Stormy Storms/Toasted Graham Latte
Storms get a bad rap. And... that's probably because everyone fears them. They muck crap up. They make life miserable. They make people grumpy. They break things. True. All of this true. And even inner storms as in bad moods in people also wreak havoc.
But... maybe they also create opportunities for things to be reborn... or they create opportunity for change to enter our lives. Maybe they bring people together after the storm to work together to rebuild.
Glass half full? Maybe.
But maybe they just create a little humor... an excuse to laugh in this crazy life... even in the face of uncertain destruction.
Today I found the hurricane Joaquin meme/hurricane track photo.
It made me laugh WAY more than I should have. I literally laughed out loud at work this morning when I saw it.
Here's a link to an article containing the photo in case the photo doesn't show up: https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20151001/long-island-city/nypd-tweets-hurricane-joaquin-path-map-with-photos-of-joaquin-phoenix
Who knows what sort of track this hurricane will take, or what things will come from it. Perhaps bad, perhaps something good will come out of it. Time will only tell. That's with most things in life. Sometimes things that seem fantastic... end up being terrible in the end... and sometimes things that seem terrible end up being fantastic and becoming the best opportunities.
That's why "good" or "bad" can't really be determined until after the fact.
Speaking of good or bad, I'm trying out the Toasted Graham Latte at Starbucks. I'm a fan. It's pretty delicious. So... I'll give it a thumbs up.
It's a bit on the sweet/milky/frothy side... but I don't mind. I'm definitely about half way through and not regretting the purchase at all.
Usually I enjoy the raw coffee flavor, but lately I've been really into lattes. Also really into margaritas. I don't know why. But I just really enjoy them lately. So if you want my recommendation after a long day at work? Get yourself a margarita and then go get a toasty graham latte after. You'll be feeling mighty fine. And then take a gander at the Joaquin hurricane meme and have a laugh. Because... there are always storms ahead. But sometimes you just have to enjoy the small pleasures in life and sit back and have a laugh, and a Toasted Graham Latte... or a margarita.
Tomorrow will be another day.
