Tired Tuesday

Today my right arm hurts. Thanks to the lovely Starbucks marizola machines or whatever the name is. Since I transferred up here, I've been working at a store with a manual espresso machine. These machines are good because you can completely control the way the espresso is pulled and make the drink taste fabulous. But the problem is that depending on the weather or the machine's mood that day, you may have to tamp down the grinds with all your might. Today was one of the days that you think your arm might fall off because you're whamming the tamper down so hard. Call me a wimp, but I like the manual machines.
