Oh, the dreaded 5-Minute Sleep! I closed my eyes and settled in for some hardcore sleeping, but mere minutes later my alarm was going off and Limozeen was telling me to mix liquid and leather in equal measure because it’s midnight. I’m very tired right now, and today’s schedule isn’t going to give me any time for slothing: immediately after work we have to race home and get ready for Ed’s office party. I’ve been promised that we won’t be staying long at the party; just long enough for the free food and as many drinks from the open bar we (they) can pound back. After that we will pick up Josh (I was unable to secure him a date for Ed’s office party, being that it’s not my office and all) and head to some fancy lounge place to celebrate someone’s birthday, where I am utterly looking forward to feeling awkward and extremely out of place because people like me don’t go to places like that and it shows.

I’m tired just thinking about it all!

I am also utterly fed up with the whole No Starbucks thing that Vancouver has been experiencing lately, thanks to the contaminated water supply. I don’t so much care about the coffee, but I can’t have chai (bad) and I can’t have my lemonade (badder). I looked in my fridge this morning, and realized that a solution to my craving was at hand and didn’t require my driving to another district to find a Starbucks there: I would make my OWN drink!

Right now on my desk at work I have a pitcher of Passion Tea brewing, a bottle of lemonade, and even a small bottle of Valencia syrup right from Starbucks itself. All I need to do now is pay myself $4, and woo – tasty beverage! I am excited. No contaminated water will stop ME from getting my game on. I am far too crafty to be outsmarted by some stupid turbids!

Hey, look at this! Heeee.
