View Full Version : Chicky's Café. What's your drink of choice?

Welcome, one and all, to my humble Cafe'!
Since I had so much success with my e-coffeeshop, I've decided to open a new café... one not strictly limited to coffee (although, it IS my drink of choice!), but to all drinks.
Its been a stressful day at work, you're tired, your feet hurt, all you want is a nice cup o'...
Cup o' what? Coffee? Green tea? Bailey's? OJ? Prune juice?
My cup o' choice as been named the Historian - it is a Grande Latte with one pump hazelnut and one pump vanilla... its divinity-in-a-cup... nirvana... absolute splendor.
What's yours?
Pull up a chair, put your feet up, drinks are on the house! :)
"A cup of coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent."

What in the world happened?!
I left for 5 hours. FIVE!! And I had to go through 8 pages of my girl getting hit on left and right...
Needless to say, I went through about 4 different apartments today... and so far, I've hit nothing.
The nice looking ones are kind of old + small... the big ones are expensive + crappy.
... ridiculous.
I'm packin my bags, moving to tn. Move over hc. I promise I don't move around much in bed... unless you want me to ;)
As far as the cat goes, I'll up my benadryl and we can take it from there.
Oy. Anyone have a long day? I'm up for cleaning my apartment, having a beer, and just watching a movie.

Honey, I'm already drinking a beer, it has most definitely been a beer kind of day. And just when I thought it couldn't get worse, some PERSON (ooh, please can I swear?) called my avatar a big white rat, and said that my mommy should spank me, all because I said that someone inviting 6 extra guests to someone else's sit down dinner party was rude. AHHHHH, and the thread is closed and I can't even tell her to go to He**. I am so mad right now!:mad:
So, how are all of you? Please, someone tell me a joke or something before my head blows off. I colored my hair auburn today, I guess red heads really do have a hot temper. Hmmmm, this might work in my favor, or not.:eek:

The Muffin Girl
I had recently gotten out of a serious relationship of 3 years. She asked me out to lunch, and I figured... it can't hurt. It's just lunch. After 2 - 3 lunches, we met up for dinner. At dinner, (after knowing her for 2 weeks) she looks at me and asks, "So, what are we now?" I put my fork down.
::clears throat:: "um...what?"
"What are we now?"
"we are...friends."
"ok, just checking"
I should have ran for the hills, but I was in need of friends... so I stuck around. A week later, we went out to a movie, then we went for desserts at a local bistro late at night. When we got back to my place (where she was parked), we found her tire flat. Since it was raining, cold, and late, I told her to spend the night and I'd change the tire in the morning. I spent the night on the couch while she slept on my bed. NOTHING happened. The next morning, I wake up to the smell of muffins. Yum. Then I realized, she's cooking breakfast. No big deal... she's saying "thanks" for last night... no biggie.
Then I heard the washer running. I thought, "My roomie's doing his laundry..." nope. He hadn't woken up yet. I looked at her...
"Are you doing my laundry?"
"yeah, I saw your pile and figured you needed it done"
"yeah...but...well, thanks...but...really. I can do my own laundry"
"no, really, it was no trouble"
"ok...but in the future, please. let me do my own laundry"
What got me out of that?. isn't it obvious?

Here you go Alty , a Joke just for you :-)
WIFE FROM HELL
A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says, ' I clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir.'
The driver says, 'Gee, officer I had it on cruise control at 60, perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating.'
Not looking up from her knitting the wife says: 'Now don't be silly dear, you know that this car doesn't have cruise control.'
As the officer writes out the ticket, the driver looks over at his wife and growls, 'Can't you please keep your mouth shut for once?'
The wife smiles demurely and says, 'You should be thankful your radar detector went off when it did.'
As the officer makes out the second ticket for the illegal radar detector unit, the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched teeth, 'Damit, woman, can't you keep your mouth shut?'
The officer frowns and says, 'And I notice that you're not wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an automatic $75 fine.'
The driver says, 'Yeah, well, you see officer, I had it on, but took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my license out of my back pocket.'
The wife says, 'Now, dear, you know very well that you didn't have your seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when you're driving.'
And as the police officer is writing out the third ticket the driver turns to his wife and barks, 'WHY DON'T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP? '
The officer looks over at the woman and asks, 'Does your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?'
I love this part... :
'Only when he's been drinking.'

Maybe your dog will eat her cat and you won't have to worry about your allergies. Hey, did I just say that? HChicky, you know I was kidding, I love your little kitty, besides, I think your cat's bigger than Sneezy's dog anyway, so there's not chance that kitty would get eaten.

Want to hear something sad, I don't color my hair because I want a change anymore. I actually saw a few grey ones popping up. My mother was right about grey hair, pluck one and ten come to the funeral. Die grey hair DYE!
Hey Sneezy, I think that HChicky is only 29, that's not such a huge leap. Just be lucky I'm not single, otherwise I'd be going after you myself. Talk about an age difference. Really, it's the beer talking. Bad Alty, bad girl.

Kind of woke up on the wrong side of bed... actually, I woke up with piece of a broken coat hanger sticking in my back. Where'd it come from, you ask? No idea. Maybe it's from that place where my lost socks go.
First thing I do this morning, I grab a cup, and I start calling up apartments. This will be my routine until I go to work... where I'll be calling apartments AT work. Why's it so hard to find an apartment?! With the way foreclosures go, I might as well buy a house...

Ya, I started to read that thread with the poor girl who thinks all men are Sh*t, she's just bitter right now, I'm sure she'll be fine. I won't post on it though, if I say something the poo will hit the fan, I'm sure of it. Taking Starty's advice, I'll stay out of that fight.
HChicky, how are you dear? Everything going well this fine morning?
Hey Alty, doing good. How about you?
Yep, there are some things I should stay out of. :) Hehehe.
So what are you drinking this morning?
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:23 AM
I've got my good old Folgers in a 16 oz. mug. On my second so far, and I think it's going to be a two pots of coffee kind of day. I did like your idea, and I wouldn't object to a corona tonight. How about we all meet later?
Hey, maybe we should have HChicky's coffee shop and Alty's Pub, for after hours.
HistorianChick
Mar 27, 2008, 07:24 AM
AWw!! Yes, you need to start an afterhours Alty's Pub! :)
I'm good this morning - busy, feeling sicky, but drinking coffee! :)
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:32 AM
You're feeling sicky? I hope you don't get that flu that's been going around.
Okay, Alty switches to Mommy mode. HChicky, drink plenty of fluid, get some echinacea and start it asap, also, chicken noodle soup. Stay in bed this weekend, call Sneezy and let him take care of you. After all, he'll be a Doctor some day, he might as well practice now.
Do you really think I should start a Pub? My threads never go well, I'm ecstatic if I get three responses. I don't want to start a Pub and have it go out of business.
HistorianChick
Mar 27, 2008, 07:34 AM

I like your Doc Sneezy idea... I'll be his patient for the weekend! I need someone to take care of me... :(
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:36 AM
Sneezy, are you here? Wake up boy, HChicky needs you!
Okay, I'll start a pub, but you all better come visit and keep it alive. Deep breath, big gulp, and dive right in Alty.
I'll post the link when I'm done.

I'm hoping it will only be afterhours, I need my coffee in the morning. The beer and stuff should be at night. Really, you've got to get internet access at home sweetie. :)

Mar 27, 2008, 07:49 AM
I know, I know... I don't have a land-line, that's the problem. My cell is adequate for everything I need... the whole internet issue is just an extra bill for the month...
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:52 AM
That's true.
The funny thing is, when high speed internet access became available in our area, our phone company put together a package that actually ended up costing less then we were already paying for our dial-up service. Now we have super high-speed internet and it's costing us less every month than before.
Hey, if Sneezy moves in with you, you can split the bills, including the bill for internet access. This could work out in allot of ways.
HistorianChick
Mar 27, 2008, 07:56 AM

Ok, I'm reaching my caffeine buffer... not quite there yet... let me get a few more cups in me and I'm sure I'll retract that statement...

ISneezeFunny
Mar 27, 2008, 08:04 AM
I'm here.
HChicky, I will be there shortly with the godivas + theraflu.
alty, I'm seriously considering just up and leaving atl. After going through about 17 sales pitches about how "wonderful and luxurious" these crappy apartments are... I've had it. One woman advertised it as a "spacious and luxurious 1bd/1ba"... I went to look at it. It's the freaking basement of her house built in 1920!! What the hell?!
I have 2 stories to enlighten you all.
1: remember my Tuesday midterm? Well... there were 4 math questions... took us about 2 hours. I didn't finish the last question... so I felt kind of bad, but whatever. I get an e-mail from the prof after class that states "Sorry guys...but after I looked over the midterm I realized that I wrote #3 and #4 wrong...it was supposed to work out well in the end, but I mixed up the two variables, which led to a messy equation"
It was a messy equation. Near the end of #3, I was writing 3 - 4 line equations. So... to "make up" for it, we have a makeup midterm. Today. I guess I wasn't done yet.
2: some of you know I day-trade. My dad's an entrepreneur... but lately, as the market's doing poorly, he decides to just hold off on his businesses and calls me and says, "How would you like it if I invested some money? I'll give you some money, and you invest...and you take a certain percentage of the gains"
... no father. I would very much not like to put the well-being of our financial status into my own hands. Especially not into my 22-year old, amateur hands.

Wow, Sneezy, I think that's an offer you can't refuse. Just don't forget your allergy meds, remember the kitty!
I've got to post a thread about eye surgery. I've got an appointment tomorrow to see if I'm a good candidate for lasik. My hubby had it done a few month ago and he loves it, he now has 20/20 vision. My eyesight is not nearly as bad as his was, but I'm sick of wearing glasses, especially in the winter. The problem is, I have a huge problem with anyone touching my eyes, really big problem. Hubby explained the surgery to me step by step, and it doesn't sound to bad, but it would be better if they just put me under, did the surgery and then let me wake up with my brand new vision. Eeek, I'm scared.
HistorianChick

Sneezy, what are you waiting for, you already have a written invitation. Pack up your bags and go. Wait, do laundry first, you don't want HChicky's first impression of you to be your dirty underwear. Yes, laundry, pack, and go.

I have that SAME problem, Alty! I (honestly) would rather go to the dentist then the optometrist! I tear up if I see someone touch their eyes, or, blah... put in contacts. Ick...
But, I think you'd really like the affects of lasik - everyone I know that has had it done is sooooo glad. Hope you're able to do it! :)

The whole reason my Mum came to see me over Easter was she was on her way back from spending two weeks in FL with him and her Mom.
Thinking of your grandparents not being there one day is hard, but when you're checked with reality like today, its difficult at best.

Welcome, one and all, to my humble Cafe'!
Since I had so much success with my e-coffeeshop, I've decided to open a new cafe... one not strictly limited to coffee (although, it IS my drink of choice!), but to all drinks.
Its been a stressful day at work, you're tired, your feet hurt, all you want is a nice cup o'.......
Cup o' what?? Coffee? Green tea? Bailey's? OJ? Prune juice??
My cup o' choice as been named the Historian - it is a Grande Latte with one pump hazelnut and one pump vanilla... its divinity-in-a-cup... nirvana.... absolute splendor.
What's yours??
Pull up a chair, put your feet up, drinks are on the house! :)
"A cup of coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent."
Just come home from work feet are killing me so what am I having... A NICE CUP OF ROSY LEE ( TEA) I know that sounds really boring folks but couldn't live without my TETLEY'S ahh...

If it's a hot summer eve.. its COLD amber bock beer while I grill steak. Jack and coke can also fix the need.
If it's a dinner date with my wife, its either a lush red or korbel champaigne. If its really out of hand get the tabasco and tequilla out. Hopefully someone's arranged for childcare. And bail money.
If its cold out, hot chocolate cut with bailey's is wonderful by the fire.

Meridian's chardonnay is readily available around here ($7-9), but the typical cali "oak"... been doing estancia's pinot grigio for a year and still happy with it... a buck or two more if bought right. Korbel bought at sam's still is the deal of the decade in my opinion.

The kids are officially on spring break, heaven help me, and I told them they could stay up an extra hour today. Yikes, what am I going to do with those rug rats all next week? Hey, there's still dog poo to pick up in the backyard, hmmm, I guess they won't be bored after all. Tee, hee, hee.

That's okay, I was joking about the poo pick up.
Actually I have a big week planned. Swimming, the library, maybe the zoo (depends on the weather) and bringing the bikes out of the shed.
The kids are both really excited, and so am I.

That's OK. Kids have to learn sometime.
I keep making my dad to force my little brother to mow the lawn, take out the trash, and vacuum the house, but being the baby of the family, "he can't do hard work"... bullspit!
How's everyone doing?
Alty
Mar 27, 2008, 07:10 PM
Oh Sneezy, I wouldn't make the kids scoop the poop, never. Besides, if they don't watch their step and end up finding a dog bomb then it ends up being more work for me.
My son has chores that a nine year old is capable of doing, as does my daughter (geared for a five year old). They do need to learn responsibility, but having dogs was my idea and hubbies, so it's my job and hubbies to scoop poop. That's fun to say, scoop poop. Giggle.

HChicky and Sneezy - I thought I was the instigator, apparently you two don't need me around. I read all the conversation I missed today and I must say, I'm with Synn, Get a room. Tee, hee, and to think I'm the one who brought (or is it pushed) the two of you together. I have proof, it's all in writing.
KP - I've never had an amber bock, actually, I've never even heard of an amber bock. Is it beer? If so, is it good? Darnit I hate not being able to have one little drink tonight.

Another kindred spitit!
Christmas morning and easter morning are spent sipping korbel brut diluted with orange juice (1/3 korbel, the rest ice and OJ)... two or three large glasses in and you just are a slug the rest of the day.
Our christmas day menu is mimosas with the best damn waffles ever, oven baked bacon, and strata, followed by more mimosas and napping/movie/more napping.
Can't beat sams club... $8.10 korbel brut and a few big gallons of pulp free OJ. Yum...

It's a michelob product. Brown bottle. My wife doesn't like dark beer, but she likes this one... especially ice cold. The naughty girl never wants a beer of her own.. she just wants the top, cold portion of my beer. But she keeps me around and seems to think I'm cute enough, so its all good.
As for tonights dinner drink, it took a different turn... did grill the flank steak (was WONDERFUL) but went with an open white that needed to be consumed. Complete mismatch of wine and food but like I give a damn.
Standing outside with a fire cooking streak and a glass in my hand on a Friday was good enough for me.

I passed out around 930pm. Woke up at 3am.. . then I beat myself up to go back to sleep...

I never got into WoW, I was addicted for like 2 weeks, But then I hated the kid that had it because he became an a$$hole and did something soooo entirely stupid that I've never talked to him. And he was my best friend from Pre-K
But on drinks, I felt extremenly crappy this morning and we had this big family dinner because my cousin had his 18th birthday yesterday and he did stuff with friends... and in my state I just wanted a cup of hot tea. Me and my cousin are both tea drinkers so I go up into his room while he's playing Halo 3 and I look and grab a bag of Apple Cinnamon Tea and I Make the tea and Its REALLLY Hot and kind of bland so I take my moms tea bag which was orange and I put it in there and grab a diet mountain dew.. AFter the meal I saw my cup and was like hmmm fergot about this put it to my mouth and OMG it was soooo good... it was warm and spicy and citrusy and it gave me that warm fuzzy feeling
