No soup necessary

It's been raining. A lot. I'm pretty sure it's been raining for about 24 hours straight. It makes me sleepy. I don't mind it though.

I'm at my favorite coffee shop again because my evil Time Warner internet is out hours beyond the "scheduled outage." So what does that make this? A "TW needs to get a freakin' watch outage?" I think so. I think if their service people got watches also, it would help installations happen on time, not five or six hours beyond the scheduled time.

Wouldn't that be nice if you could show up for your job that way? "Well, I'm scheduled to be in at 8am...but look at that. Here I am at 6pm on the dot."

Okay, so things are looking up. I just purchased the "big oreo" which is wonderful in every way.

This makes up for the fact that the guy next to me's earphones are playing in speaker w/o him realizing and I really dislike Blues Traveller. I also dislike how he bumped into my table about 5 times trying to get by.

I am amused by the guy in a long coat who sauntered in out of the nighttime rain to request, get this...bread. He asked only for some plain bread. The guy seemed to think it was normal enough.

"It might be a bit stale," he said.

"No problem."

I stood in line behind him for my oreo and he said "pardon me" as he stepped backwards (though he didn't actually hit into me at all). He must have assumed he'd violated my 2-foot space radius.
He reminded me a lot of Edward Cullen, both in looks and behavoir, which as any 16-year-old girl knows, is a very good thing. I think he may be some sort of bread vampire. Who roams the city looking for sources of bread, stale or otherwise. No soup necessary. Unfortunately, bread vamp got it "to go."
