Im at my parents house using the computer, I still don't have the internet at my house :( very frustrating and it doesnt help that this computer is slower than the Dickens!!
Anyway about my parents, love em' but I can't spend that much time here because I don't like all their negativity and fighting. I think sometimes the negative stuff comes from me, but when Im here I just don't feel right, my Dad is kinda in his own world and my mom worries and stuff. They just don't seem happy together.
Im going to be starting a new job on Oct. 3rd. Im the Manager of a new cafe and book store. It's called Legacy books and Cafe. It hasn't even opened yet. So I have to hire staff and get everything going.I hate it that I have to leave the roasting job. The problem was, I couldn't make enough money working there. The owner of the company is very good guy, it's a small company but he couldn't pay me what I needed to make to pay my bills. Im not mad at him about it, I know he would have giving me a raise if he could. Im a bit upset about the whole thing really, because it will be difficult for them without me especially going into the season.
I'm glad you got the coffee. I wish I could send you more sooner but it's bloody expensive. Did you like the Ethiopian? Be honest Madam Edwards! Some people don'tlike African coffees because of the Acidity, but I think the yirgacheffe is nice because the acidity is vibrant and complex. It has a deep and rich bidy like an Indonesian coffee and roast a little darker than it should for that region. Did you know that coffee was first discovered in Ethiopia. I have so much to say to you, but my mind is just going in allot of different directions. By the way, do you like Lily Allen? i like her stuff and The Ting Tings. Great music comes out of the UK. and there's a girl in Taunton that's not bad either.
sweet dreams
It's still raining here by the way, That's unusually for Dallas. This time of year is always hot and more hot and when you think it can't be any hotter, it gets hotter. Roasting is a beast in heat like this, because a roaster sucks in all the air and a it's over 400 degrees standing next to roaster for 5-6 hours.
I checked out Whittards, we don't have that here, it's seems like they have some some nice stuff there, did you find what you were looking for? I have never had any of there coffee either. question: Is coffee expensive over there? here in the states it varies obviously by what origin and where you buy it. For example, at Starbucks, a pound of Sumatra (472 grams, for you Brits) is $10.65 Our coffee is a little bit more expensive. Our Colombia one pound is $10.95. What about over there?
have a good day.. Go Taunton Cricket Club!
