At Home At Starbucks

elastic waistband
society norms dead
wearing pajamas at Starbucks
no one stares
or cares
that I brought my own blanket too
as it is sometimes cold in here
a big change from home where
I will go to nap in an hour

I race home so I can get into my PJ's, not wearing them in public usually although we do have PJ day at school sometimes.

To be comfortable in one's own skin (or PJs:)) is a treasure. Great write!

A fun time to be in your jammies... I love dinosaur ones and birds. Too fun. I am hooked on their expensive coffee. But when I indulge I can write for 24 to 36 hours straight. I need to know the secret of the elixir... My poor pot at home is just an apprentice... I need a master coffee maker... lol... hugs. Ann

I do not like Starbuck's coffee. It is way too strong for me but so many do, and they like to linger.

Me thinks if PS was invited to your shindigs, we’d fill up the place. A warm reception :)

You would be welcome too. We could spill over into my yard for days.
