No Starbucks Cheer... :(

I have terrible news to report.


This weekend will be Starbucks-less.

[Not true, actually. I'm in Queens and tomorow I am going to a place that has a Starbucks in it, but this blog is devoted to the Starbucks near me]

Next weekend, I promise I will got to Starbucks before Vacation, though during the first week of vacation (Not this week, but next!!!), I'll probabbly be in Starbucks everynight, due to us going to the movies...so look forwards to then! (Soon, I promise!)

The Days Loom Closer, and Starbucks Is A-Glowing

Yes, Christmas is getting ever-closer, and Christmas gifts are the task at hand.

I've decided to get everyone something from Starbucks, the christmas coffee, perhaps some mugs, etc.

But you have to realize, this will be expensive.

I've decided to do this then:

-Anyone married will recieve one (1) gift that both can enjoy. (I.E. Coffee, Appliance)

-Non-married people will get either Mug or Teddy bear. And not a cheap mug, a good one.

So this all will hopefully add up somewhere along the lines of 18 dollars...hopefully.

Now, Friday is tomorow, and Jill is ever closer. (Jill is decribed in post Number One). I hope we can go, but if not, there are other days.

Yes, other days...

Let It Snow, Starbucks Style, Please

As the week slowly creeps by, you must take into account the philosophy of Starbucks:

Artsy, indie, coffee house.

I guess you can say that about them. It's kind of a place where wehn you enter, you'll know the Christmas music won't be your normal, mail order Christmas CD. It's all the songs, Starbucks-ized.

Nope, it's not just any "Let It Snow". It's the very Jazzy edition.

If you decide to buy those little things lining the front counter, you'll see that in your hands is a little bear magnet dressed up for the cold.

So why bother?

Because, Starbucks doesn't do Christmas any regular way.

It has this speacial aura of Christmas.

Why else would I be doing this blog?

Back to Christmas presents.

If I buy everything from Starbucks, because they have exactly what I need, I think it will be moderatly expensive. (But don't forget the half-off for the holidays.)

...I don't think my $18 Starbucks Card will work for this one.

Reign of the 'Bucks at Christmas Time

An artiticle I found online stated that Starbucks's Christmas Mix is extremley popular, and online, it's practicaly un-getable.

Well, that's why I bought it at the store, of course!

It's actually pretty damn good.

I've found out today I might not being seeing Jill anytime soon this Friday, sicne a party may be happening at my place. I painted the cover of the mix tape for her. Is it not obvious how much I like her?

(Oh yes, and I wouldn't really say "tape", more like "CD"...it's all good Christmas music.)

And I've decided to buy my family present's for Christmas from Starbucks.

I am just too nice of a person. Now bow down to me.

No Snow, All Starbucks

Yes, my friends, snow has not fallen yet. Most likely, it will become blizzard-like in the next week, so I had better shut up. I haven't been near Starbucks, but Friday is soon, and we will most definetly be back. I experienced some momentary confusion when I saw peopel on google had hate sites for Starbucks. But hey, Christmas time is the best time, and when I finally get to see Jill at the weeks end, my oh my, will there be a big smile on my face. Today was a bore. It's cold, though.

Starbucks, and Trying to Cope Without

As the weekend looms to a halt, the next Friday until I return to the movies and Starbucks is long away. During the Christmas season, the prices of Starbucks miraculously are cut in half, for the holidays. Now that is what I call Christmas Cheer. Hanging out every Friday at Starbucks does leave me with learning all the Starbucks slaves name. The one that stands out is Jill. A blonde, who, I will ad, looks like Paris Hilton. Not the ho bag, slut junkie, but the...well, prettier one. So I bought two bags of coffee for my parents, possibly to hold over as a Christmas gift for them, but I don't think coffee will work too well as a Christmas gift, especially since I gave it to them on the 3rd of Dec. But still, as I venture into Starbucks during the holiday season, many a things are bound to happen. Like in Nov, someone rolled weed in there...and in the beginning of Dec., I was asked kindly to "Shut the fuck up and get the fuck out" by a fellow patron...thankfully, it wasn't directly to my face...

Moving onwards, Starbucks will be the sight of many happenings during December...so why not see what goes on?
