Start of the Costa Diaries

Haven't posted on here for a while! But, I've started a journal that I've kept with me throughout day to day life... And when I'm bored, or there's something interesting to write about - I write.
So, because I've been working quite a few days a week, I've been costa a fair few times so I thought I'd start this thing called the 'something diaries' so wherever I have sat and wrote, it can contribute toward that... Like the 'costa diaries', something silly like that.

I have a couple of days worth of costa stories, so I may as well begin here;

I'm sat in Costa. It seems to be my usual ritual before work at the moment. Getting here half hour earlier than planned has it's perks. Vanilla latte with a banana and pecan breakfast loaf, or occasionally a white chocolate and raspberry muffin. (No this isn't an advertising for Costa) For once, it's not too busy - usually you have to fight your way to a table and I always feel bad if I sit at a four seater when it's just me. Always looking like a loner, especially when writing in this journal. Today, I thought was going to like any usually day... But no. Today is the day I decided to sneeze with a mouthful of latte in my mouth, resulting in a waterfall effect over the table. Luckily, I was behind the counter where it's out of the way.. So I'm hoping nobody saw. Still incredibly embarrassing, so thank god for napkins! What can I say? I'm smooth.
 It's the following day, same routine - yet today, I've not had any food. I always think that a barista would be a fun job to do, always on the move, always busy and always talking to customers - I like that. It's like when I work at the shop, I love the serving part and wrapping of gifts... It keeps you occupied. There's a chubby baby in here with her grandad. This is why I love people watching, you can come across some interesting and funny characters! This baby is looking at me, smiling and then puts her head down and scowls at the floor. I must look funny or something. Random stranger smiling at her, weirdo.
