I have seen these virtual coffee dates around the blog world, which are super cute but also kinda weird. I mean, if you want to meet for coffee, hit me up! Isn’t weird that I’m eavesdropping on your life?
But, today I invite you to meet me for coffee…
I’d text you that I’m running late because I’m on Mexican Monican time.
Then, I’d rush in and order a Venti iced coffee. I’d ask if they have almond milk, they won’t, so I’ll use milk and sugar.
And I’d tell you…
After hanging out with Leah yesterday I want to do a deodorant cleanse. And get some chickens. And become a hippie and move up to Ventura. Seriously, “deodorant cleansing” is a thing and I’m going to do it. But tell me if I smell okay?
My foot hurts – do you think it’s a stress facture? Want to rub it? <Shows you foot here>
Do you want to share a cinnamon roll? (If you say “no” I won’t get it, but I’ll be sad about it the whole rest of this conversation. And I’ll probably get one to-go thinking I’d share it with someone else, but I’ll eat it all on the way home and blame you on some level.)
I can’t squat when I’m drunk and this becomes a problem in Las Vegas. Drunk girls pee on the seat, hello. How can we work on this as a team?
I would invite you over to watch the Canelo – Mayweather fight. He reminds me of my brother so much! Another redheaded Mexican #Unicorn
Anyway. Next time we should meet for Happy Hour…

I would love a Monican coffee date, I would say sure to the cinnamon roll, and then be sure you get the bigger half. 😉
Hey want to go apple picking with us today?? We could do it virtually…I think they have fresh apple cider. I am not a big fan but you and V could get some. I will get a fresh donut.
runeatrepeat says
I wish I could! I’ve always wanted to go apple picking!!! Mostly because I’ve heard there are cider donuts. Can you confirm?
LosingLindy says
Yes, and they were warm and delicious!
Emily says
I only wear hippie deodorant, so basically you can usually smell a hint of something natural if you sniff around really hard… and sometimes not so hard like when I am all sweaty and gross after a long run. I am a medical professional, and am always trying to get people to put the antiperspirant down. I also think chickens are awesome, but only if you take care of them, not me.
I love this post about halfs, and it has me wondering what I was thinking signing up for the Portland Marathon… couldn’t I have just done a few halfs and called it good? Oh, no. I have to be an over-achiever, and rest assured, I will remember why halfs are better when mile 18 hits. Any time I am on a run that hits near or over 20 miles, I remember why 13.1 miles is such a wonderful distance. Mainly because I can run that and still feel like a normal human.
Oh, and by the way, who cares what strange pirate hookers think about you or say? Them bishes don’t know you.
Josie says
Yay Canelo! Can’t wait to see the fight tomorrow. 😉
Katie M says
So cute! One of my favorite of your posts…. And I’ve had coffee AND happy hour with you, you’re not that bad.
Meghan says
It’s call a “shewee” and every girl needs to get one!!
Chloe@SearchingForAHealthierLife says
Happy Hour is better than a coffee date in my opinion… there just seems to be more rubbish come out my mouth during alcoholic beverages than when I’m drinking coffee 😀
Lauren B says
HAHA!! I am totally the same with the cinnamon roll thing…
Nicole says
I’m totally down for a virtual coffee…..can I make my drink Irish? (so it’s kinda happy hour, kinda coffee time?)
becca says
I get your blog in email form and so rarely have the opportunity to comment, but this one just made me lol and I thought how much fun it would be to actually know you!! Maybe you could help me be a real runner (I’m more of a consistently fast walker 😛 ) and I would always go halfsies on a cinnamon roll! 🙂 🙂
David @ Captain Speedypants says
That’s hilarious. Following your blog I learn more about you than I probably want to. 🙂
runeatrepeat says
Ha! True.
anna says
MAYWEATHER is going to CREAM Canelo!!!!!! Mayweather is the BEST! I love that you are into boxing too!
Ashley says
I would NEVER say no to the cinnamon roll. . . just FYI.
Kelly @ Live Green Chic says
I would definitely split the cinnamon role. Not only would it be delicious, but it would distract from any odor caused by the deodorant cleanse!
Emily @ Emily Rocks the Road says
Yes, happy hour works better for me. You’ll notice I almost flaked on our virtual coffee date because I forgot last night.
Anyway, my foot hurts too. Let’s rub each others’ feet. That’s not weird, is it?
You needn’t fear, I will split the cinnamon roll with you. Always.
Kari @ KeepingupwithKarielle says
I LOVE THIS! I have the whole hippie idea sometimes too. I get so jealous when I see the cute little girls with the long messy waves with the cute headband around their forehead. GRRRRR. Oh well. One day! LOL!
Melissa @TryingtoHeal says
You don’t have to do a deoderant cleanse to move to ventura and be a hippy. just move to ventura! I need my friends around!
Jessica R @ fromthekitchentotheroad says
I really want to be a hippie sometimes, too. I tell my husband all the time that I want a farm but we both know we don’t want to put in the work. There are plenty of farms here in Wisconsin that I can mooch off of instead.
Karla @ Foodologie says
Omm I’m pretty much hoping this is how wine/book club will go… but better because there will be wine involved. And we’ll replace cinnamon rolls with cheese or something. Sound good?
kindle says
i see you blog for the first time a,d i find it very amazing.

Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
I hope your foot feels better!! It is probably just one of the many pains runners face day to day 🙂 I feel like I always have some sort of pain! And a a cinnamon roll sounds delicious right now!
Kim says
I’m far more in on the happy hour thing than coffee!! And, now I’m going to try to squat when I’m drunk (I try not to get completely drunk but you know…).
Natasha Pattison says
HAHAHA i love this! and i would neverrrrr say no to a cinnamon roll.. butttt maybe to rubbing your feet…
Thanks for making me laugh this morning!
runeatrepeat says
🙂
Nicole @ Pink Elephant on Parade says
I wouldn’t say no to the cinnamon roll. Ever. And I think I have shin splints *stick leg on table and starting rubbing right where it hurts.*
runeatrepeat says
We’d be quite the pair at the coffee shop showing each other our ailments.
sally @ sweat out the small stuff says
I’ll let you in on a secret. My dog is named after your beloved coffee establishment=)
His name is Duncan (just didn’t like the spelling Dunkin) And he is the color of my iced coffee (I use a lot more milk =)
Virtual coffee tawk…..I like!
runeatrepeat says
I love it!
Jackie says
I hope your foot feels better. I had two stress fractures in my feet this year and they sucked. Stop running before it’s too late. I wish I would have listened to my body!
runeatrepeat says
Oh no! Are you all better now?
Kelsey says
I would say yes to sharing a cinnamon roll, because sharing is better than having one by yourself, but secretly I would want the whole thing to myself and kind of begrudge you for being so good, but thanking you because I know the whole thing would be bad for my waistline.
This is a cute blog post idea, might have to give it a go myself 🙂
Sarah says
I almost wrote one of those coffee date posts yesterday and then realized I didn’t want to share anything particularly interesting with the interwebs. Guess I’ll just have to stick to real life friends!
Jojo says
Lol you’re too funny! I’ve never actually heard of virtual coffee dates
Tartanjogger @tartanjogger.wordpress.com says
That’s too funny- love the idea of a virtual coffee date! :d
Jodea @ chillichocolatelove says
Sounds fun! My foot’s been hurting, too… I’m pretty good at squatting while drunk and performing, for no good reason, what we affectionately term the ‘slut drop’ while dancing. In other words, dipping it low and picking it up slow. Oh dear.

I would LOVE an iced coffee gab-fest with a Monican. It would be the highlight of my year! 😉
