where high-density means you can make a lot of deliveries in an hour and grocery store shopping is difficult for a large number of residents.
And where you have a population with the preexisting assumption that one should be able to have everything delivered.

I'm sure it is very nummy, but I can't get past the fish head part of fish head soup. I'm not sure if it is the fish or the head. I think I'm still showing signs of ptsd from the guppy soup 15 years ago.
I've had an epiphany about my information loop: the two teams aren't talking to each other. They've picked me as a liason. Which, fine, but tell me beforehand, ok? Except I don't think they've realized they're doing it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I think that's an important reason too-- it's part of the culture to have ordinary items delivered. It not a luxury.
Speaking of, I need to go to that Container Store where you just scan items and they're delivered same-day. It's like the anti-Ikea.

Maybe that's part of my problem. I was smashing my mental voodoo dolls into a million pieces with an errant satellite.

Luckily, we just had a long discussion about rodents...how many days ago? Must search. And good luck!
Now this is going to bug me. What movie/teeveeshow, etc. features the line, "Eck! A mouse!" ? I say it all the time and can't place where I got it.

More like "I come for peace," from the sound of it.
