I no longer work at the Coffee Bean and Tea leaf. In fact, today as I entered my employee numbers into the cash register a screen popped up that stated simply, "employee terminated."
No more entering "half-caff," "half-powder," "no foam," "no sugar added," modifications. No more calling out names that the cashier entered wrong like "Michelle," instead of, "Michael." No more making Lee's large no-sugar added blended mocha, extra thick, with a domed lid and the extra inside. No more making Dana's large lavendar mint tea latte with one scoop of vanilla. No more Suzie, with her kind southern accent, who brings in her dad and sits outside with him while he smokes a cigar.
Then again, no more weird morning guy who comes in and takes his own ice from our ice-maker.
Anyway.
It's strange when things are no more. Soon living in this house will be no more.
It will happen as long as we live until everything that can be will be no more, and all else will be forever.

this makes me really sad..... why do things always change and why do we always have to move on? It's good I know, but so hard.
