i’m talking to strangers… here’s why.
me: can i have a decaf, iced, tall americano?
him: *laughs* cool. *laughs*
me: *bemused expression*
him: that order just makes me want to laugh.
me: i hope in a good way.
him: yes, right on. *collects himself* what was that order again?
me: *repeats order*
him: cool.
my drink arrived and the side of laughter made the coffee taste a lot less bitter. a fine way to start the day.
Fun! That’s a great way to start the day. :)
once i got over how bizarre his reaction was, i realized the beauty of the moment.
Cool! *laughs*
ha. well played, cloud, well played.
OR
ha. well played, kirilova, well played.
Oh dear… You just made it real! I’m going to have to decide soon… :)
“what’s the price of friendship?”
Maybe he’d been smoking the Americano beans.
that seems like a plausible situation.
I’m nothing if not plausible (lies! lies! lies!)
