Roude Review: Welcome to my humble little blog!

Welcome to my humble little blog!

Some of you may know this (and others are about to find out), but I have been a wanna-be blogger for quite some time. I would hear friends talking about their blogs or saying, "man, I want to blog about that" and I'd always mentally make a note to start blogging myself. The problem was that I just never got around to taking action.

Here it is. This is my blog, and it's quite rudimentary at this point, but I hope that it becomes more and more profound and fascinating as time goes on. I'm also realistically expecting about 4-5 people to actually read it, so it won't be written with a massive audience in mind!

The main reasons I want to blog:

To record and be able to reflect upon the events that take place in our family's life, both milestones and everyday shenanigans that I'd think I'd remember but would promptly forget if not documented.
I'd like my kids to be able to read my blog someday and know what their life was like when they were little, the things their mom pondered, reveled in and struggled with.
To keep those family and friends updated on our family's goings-on that care to know more than just the major stuff posted on Facebook.

There will most certainly be more blog posts to come, I'm just really excited to have started (all thanks to my friend Lori who is a super-blogger and is sitting right next to me as I prepare to post my first blog...she said I can't leave her house without my first post!)

OK, I have nothing profound left to add.....ENJOY MY BLOG & PICS!!!

Things That Annoy Baristas (at least THIS one!)

Any soy beverage ordered extra hot and without foam. That is damn near impossible! If you even look at soy it begins to get frothy. Again, you can order whatever you'd like, just know that this is annoying and there isn't a barista alive that would LOVE to make this beverage.
Do not order a cheeseburger and/or fries thru the Starbucks drive-thru. You think you're being clever. We think you're a tool.
At a drive-thru Starbucks (or any drive-thru, for that matter, but I've only worked at Starbucks so that's what I'll speak to), please have some method of payment ready when you get to the window. You get to the window, complain about how slow the line was, then attempt to locate your wallet so you can pay. You've had 3-5 minutes to do this on the way to the window. Why do you think the line's slow? Because of idiots like you.
When a car approaches the speaker in the drive-thru to order and immediately shouts, "Hello?" Give us a chance to greet you. Starting off like that makes us want to give you decaf.
