Holly Humble

My friends call me Holly, or Holly Humble, or any variation of the 2. I've lived in Texas and South Carolina. I love good music, good conversation and above all, my good (understatement of the century) glorious Jesus! I'm honestly really new to this writing thing and I know nothing about blogs...so fasten your seat belts and come with me as I journey through life and the "blogging" experience.

...in the coffee shop lounge

Today I'm working at my coffee shop or coffeehouse. Which ever you wish to call it. Either way...I've had an interesting finding this morning.

As I look in our lounge I see in the back corner a couple. Let's call them the Spanish lovers, because well, they're Spanish and judging from the fact that they've been staring into each other's eyes for approximately an hour, I'd assume they're at least in like with one another. They came in and ordered some pastries that I put on a plate and I've now been waiting about 3 hours to wash that single dish.

Leave the lovers and let me explain another visitor. There's a man that has been in and out of here all morning. He has yet to purchase a single thing. He's very tall so he's not easy to miss, he also drives a moped and parks it right next to the door...also not easy to overlook. Either way, he naps in the lounge with head phones on his ears.

Now for the interesting part, you see the sleeping tall man always naps in the chairs in the back corner of our lounge...exactly where the Spanish lovers are. So as I walk by the lounge, I see the tall man awkwardly napping and the lovers intently gazing into each other's eyes within a foot of one another!

I love when social norms and personal space boundaries are broken!

Also I wonder when people ask me if it's been busy up at the coffee shop if they're asking if I think we're going to go out of business? They give this look of anticipation and then of relief when I tell them it has been busy, or "steady" whatever that means.

Either way...enjoy today.
