RN, I COMPLETELY agree Mamie. Just the other day, this one girl who I hadn't seen in a LONG time (she went travelling apparently, and I took a semester away from that route to school) saw me and said, "Hey where have you been!?" and we got back to talking like old times. I explained that I had been going to school downtown, and therefore wasn't passing this Starbucks anymore. Then I said, "But you haven't been around either when I have been coming here" and she told me about her trip. Then I went in on a Saturday (working up at school on Saturdays), and a former weekday morning girl said , "Hey I haven't seen you in a long time" and then she told me she moved to just Saturday mornings now that she is back in school full time. It's true, you get a few new people, and they mess it up, but eventually they learn. And it's funny, the ones I never warm up to are usually gone (fired/quit) before they annoy me too much. hahahaha

Right now, we even went to a wedding from one of the guys that worked there! Actually, he married one of my daughter's friends from high school and has since moved on to be a paramedic but we do talk all the time to everyone that works there. I go in with Elizabeth so often that if one of us goes in without the other, they'll ask where my daughter is or where her mother is.

Right now I've no idea what a venti cinnamon dolce frappuccino is. I don't drink coffee and those complicated names intimidate me - thank heavens orange juice is just "orange juice" or I might die of thirst.

RN, Irish, it's either a mocha or a latte...a plain latte is just espresso and milk....a mocha is espresso, milk, and chocolate... Just FYI...I know it used to piss me off when people would come into Starbucks and order a mocha latte...probably why I don't work there anymore...that...and the stories I could tell

RN I am totally addicted to Tim Horton's Mixed Berry Yogurt with real berries. 140 calories. I have it every morning for breakfast at work, or later in the day as dessert after lunch. YUM!

RN I wish there were more Timmy's and less Starbucks in Vancouver. I can get Starbucks within two blocks of me in three different directions... it's a 25 minute trek to the nearest Timmy's.

Right now, I am testing a wireless internet connection through Alltel. If it works to my satisfaction, we will go with this method of internet access. I have already been bumped off once so if this continues, we'll have to look for a different route. All that said....I MISSED YOU GUYS!!!!

Right now, Marysafan, if you are getting kicked off the wireless, check to see if you have any 2.4 Ghz cordless phones. That might be the culprit. The wireless routers are same frequency.

RN I have a blistering headache. I don't get them often and they annoy the heck out of me. I know that's silly but its me. I think it's cuz I didn't have any water with me at Curves and I began to feel a bit woozy there during my workout. Mind you that was about 2 1/2 hours ago. As I'm typing this... RIGHT NOW dh brought me a couple of Motrin tablets. Hope they help.

RN I agree with Jooj, we have cordless phones and they screw up our router all the time. AND my computer speakers always have this humming sound when they are on, which makes me nutso and I've been told its cuz of the cordless phones. Sigh.

Right now, so - if you can afford it and can find another good home for the 2.4Ghz phones, get rid of them and get some 5.8Ghz, or something else. Of course, if you live in apartments or condos, and all the neighbors have 2.4 Ghz phones, they could be interfering with your wireless reception too.
