it is so hot in Boston... i just got out of working from 530 this morning and then going to my school to finish paying for next semester (which is done and i also got my books! yay!).. i feel so icky, but i must say, it is the most wonderful feeling walking in to an air conditioned apartment. thanks to my guinea pigs, i keep my a/c on all the time.

oh, today i had a doozy of a customer! this woman wanted a doppio which is 2 shots of espresso. i made it for her and when i gave it to her she had this expression on her face like i just decapitated an octopus and told her to eat it. the conversation following went a little like this...

she says "what's.... that?"
i say " you wanted a doppio, right?"
she said "yeah?"
i said "well, that's it.. it's two shots of espresso"
she just stares at me for a second and then says... "i just want a cup of coffee" and then got all huffy....

jesus... seriously.. pleae don't order something that you think sounds "cool" and then become pissed at the barista when you don't know what it is.
