Mocha dreams

Even before I read Remainder, I was an avid collector of coffee shop punch cards. Lately I've felt like a pest as I visit the same place near work every day trying to fill up my card before my tenure at this job is up. ('Nother story, off-blog.)

Anyway, I have a Cargo Coffee punch card. Recently I got an eighth punch with a small regular coffee. The barista, a guy in a hip black wool sweater, commented dryly while handing back my card:

"Just two more punches and all your mocha dreams will come true!"

...and did jazz hands.

Somehow this made me feel silly.

Okay, that's funny! (What's the off-blog story, BTW? Inquiring minds want to know!)
