A Bad Moon Rises at Starbucks

Wednesday night I pulled up to the Starbucks drive-thru again, hoping against hope that Angelic Voice would be there…

“Hiiiiiiiiiii, welcome to Starbucks!” What can I get for you?”

Oh yeaaaaahhh….

While I ordered hot chocolate my MP3 stereo was blasting Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” a great background song I thought for what I was about to attempt. :naughty:

“Don’t stop believin’,
Hold on to the feelin’”!

I pulled up and finally saw her, her hair tied up and revealing a cute, soft face as she put my drink together. I grinned and leaned over to crank up Journey.

Except I accidentally hit the wrong button and the track skipped to CCR’s “Bad Moon Rising” instead.

“I see a bad moon a-rising!
I see trouble on the way!”

SH*&!!!!!!!!!!!!

I frantically tried to get it back when Angelic Voice opened the window to hand me my drink.

“Oh thanks! Hi listen, ummm…” I began awkwardly.

But she had already slammed the window shut.

“Don’t go around tonight,
Well it’s bound to take your life,
There’s a bad moon on the rise!”

:hang:

linc, why do you set yourself up for these things? :clap:

why don’t you try to chat her INSIDE the coffee shop instead? a girl would not be very much inclined to holding up the line at a drive-thru.

good luck on your next attempt!

btw, saw the review on woobie’s side. how on the money is she?

You are beginning to be like the age old saying…
If it weren’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any luck at all! LOL

Don’t give up! But, I do think you need to be inside the store

@To all: Meh, she was too young for me anyway, which is why I didn’t bother actually going in. And before you start calling me a perv here, I didn’t know how young she was until I finally saw her face, so nyah. :tongue:

@claire: It’s like she installed a camera in my head. :wideeyed:

@ConsrvYank1: My luck really is that bad. Or… you could say it was really that good because I avoided what would have been a major headache, you know, the kind of headache that happens when a 30 year old dates a teenage girl? :whistle:

Try not to touch yourself while waiting, Linc. That excuse about accidentally switching to another station is just lame, mate.

Oh, Linc. What a shame that she slammed the window in your face! But yeah, if she was that young, it was for the best. I’m sure there’s a girl just for you out there somewhere. Keep looking!
