She got me into trouble this morning

With her Mona Lisa smirk and mermaid webbed hands, this green minx single-handedly got me into trouble this morning.

“But how can the caffeine chick get you into trouble?” I hear you innocently ask.

Easily, actually.

I was accosted by an anti-capitalist this morning on my way to work. I walked out of Starbucks with my Grande vanilla latte and this little old man in an apron walked up and started scolding me. “How dare you walk around with that in your hand, you should be ashamed. And you look educated so you should know better. It’s Americans like you that are the downfall of this country.”

I didn’t catch the first bit because had my earphones in and music was blaring through my frontal lobe.

Nonetheless, I caught the rest of it and responded, “No sir, it’s uneducated Americans like YOU who are the downfall of this country, and for the record I’m foreign. And educated. Furthermore, sir, how dare YOU speak to me in that tone and manner. Good day.” And I strolled off. Rather shaken I might add.

Thanks green lady for giving me caffeine and an argument in the morning.
