here's to you, dunkin' donuts employee


i guess saturday's at 10:04 am are times when my brain is just completely (and uselessly) random. i think in the span of ten minutes i can go from enjoying my pumpkin latte, to contemplating what shade darker i want to color my hair, to what i'm going to wear, to christmas, to how awfully yucky it is that the days you get to sleep in are the days that you wake up even more tired then when you wake up when it is still dark outside, and then back to how darn good that latte is. who invented pumpkin-spice-flavoring? i owe you a lot of thanks and grumpy-less mornings.

but about that latte. and that lovely cheerful man working at the dunkin' on this cheery, november 3rd, forty-something degree morning. thank you. because sometimes when you visit a dunkin' at 9:30 in the morning, and a very lovely employee of said dunkin' asks if you want whipped  cream, and you reply nicely "no thank you", he says something remarkably sweet.

"oh come'on, get the whipped cream. it's been a long week and you deserve it."

i think everyone should be this cheery and nice and sweet, especially at 9:30 in the morning (and promoting free whipped cream). so hats off to you dunkin' donuts employee, and thanks.
