Happy Birthday Billytea! May you have a year full of interesting creatures.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Birthday to Billytea the Betrothed!!! Here's to a year as wonderful as you are!

Dear Starbucks,
Why is there only 1 of you in a 2 mile radius of where I work? And why is that one closed? WHY WHY WHY??
NSM w/the Love,
Aimee

Anyone good with dream analysis?
Raq, my 2 cent analysis is that its an anxiety dream (those like to recur) that has you powerless and in the wrong place (mine tends to be a french test but I'm in my thirties and why the hell am I in High School). So, what is making you anxious?
At first I thought "In the dream she's unable to get away from her family of origin physically so she wants to get away from something they do or something she does because of them in her life" and it might well have something to do with that...
But then I remembered the state department kerfuffle and the changing of the status of hardship posts in the different countries and how in Iraq and Afganistan you can't bring your family. See? Powerless and in the wrong place in regards to your family (only its the one you built).
I don't see how you can make that concern go away just yet, but maybe you can somehow "confront" the dream by acknowledging what its really about and it will stop.
****
Polter, its a pain to dole out cash when you hardly have any... but didn't you get these gifts over the years? If so, it likely wasn't always easy for the people who paid you. Try and embrace the "I'm a grown up now" aspect of this -- rather than focus on the always fun the 'how the fuck am I going to DO this?!?!?!" part of being the grown up.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILLY TEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Aimee - a certain San Franciscan will mock you for your Starbucks dependency - so be prepared. But she will also introduce you to slamming North Beach coffee.

That's the thing - I have no Starbucks dependency! I would rather get coffee bevrages from a little coffee place. Today, I have no money and a Starbucks gift card and I wanted coffee. And I was thwarted in my plans!!
Can't wait for slammin' North Beach coffee.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I mock with love, at least. And the Starbucks green tea foofy thingy is tasty. But Italian coffee is the bomb-diggety.
{{meara}} Your night doesn't sound fun at all. Sorry, sweetie.
Happy return to work, JZ. Be careful.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BILLYTEA!!!!!

Speaking of mocking with love, I think Jilli locked Pete in a wardrobe. Haven't seen him in awhile.
Or he's eating his paint in an effort to extend a deadline of sorts.
