Scene: Kristin and I enter Starbucks. We are in the middle of talking about how there is a Menchie’s across the street, how they’re overpriced and how (despite having to take out a loan to buy frozen yogurt) we still need to go one time. Both of us approach the counter with two fairly cute male baristas.

Me: Hello!

Starbucks man #1: Hi! What can I get for you today?

Kristin: Can I get a grande pumpkin spice latte?

Starbucks man #1: Sure! And you?

Me: Same please!

* Starbucks man #1 hands Kristin her latte *

Me: I love the Fall time.

Kristin: I know! I love how it already feels like Fall weather.

Me: What’s the largest size you can get at Starbucks? Like, tri-venti? Can I ask for a barrel of pumpkin spice? They’re so good!

Kristin: I think venti is the largest.

* Starbucks man #2 hands me over two lattes *

Me: Huh? Did you get yours already?

Kristin: Yeah, I think they made a mistake.

Me: Excuse me, who is the extra one for?

Starbucks man #2: Oops, sorry. My mistake. Um. You can just have it.

Me: Are you sure?

Starbucks man #1: Yeah, you can take it and throw it at a car or something.

* We laugh and walk away *

Me: When I said tri-venti, I was kidding!

Kristin: HAHA! Well, looks like you got what you wanted!

* Starbucks man #2 runs up and approaches where we are sitting *

Starbucks man #2: Excuse me, would you also like some free pumpkin cheesecake muffins?

Me: Yes. Yes we do.

End scene

Yup, today was a good day.
