Just a few days ago, I was returning home from yet another luke-warm family Thanksgiving. I was driving the same boring way, through the same boring traffic, passed the same boring things. It was late, and dark out as I drove, and the dinner and same family drama weighted me down. I decided to get off at the next rest area and stretch, make sure I was awake for the final leg of my trip home.
I was pleasantly surprised as I pulled off the turnpike into the rest stop, a giant Starkb*cks sign hung over it. I knew instantly what I was doing, getting a
venti caramel macchiato
!
As I pulled in and parked, I realized I needed to go to the little girl's room in the worst way. So I grabbed my phone, my purse, my keys, locked my car and headed in. I was unhappily surprised to see an OUT OF ORDER sign blocking my way, damn I need to pee !!!! Oh wait, I see a sign, there is another ladiesroom around the back!! I hurried outside, hearing the loud click clack as my heels tapped on the hard tile floor. I found the bathroom out in the parking lot, dozens of huge tractor trailers littered this area of the rest stop parking lot, but grateful to pee I would be and went inside the ladiesroom.
