Straight to it:
The fresh fruit/veggie juices are AMazing! Go for the donuts but definitely leave with a juice! Do it! You and your hair and your skin and your body will thank me for it! I promise!
That being said... What insanity is this?!? Healthy juice from a donut/burrito/snack shop? Yes. That is exactly what it is! I wish I could claim to have found this obscure spot for the Street Cred but, alas, I owe the weird dude next door a big thank you. Herein lies the issue (which, in the big scheme of things is truly a non-issue), he's kind of a weird mix of tech nerd, bar aficionado, high school football star, super charismatic- ad nauseum, suspiciously generous, intelligent, and educated (so he says), great hair (smh, Great Hair, shh.. don't tell him), and basically your all-around-good-guy with just a splash of alcoholism and a visceral desire to keep people happy and at peace. But who are we kidding with those last two; he is in good company. So, the issue.. yes, back to that. He and my baby girl, they are in love. He's an older dude. A harmless, "young 30" as my bff put it into perspective for me. My girl is my old-soul turning 21 and, I get it, he's a real charmer and the whole effing world digs his vibe! Not excluding this Yelper! So what's the real prob? SMDH who the hell knows. So as I sit here on my patio and sip my red Tastio juice, I find myself thinking, He buys us these GREAT juices for breakfast, chats us up between home-office-woes, he looks at my girl and I can see, he really SEES her. And all I wanna do is slap her in the head as she swoons and then slap myself in the head for swooning at her swooning. And, well, here's the hard truth, she's been MY ride-or-die for 21yrs. It's hard to let that go or I guess, in this case, hard to make room because they actually like my company and sometimes I make them laugh or cringe or both and we have fun and stupid stuff like that. In the end, I'm being supportive. I'm enjoying Tastio's tasty juice. I really am excited for them and, yeah, sure, a little suspicious, and definitely waiting to hear back from the private investigator that he's actually a Mob Boss Woman on the run from El Salvador after his sex change! Or something equally fantastic! Meanwhile, I'll keep enjoying the juice and good convo and laughs. But for sure, I'll update y'all if he pops up on America's Most Wanted!
