I'd rather drink a pop full of ants...

After work today I thought that I would treat myself to a nice mocha; dreaming of its chocolate coffee deliciousness I drove to the nearest coffee hut. This particular coffee hut I had never tried before but I thought how could you screw up a mocha? So I went. Paid my $3 plus tip sat in my car dreaming of the deliciousness that was about to hit my lips. When I got it I savored its sweet coffee smell with a hint of chocolate, when I drank it I took a sip of the most disgusting coffee/chocolate powder mixture I have ever tasted. I think spraying chocolate onto a used coffee filter would have been more appealing. It was like this chocolate powder sludge that I think was bakers coco powder not Quick or Ovalteen but un-sweetened, chunky, wet and bitter! I wanted to cry "MORE OVALTEEN PLEASE!" because that would've been better. It was so bad that I almost turned around and told the lady at "Cup a Go Go" to go-go shove the coffee where the sun don't shine because it tastes like it came from there and needs to go back! Yuck! I should've guessed anywhere with a stupid name like that and an ad for candy corn flavored latte made with vanilla and orange should've been the tip off. Sometimes we just do dumb things...

Well, anyway, I should maybe talk about something educational since after all this is suppose to be an educational discussion not "coffee talk." Today was a good day, things went well, not too many drawn out conversations over if we should have mouse pads or not. One of my girls that left last week is back, I didn't have much time to talk with her because I had some other students with home school work that I had to tend but she wasn't too happy to be back. I guess I wasn't pleased as punch to see her back either. I mean, I like her, it is just I do not like to see her there.

I guess, I just needed to rant a little about the coffee, not much else has happened in my world.
