A very short mac indeed

Having spent some time in Italy this year I've converted to the real stuff when it comes to coffee. Not to the point of chewing beans straight, but pretty close.
I drink short macs, however I don't think I've ever been taken quite so literally with my order as I was following this morning's ride.
The word 'short' was given scrupulous attention.  


For a moment I considered that I might have been served the spillage from someone else's order.
I inhaled for breath and accidentally finished my coffee at the same time.
An ant fell in and got wet up to it's knees.
I had to eat my coffee cause I put a sugar in that absorbed all the liquid.

I may sound bitter about this but I kinda have reason to be. It cost me $3.75.
Obviously it wasn't worth me kicking up a fuss and demanding some more spillage. I did what was right, paid my bill, thanked the staff kindly and then rode home to make a fat plunger coffee as compensation.

Can't get by without caffeine when you're cycling!
