If You’ve Been Secretly…

…wondering how the Starbucks Honey Latte is, wonder no more.  I had one Sunday morning (ordered in my typical high maintenance fashion: medium, half caf, non fat, only two pumps of syrup) and it was eh. It mostly tasted like a caramel latte that wasn’t quite right.  I don’t think I’d order it again, but it wasn’t so repugnant that I couldn’t drink it, which is what happened with the green tea latte.

Which reminds me, do you do this as well?  It takes me forever to realize that certain things are just not for me.  Just as it took me about three years to finally get it through my thick skull that I don’t like green tea, I also have about seven million pairs of shoes in my closet that I can’t wear because I refused to admit for years that I can’t wear high heels unless they have an ankle strap.

I guess sometimes reality is just too depressing to face.  Any personality traits that limit the amount of shoes one can buy are best ignored.

Somehow this reminds me of weight loss and my total stupid lack of budgeting as well.  It’s useless to pretend we can eat sausage for breakfast and thin mints for lunch and still hope to lose weight. It’s useless to pretend I can AFFORD to buy new high heels I won’t wear, and yet I do it anyway, and then complain about how we can’t save any money.  Denial isn’t doing me or my ass or my bank account any favors, and yet I persist.

Well, I didn’t mean to write a really depressing post about how I have no money and can’t wear cute shoes, but there you have it.  Also, if you’re observant or know anything about the internet you might already know this, but I am guessing some of you don’t. I wanted to keep it a secret foir various nefarious reasons  but that didn’t feel right to me…anyway, as some of you have noticed, I have a stat counter installed now? Which means when you log on to check my vapid musings about thin mints, I can see you reading.  Just so you know.
