy on the set.
LOL… glad your pharmacy will return back to normal… It’s not a good day for me unless I get my coffee…
Only in West Virginia can you buy dental-hygeine products and vodka in the same store.
I am finally catching up on your blog, and now will have one more reason (in addition to having a roof in sunny san fran, yoga, snacks, etc.) not to get a job. This is hysterical, and I will need to keep up on all of the news, such as this oh-so-nyc-pharmacy-to-liquor-store-film-set.
I just bougth the same Cool Pix camera! I am glad someone told you it was a good camera. I just bought it because it was on sale and cute.
Any day with starbucks is a good day… I think I’d be lost without coffee. And you can sleep on my blog all you want
Your life is so glamorous. With the movie shoots and all.
I haven’t lived here all that long, but I’m going to take a shot in the dark that we don’t have those in Kansas.
Liquor stores, though - we’ve got those.
I love that you deduced that it’s a movie about Biggie.
I was just thinking about him this weekend. Randomly. Him, and Mase. What is Mase even doing these days? I hear he’s a Preacher or something of the like. Interesting….
Am I the only one who misses the green Starbucks cups?
Lindz -
I think tomorrow it will be fine. I need shampoo.
Marcos -
That is so true. Also, hot dogs. And hairbrushes. Gotta love 7-Eleven.
Rachael -
Snacks are a great reason not to get a job. And I don’t want to hear about that sunny roof deck again!
Run -
It’s good I think. I am bad, though, so don’t judge by my pictures.
Linds -
Me too. I love coffee.
Jenny -
Hahaha…do you have liquor stores that also sell toothbrushes, though? That’s the question.
Brookem -
Mase! I forgot all about him. He is a preacher I think. At least that’s what Chris said and he knows about things that have to do with hip hop.
WeightingGame -
I do! These brown ones are lame and boring.
