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

Ok, good. I thought you went mad and meant something CRAZY like lime juice only.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

something CRAZY like lime juice only.

Who knows? I'll keep ordering them around the place and asking for their recipes.

This one was way cheap, too. I didn't catch its price, but the drink tab was $6.45 for the gimlet and a Heffenwieser (indubitably mispelt).

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I thought you went mad and meant something CRAZY like lime juice only.

Then it's not a gimlet. It's a vodka lime. I've had arguments with customers over this. Don't ask for a vodka gimlet and then get pissed that it's sweet. That's the freakin' drink buddy.

Our wings are not tired

I'm craving a double double. I wonder where the nearest In-n-Out is.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm having an enchirito but my mexican pizza is sadly Dali-esque. The nearest In n Out is at Inglewood & the 405.

I have had a double double and animal fries. They were yummy.

Timelies!

Not that strictly speaking I believe in retro-causality, but the shoulder-ma prevailed. My problem is diagnosed as Frozen Shoulder AKA "shoulder adhesive capsulation" AKA my rotator cuff is all inflamed and ouchified. Which is actually good news, because even if we didn't treat it, it would back off on its own over about a year or so, but treatment will speed up the healing significantly.

This is indeed good news, because the alternatives would include arthritic degeneration (NONE of which showed up on the X-rays! Yay!) and even less fun, and irrepairable problems.

So I got a cortisone shot (not at all bad -- the doctor likes to use a very small bore needle) and then waited about a half hour for an insta-Physical Therapy evaluation/session. PT tells me that the tightened up rotator cuff is impairing 40% of my mobility with the arm. I've got a set of exercizes (none of which are difficult) and an appointment next Wednesday.

Yeah I'm learning this. My friend K got pregnant a month before me (and then miscarried, so ultimately a sad story). She and I were both seeing the same FNP etc and were undergoing similar treatment. She was terrified of having to be on bedrest and at the possibility of having multiples.

I teased her about both things.

And, lo and behold, I was on bedrest at week 6 or something and am having twins.

I'd call it poetic justice, but really, my more superstitious self thinks it is Ganesha playing a joke on me. From a practical standpoint what it has meant is being more careful about what I tease other people about.
