Since moving to Boulder last August, there have been very few constants in my life. The Cup – my favorite coffee shop in Boulder – is one of them. I’m not quite sure why I love it so much. It’s hard to explain – there’s just something about it. It’s an independent coffee shop – locally owned and all that fun stuff – but, to be honest, I never really care about those things. Heck, I go to Starbucks 5x a week minimum. I guess, it’s just cozy. I come here almost every weekend. Sometimes it’s just for a drink. Sometimes it’s for hours. Today, I’ve been sitting in the same comfortable chair for a few hours. I’ve done some work, leisurely read, twittered, people watched, and just relaxed. It’s funny how I can’t achieve this level of relaxation in my own home. It’s like, because I’m in public, I can just drown myself in the ambiance of the auras of all these people around me….
This picture is from last Sunday, but I could have easily taken it today. It’s of a Bahkti Chai Milkshake and the sun shining off my table in front of The Cup. It makes me happy just thinking about it. It’s Saturdays like this that I just enjoy living here in Boulder…
