"I'm from WASHINGTON STATE!!!!"
and expect special treatment?
I think not.
It's like I feel I have just a bit of ownership of Starbucks from being a Washingtonian.
Add Costco to that list as well.
Yes, while we are stuck here in Orlando waiting for our flight (8 hours from now) I think I'll find a Costco to run into and exclaim,
"I'm from WASHINGTON STATE!!!"
And when I order my iced mocha I'm going to be watching the food service peeps and reading into their every move:
I think she gave me extra chocolate because I'm from WASHINGTON STATE.
I think she smiled longer at me because I'm from WASHINGTON STATE.
I think he put that clear plastic lid on extra carefully because I'm from WASHINGTON STATE.
Yup. It's gonna happen...

Hey, didja know VintageDutchGirl is on Facebook!? I chit chat over there when I'm not doing crafting to avoid my housework. C'mon say hi :)
Rats! Wish I'd known you would be hanging out at the Orlando airport for so long - you could have come to our house for lunch! Next time ;-) Hope the vacation was great!

TOTALLY relate to the "I"M FROM WASHINGTON" syndrome. I get that feeling ALL the time when traveling around the country AND I do believe NO WHERE can make Starbucks the way they do in WA even IF they use the same recipes/same ingredients... it just doesn't taste the same!
