Starbucks is the Devil

So they've opened a Starbucks in Winnipeg Square, which is about a 5 minute walk from where I work. This is good for my taste buds but BAD for my wallet. In fact, I'm convinced that Starbucks has added tiny amounts of cocaine to thier vanilla syrup. Either that or I just have zero will power.

Anyway I'm up to 2 cups a day. I try to go one Grande and one Tall but lately it's been more like one Grande and one Venti. So I'm basically spending like 8 dollars a day. But I love the black tea latte.

I think I will blame Laura for introducing me to the joys of Starbucks, because until this year I always viewed Starbucks as an evil American empire that was trying to over throw Tim Horton's (which has already over thrown Robin's Donuts). But Tim's is too far away (aka the other side of Winnipeg Square).

Note to Self: Don't take Erin with you the next time you go to Starbucks. She will only try to prevent you from enjoying a full venti of sweet delicious cocaine... I mean coffee
