Warm coffee.

I am a coffee wench! I am now a "partner" at Starbucks. (That's what they call the little people.) I set out on a mission to find A) income B) insurance and C) fun. I might have gotten all three. We'll have to see. Starbucks has a surprisingly (to me) good benefits package, insuring all emp...partners who work at least 240 hours per quarter, or about 25 per week. And yes, I can drink all the coffee I want! I even get to bring home 1lb per week, or a box of tea. You know, I didn't even ask about the wage! I did look up the averages for Starbucks though, and it's about what I figured it would be. Insurance is the main priority right now.

It's also warm in here! Yes, the furnace guy was here this morning. We don't need a new furnace, thank God! But ours should probably be replaced in the next few years. In the meantime we are replacing the draft inducer motor for a few hundred bucks.

I am feeling....strange. I have this constant sort of chest pain, like a soreness. I am 99.3/4% sure it is stress and tension. I have no indications of anything more sinister than that but I am generally uneasy, what with the liver being right there and all. I am going with the water/relaxing/deep breathing/just chill because it's all going to be ok plan. Hey, I have a job, which will come with health insurance in 90 days, and a warm house! These are two things I did not have yesterday morning.
