going to grab a coffee, mg. want one?
nah. thanks, vin. but you know, i actually switched to green tea with the caffeine ban. i got used to it. i actually like it, even though it's supposed to be sort of good for you or whatever.
really? that is amazing! green tea is supposed to be incredible for you!
yep. it feels kind of clean. it has some caffeine, but not as much as coffee. and it doesn't have whatever other crap coffee has in it. i'm going to stick with that for a while.
you are off coffee? i hadn't even noticed. what with all the chaos around here. i have been a basket case. i've been keeping my go bag strapped around my waist in a fanny pack. one day it's the lights off and on, and the next it's the fire alarms and everything else, i don't have to tell you. it has been a horror on my skin. dry, scrunchy, panicky. not to mention i always think we're about to die any minute.
yeah, it's been crazy. but now that the construction's stopped it should be settled for a while.
did they finish already? i thought it was still those hideous dropcloths draped all around where the walls were?
yeah, no, they're not finished. they're on strike or something. i heard they'd been working without a contract and finally just stopped until they get one. vin, did you say your skin is 'panicky'?
oh, yes! see, you probably don't have that problem, because green tea is perfect for it. you've been soothing your skin, and you didn't even realize it. espresso only makes it startle more easily. but what can i do? a daily double macchiatto is the only vice i allow myself anymore. unless you count sneaking the occasional peek in the locker room at the gym. which i don't. well, just like they suggested, i'm "off for coffee!" back in a snap.
