Coffee Talk

I haven't been able to put together many intelligent thoughts today, and I think it might have something to do with the fact that I'm still reeling from a conversation I had earlier: Setting: Starbucks Me: (Approaching the table with my tall drip coffee) Is that the skim milk you have there? Stranger: (Holding a large silver pitcher) No, it's the non-fat milk. Sorry. At the risk of sounding too much like Britney Spears in a particularly embarrassing and widely circulated video out take from her series "Chaotic" - huh? I guess this is how the universe repays me for dissing the thesaurus yesterday.
