I had a dream last night that Mark got a call to a church in Colorado and he told me that we were moving there...I looked at him, in my dream, and said "What about Mosaic? What about all the planning, work and connections that have been made?" He looked at me and said, "I'm bored. I need a new challenge. We've done it already." Its funny, because I woke up with this horrible feeling this morning and even though I know it was just a dream - I've been kind of melancholy this morning as I work in Mosaic...
For all my complaining about this place - and I do complain sometimes - I still love it...I love the families that come in - Karen and Scott were in this morning with their kids and their parents from Port Orchard...the parents from the Chinese school that meets upstairs on Saturdays...a couple chatting on the stage, maybe a new romance budding...I met Mike this morning who works for both Amazon and is also an usher at the 5th Avenue Theatre...Chris and Robert both came in for their "regulars" (20oz White Chocolate Mocha and 12oz Americano with room respectively)...Tammy and her "small mocha" that thankfully didn't taste like a dog's butthole to her today...a Demitasse room full of kids and their parents...and at 12:30 we have a flute recital...it really is an amazing thing to see and I know you probably get tired of hearing about it - but I'm so excited and happy to be here, on this corner of the world, a barista for the kingdom...so maybe when I was asleep, it was a nightmare an now I'm living the dream....
