I had to look up the word “bewilderment” after I wrote it. true story. it’s like one of those words that nobody really uses a lot, but at random times it just seems like the best word to use. I had to dictionary.com it to make sure I used it correctly. ain’t no shame.
today as I was driving, I saw a dog on the side of the road…happily frolicking…in poop. or a dead animal. I couldn’t tell for sure as I drove by. but it was wagging it’s tail and rolling around over and over. as I passed, I laughed but felt bad for the dog’s owners.
about 50 feet past the dog, there was a cow on the side of the road that had gotten out of its pasture. I would prefer him on my plate. but hey, as long as he stays off the road, I’m OK.
I went to a coffee shop today, one that my cousin and i have had numerous “wow, really?” moments at. so, normally I now just get a decaf coffee or an Americano to keep it simple. but today, I ordered a soy hazelnut decaf latte. because it’s Sunday. and I was craving something sweet. and like I said, it’s Sunday. c’mon. I should’ve known this wasn’t going to end well the moment the barista turned to her co-worker and said “it’s an iced coffee”. … I interrupted her and asked if they were making my latte iced. and she looked at me confused and said, “well yeah, that’s what a latte is - all lattes are iced.” … oh boy. I had to give a polite lesson in what a latte was. to the coffee shop. this was the same place that I once ordered decaf coffee and the barista (a different one) looked at me totally confused and asked, “so…do you like…want that brewed or…?” … ???? over 5 minutes later, I left with milky coffee. sigh. I guess I’ll stick to homemade lattes.
on the flip side, one of our high school girls gave her testimony at church today and it was amazing! I LOVE seeing God work in and thru people. turning ashes into beauty. it’s awesome. we serve a GREAT God who is so much more incomparably better than bad coffee drinks.
