Things That Keep Me Awake at Night – Part 8

Ok – no joke – this actually happened at a WaWa the other day, and I can’t stop thinking about it.

So I was getting my coffee, and I like my WaWa coffee just so, and I was next to another guy who was also getting ready for the day ahead. He was also dressed in work clothes.

I was getting my “Colombian” coffee, and the guy two urns down was getting a cup of decaf coffee.

Ok – personally, at 6:15 a.m., I never understood getting a cup of decaf, but that’s me.

No judgment on my end.

The taste of coffee is enjoyable enough for some, I guess.

Someone might see me getting a cup of Colombian and judge me for not drinking “American” coffee.

So now, I have my coffee, and it’s gonna be a hot day ahead, so I mosey on down to the refrigerator doors and get a big thing of lemonade for the day.

I get my lemonade and then mosey on over to the checkout line.

Yes, for those of you counting, that’s 2 mosies.

And right in front of me, at the self-checkout line, is the guy who got a cup of decaf coffee.

And…..

AND…..

He was getting his cup of decaf coffee AND A MONSTER ENERGY DRINK!!!

Um…….

I have replayed that all day, and yes, it kept me awake at night.

I mean…..

Seriously……

Sure, perhaps one was for him and the other was for someone else.

That could happen.

I should have asked the guy.

But would that have been weird?

Or would it have been weirder to spend the rest of the day wondering why a man drinking decaf at 6:15 a.m. also needed a Monster Energy drink?

Because now I’ll never know.

And apparently, neither will I sleep.
