The Chocolate Dragon Cafe in Rockridge, Ca

I am sitting at the Chocolate Dragon Cafe in the Rockridge District of Oakland, CA having a Bottersweet hot chocolate.  The Barrista actually treated me after I told her about how I have had a hard couple of days.  Someone stole my mom’s scooter in San Francisco yesterday and it really made me lose hope in humanity.  The idea of losing hope in humanity quickly made me start losing hope in love, truth, and honesty!  As I sit here I am gaining perspective listening to world music, smelling and tasting the Chocolate, and thinking of how nice it would be to sit here with someone you love!  I believe in love!

Dog friendly hardware store in Rockridge district of Oakland, CA
