arrgghh. it's official. i've become a yuppie. (or is that even what they are called now?)
you want evidence?
today the only productive thing i've done so far is drive to a bookstore, buy a present for someone, using gift cards. and on my way out the door, i went over to the in-store starbucks and bought.... wait for it......a pumpkin spice latte. now i ask you, if that isn't proof of my yuppie status, what is?
truth is, i kinda hate it. i don't really like being a caricature of a person. makes me feel like sometime soon i might start listening to enya or celtic music while driving down the street in my bmw or something.
except the good news is, i don't have a bmw, i have a ford. and i do not like enya or celtic music, or wearing north face jackets. i don't do pilates or practice fung shua, or go running with my partner in matching exercise wear and shades. on top of that i don't live in a loft, and i'm not remodeling a vintage home, and i don't have a dog to take out for walks down a greenway while carrying plastic bags for poop. i don't even have a yoga mat. and i can't really be considered young anymore, plus i forgot for the 6th time to drop the recycling off. so maybe i'm safe.
i did really really really like that pumpkin spice latte though.

Pumpkin spice lattes are the gateway drug to yuppyism. Don't even try to fight it.
