Thanks, Starbucks!

I just posted, but I forgot to mention something that made my day a little awesomer today: I went to Starbucks to buy a tall coffee, and instead walked out with an Americano. They had run out of filters and therefore couldn't brew coffee, and I was lucky enough to come at the RIGHT TIME to get a more expensive, smooth-tasting coffee for the price of a regular coffee. Right on! No complaints here.

That particular Starbucks location is renowned for its customer service and acts of kindness. When a car was rear-ended across the street, someone from Starbucks ran to the scene of the accident to give free coffee to the stressed-out folks involved. I love the idea that a cup of coffee can bring people together and help ease a bad situation.
