I am medicating myself with an apple martini right now. I had a bit of a traumatizing situation at work today.
I was minding my own business, using the restroom, when another person came in and slammed herself against the door to the stall I was using in an attempt to open it (I’m assuming she didn’t realize I was in there). Well, she slammed it with such force that the lock came undone and the door smacked me square in the head!! I was in such shock, I screamed “Excuse me, you’re hitting my head!” I’m sure the person was surprised too, and yelled back, “It was an accident,” and swiftly left the restroom. I have no idea who my attacker was!
I was totally embarrassed by this when it first happened. I had a killer headache and wanted to ask to go home early, but I felt really stupid explaining why I needed to leave. So I just sat there and suffered. But then I realized that I needed to share my story because, people, you need to be on guard at all times! Even when peeing!!
OK. Here’s the part where I reveal what a total bitch I am and why I probably deserved to get assaulted in the restroom:
A few weeks ago Starbucks was offering these really cool shirts for free. They are limited edition (only 10,000 were made)! Basically, you could go on the Starbucks site and create an image depicting your favorite Starbucks beverage. If you happened to log on between like 10:00 a.m. PST and 10:02 a.m. PST, you might have been lucky enough to get through and get your free shirt. If not, you could get an icon or computer wallpaper image of your drink. I found this out when the promotion first started and managed to score a shirt on my first try! I was going to spread the word and blog about it but, after consulting with the husband, decided to keep this little treasure of an opportunity to myself so as not to lessen my chances of getting more shirts. Well friends, I happened to end up with a total of three shirts!! I got the first in the mail today and I love it!

The others are going on eBay. There are a few up for auction now, and they’re going for a pretty penny.
I personally thought this was a genius promotion on Starbucks’ part, but folks on the Starbucks Gossip blog disagree with me. I don’t really care, cause I can’t wait to wear mine out tomorrow!
