Just for a few days....
I'd like to be one of those people who sit in Starbucks with their laptops at 12:30pm on a Monday or Tuesday...or Wednesday and so on. This last Monday I didn't have work as it was 'Columbus Day,' and while I swear that was a Holiday which was only observed in Elementary school, somehow my company still supports it...so Thank You Columbus for sailing the blue! It's basically a non official holiday, and even though I had the day off it felt like I was really playing hookie or something on a Monday. Businesses were operating as per usual, where as on other Monday Holidays i.e. Labor Day everything seems to be closed. So as I walked into Starbucks (yes, yes I am actually investing stock into it!), to grab a Chai Latte with soymilk before tracking to La Mirade? To meet my Dad for some lunch, I couldn't help but stop and take a second to feel a little jealous of the "laptop, sit at Starbucks for hours and act busy, generation." In college I would attempt to get my studying done at coffee houses but it never worked for me; too much distraction. But these people I swear - none of them were college aged students. They were part of the " I work from home (or really Starbucks) on my Mac computer " niche of people ...particularly in Los Angeles i'm sure...but I wanted to be one of them!
Just for a month or two I want to be one of those Starbucks junkies who has time to sleep in, go for a jog, then grab my morning paper, and pretend to do some work on my laptop while I sit for hours at Starbucks people watching in brainstorming, thinking about life, type of people.
Anyways that is all. I haven't been inspired to write anything to fantastic lately. I've been busy working some type of job 7 days a week, and on top of it i'm sick! Thank God my Vegas vacation is just around the corner, although I don't know how relaxing Vegas will be, but i'm excited to have a good time. Not to excited to drop hard earned money on stupid shit, but still ...what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
