the Starbucks lady

November 7th, 2007

So I was at Starbucks with my kids getting hot chocolate the other day. Another lady was in there with her baby…probably just a few months old. She drinks some coffee, and then LEAVES the baby by a chair and then goes out to smoke a cigarette and starts talking to some guy. SHE never ONCE looked back to see if her baby was okay. I was so upset. I could not believe that she did that. I rrreeaallly wanted to say something to her. But because my kids were with me I did not.

So then we get in the car and I start talking to my oldest about some toy for Christmas. And he says, “That is so last year mom”…I was like it is what…where did you learn that from….who are you little Martian….why are you talking to me like you are Napoleon Dynamite. Where do kids come up with these things. Seriously.

Later on that night in Penney’s..the guy on the speaker says…” Attention it is 9 pm and the store is closed. Please take your final purchases to a counter..blah ,blah” Chandler starts crying…”oh no we are locked in here all night, where are we going to eat, where are we going to sleep. I say, “Chandler we are okay, stop the crying” Then my eldest wanted to help the situation by saying, “Chandler we are going to have to sleep on the floor and the bugs could get you, and we are going to be so hungry tonight, and cold.” Well thank- you son…now he is really crying. I got down on his level and reassured him the nice people in penny’s would let us out! Such brotherly love!!!! Will the teasing ever end. Probably not cause me and my sisters still tease each other.
