disaster...

by

do you every just wake up and think: "jeez, i can't believe that happened..."? me too. like this morning. just in case you were not aware, i am working at this little place in redlands called augies. when i was in school that was the place i loved to read and write papers. those days are over now,  i spend my time on the other side of the counter these days:) i started learning the process of steaming milk at work. it looks something like the photo to the left:


  it was a disaster...i feel like that is an understatement so let me explain. last night i was at work and my boss let me steam soy milk for the first time. it is a tad harsher than the normal stuff but i figured why not. so i was steaming and when i was going to turn the best off (the steamer) i turned the nob the wrong way! milk went flying everywhere. the photo to the right does not capture the greatness of the accident... 
and honestly i felt like this:
There was a group from an unnamed recreational location present, tons of younger people, and well, there was lots of laughing. i could hear it when i went into the restroom to clean up and honestly, i was devastated. i guess perhaps it was humorous but looking back i am still not seeing the humor in it. normally, i could care less about receiving such a reaction but last night, i cared a bit. i am beginning to wonder if i will ever get it right.
today, i am going to finish a book. it was written by richard wurmbrand. he was tortured by communist for staying true to his faith. he was romanian.
when i finish this one, i will start a series of j. d. salingers. beginning with franny and zoey.
today will be a good day. i will get over last night.
yes.
