Our heroine enjoys a decent mocha at a cafe in the state of the Longhorns

I am currently parked at a cafe in Austin by the name of Thunderbird Coffee. Their mochas are quite tasty, and their espresso strong but not too bitter. The baristas are mostly young college students with Apple computers. Indeed, there are many Apples in this cafe. I am one of seven people with iBooks/MacBooks/PowerBooks, and there are only about ten or fifteen people in here (it's a pretty good-sized cafe).

I like this place. In fact, I shall name it mine. *Stabs a blue Lavazza flag in the ground*

FYI, do not trust a cafe in US airports called "Let Them Eat Cake." I don't care if they serve Lavazza espresso, it sucks. They cannot make an espresso to save their miserable, low-fat, soy, mochaccino-drinking LIVES. Plus it has a French theme, and who wants that?

Well, back to my paper on good ol' Sir Walter Scott.

I am tempted to call him Scotty the whole time, and perhaps write in Highland Scot.

Teehee.

If you write it in Scots Tom will totally give you an A. I am so serious.

I MISS YOU.

I approve of your territorial flag with all my heart. Yeasterday I had the grand excitement and anticipation of drinking a Lavazza cappocino, and what did they do? They put it in a paper cup!!! I even said I was going to drink it there. I was bitterly disappointed because Lavazza of course is not supposed to have a papery taste. I need to visit you guys again. I hereby invite myself

You should have DEMANDED a proper cup (a proper cup of coffee from a proper copper coffee pot!) or else stormed out angrily.

Of course you are invited. You may even drink out coffee. If you are especially nice, we may let you pet the cat!
