Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

sarameg, I'm glad you have a nice neighbor to cheer you up!

disclaimer: I am depressed and have had a bad day in regards to being helpful to my Fellow Man

You know what would surely happen if I brought a yummy plate of food to a bad-day-having neighbor? First, they would answer the door annoyed because I had interrupted Something Important, then they would stare at me as if I were a crazy stalker, then they would stare at the plate of yummy food and tell me they were allergic to X or they didn't eat X, then they would close the door in my face, leaving me standing there forlorn feeling like a complete idiot. Which I seem to do a lot, after trying to be helpful to my Fellow Man.

I wouldn't! I'd take it happily and tell you how you have singlehandedly made up for my crappy day and then I'd eat it and wash the plate and return it, gushing thanks yet again!

Question to wrap up the afternoon: what is your favorite restaurant?

Overall, that would be Dar Maghreb in LA. Locally, it'd probably be Dish, though if I'm hungry for steak I go to Texas de Brazil and for sushi I go to Sekisui.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Are there any decent frozen mac and cheese's? I feel the need for it for dinner, and I don't want to go to Whole Foods if I can helo it.

I like Marie Callender's.

sarameg, you are a superior human being!

Betsy, I'm sorry you're having a bad day.

I'm trying to finish things up because tomorrow's my last day in the office before I fly to China for a week. Argh! ::flails::

I dunno as I have a favorite restaurant, although I really like Grasshopper: [link]

The food is always interesting and really good, and they have a fantastic sake bar.

My other favorite is just down the road from it, a sports bar with a huge rotating beer list and a really good bar menu with great specials. I eat there a LOT.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

My favorite restaurant is My House! Okay, I'm just saying that because the SO just grilled us some fabulous tasting burgers and it's a gorgeous summery day with a nice cool breeze. But yum, burgers. My SO rocks.

libkitty, want to write an adult Sunday School curriculum with me? I'm thinking we could call it: In the Name of All That's Holy, Shut Up! — A Guide for Those Not of the World, While Living in It

I love your title and working with you would be great! Unfortunately, I don't think that the people who need it would go (or read the book).

mac and cheese

Stouffers is one of my favorite comfort foods. Teh yum.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So I was fine for a few hours, then my ureter got blocked again, and the pain came back. Just as bad as before.

But then it cleared up again, and now I'm fine. I'm not in pain, and it's fucking great! Keep your fingers crossed that it lasts this time.

No pain for Scola! I decree it.
