Since it's summer time - every morning (or, almost every morning) I wake up and find my way to Dunkin' Donuts... I order a nice large french vanilla iced coffee with extra skim and two splenda..
(my guilty pleasure #sorryimnotsorry)
Usually this little baby costs me $2.38 and I always have my coins and cash ready to go - who wants to be that person that holds up the rest of the line trying to count their pennies? NOT me. So today I woke up at a nice late hour of 10:45AM (a girl needs her beauty sleep.. ha) and wandered to Dunkin'... and of course! My favorite guy was working.
We usually chat about jewelry (he doesn't like to flaunt his style through flashy clothes - he likes wearing fun necklaces and rings..Yes. I am this good of friends with the people who work there) and how much he has to work this week. But today he told me ALL about the wedding he's attending on Friday night.. and how he plans on getting "wasted beyond wasted" hahahaha ONLY I would meet these people.
Regardless.. I was standing in line, chatting with him with my $2.38 in hand.. as I notice he's spending an extra long time on the cash register and me being me... well, I start to feel awkward.
NEXT THING YOU KNOW: he says that my order today will be 99 cents.
Well hot damn. My new best friend likes me enough to give me his discount!
And THAT, my friends, is how you know it's a good morning.
On another note, a just as guilty pleasure note:
(because, yes, it is summer and I'm taking pride in the fact that I currently have NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING to do with my life)
This goes out to all with iPhones (Love my BBerry users, but I just don't think you have this.)
I know we all pass the tabloid section of Target or the grocery store and think "If only I had the three dollars I already spent on iced coffee to buy a trashy magazine!"
Or don't we all love it when a friend tries to show off her celeb gossip and you can quickly retort with a "Oh, yah I already knew Justin and Selena were seen having some major PDA at an NBA game."
Well this is the greatest thing to hit the iPhone since WordsWithFriends..
(My WWF name is Aeskel1 PLAY ME PLAY ME PLAY ME!)
the People Celeb News app.
This gem will be the best two dollars you EVER spend, I PROMISE.
I'll be honest.. I lay in my bed every morning and you know, do the usual: roll around in my covers, make a couple animal noises, lament the fact that all my friends are busy, and check out the newest People stories and pictures.. duhz.
Personal favorite part of this app? The daily StartTracks photo albums.. I just can't get enough of the precious Reese Witherspoon or Leo DiCaprio and Blake Lively (How precious would their children be!?).
All in all.
If you haven't made best friends with the workers at your local Dunkin' Donuts: Get on it.
If you don't already own the People app: It will change your life.
Now go out and have a lovely lovely Wednesday!
Until next time friends,

How funny! Sounds like it pays off to make friends with the employees! Glad you had a good day :)
Hehee, I love it! My family has some restaurants we frequent and whenever we go we're treated like royalty--free appetizers, deserts, etc!
Did you make this up or are Leo and Blake really together? Must know immediately! Because yes they would have some seriously be-aut-iful babies.
haha i love this post. i completely agree
Also, I have a giveaway going on here for a $50 headband from Smathers and Branson if you're interested :)
Perez Hilton is my drug of choice. I can't stop!
I seriously NEED this app. I freakin love stalking celebs (just bought the latest US Weekly mag yesterday). Blake Lively and Leo - so cute! Thanks for this post :)
so many things to comment on I don't even know where to begin:
a) LOVE the people news app. It drains my battery every day and I don't mind in the slightest. I read it all the time.
b) I was in Osterville over MDW...and go there all summer. I'm the mayor of Fancy's on foursquare (not ashamed...haha)
c) I'm judging by your twitter you go to school in Indiana...which is coincidentally where I'm from. ROCK ON.
d) we live in Providence now and I work on the south coast. It's HOT right now.
ok, that's comment overload, but there you have it ;)
so happy to have found your blog! xoxo {av}
Hahahah, omg. I loved this post. We have the same sense of humor, except you're funnier. We'd probably be besties in real life. And we'd bond over DD Vanilla Iced Coffee mmm

Hilarious! Thanks for stopping by my blog. So sweet of the guy to give you the 99cent coffee ;) He will probably have your order memorized soon. And, I am so downloading that People app! Did you see Jelena at the CMT awards? More pda!
Love the Dunkin Donuts story! I wouldn't have the energy to get up every morning to get it!
You are living the dream!! I tell my friends all I want to do is sleep in, get D&D and play tennis.
I just got an iPHone 2 days ago and needed app suggestions. Definitely going to get People. Would love to hear your other favs!
