tomorrow i break my coffee fast

at peet's, no less. the nearest good coffee place i know of is in santa clara but that's a drive for the both of us.

what does one order at a coffee place to prolong conversation? i normally drink espresso, but that takes about 15 seconds to consume. bah! well, at least i'll have something to talk about. i can get all "comic book guy" on the person pulling shots. "oh. oh. oh! they did NOT just do that! cold portafilter! No tamp! worst. shot. ever!"
