commemorative sketch

i mostly make coffee at home these days so when i decided to splurge on an icey treat this hot, hot day i had a major case of sticker-shock when i went to pay. by the time i added a small tip my medium iced chai latte cost me nearly $5!!!

i decided i better do a quick sketch of the drink to commemorate what is likely the last one of these i'll have in a long, long time. the iced-coffee i made myself at home yesterday was close in quality and probably only cost me around 50 cents... i just can't thoil the extra expense.

i do sometimes wish i had some social-enhancing vice though. smokers and public coffee drinkers have all the fun... you can tell from all the photos of the happy people on the throw-away coffee cups.

(oh yeah... i was away on vacation the last 2 weeks... but i'm back now... um... obviously...)
