Day 16.

Another brilliant day at the coffee shop. Seriously. Lila is so adorable. She brought her polaroid camera in this morning, and came to open with Jack and Sullivan and me. It was too cute. She took a picture of every customer that came in. Grabbed them around the waist and snapped a picture of their tired face next to her bright awake one.
She has a photo album made up of pictures of her and strangers. It's actually really good.
And I had no idea, but turns out, Jack taught her everything she knows about photography. He went to school for it. 2 years. Of art and photography. Imagine that. He's just full of never ending surprises.

Total mistakes: 58
Total customers: 79
Lila is so distracting.

This was such a good week. And not just because Lila brought the 3 of us a whole raspberry rhubarb pie this morning.
It really was.
Sullivan is taking me to the park tomorrow. We're supposed to feed ducks. And then he plans on going to the pie place where Lila works (SliceMeLove) for lunch.
I think that sounds perfect.
I need some Sullivan time.

Lately he's been quieter than usual. I found him just staring at Lila and me today. Playing with his fork in his pie. While Jack laughed one of his positively infectious loud laughs at some joke he'd just said.
(Jack and Lila have the most amusing sense of humors.)
Sullivan almost seemed sad. Distracted. I asked him if anything was wrong.
"No," he said. And smiled sweetly.
But he was still downcast.
Maybe it's because he and I still haven't been working well together. I love him, but there are days when I just want to strangle him. His communication in the coffee shop is so random. To concentrate, he's so quiet. There are no words going in my ears with the conversation of the customers. There's no one talking to me. So we both make iced lattes when there should only be one made. I leave the blueberries on he wrong counter and he doesn't ask where I put them. He just pretends he doesn't need them.
I want to fix this.
Maybe I should talk to Jack about it.
He and Sullivan work like they're the same person.
I won't lie.
I get jealous of that.

I want to work perfect with my boyfriend.
Now I should go to sleep. This gorgeous week's not over yet. And I'm so excited for tomorrow.
I'm thinking green knee high boots.

xo, Delia.
