What a fantastic outfit, juliana! You look mahvelous.

meara, I think I had the extra charge for going into storage thing explained to me, but I don't remember the rationale. It might have been the guy giving me the estimate saying "yeah, it doesn't make sense to me either, but that's how it works". Good luck with making the logistics work.

I need to decide where I want to go for dinner.

What are your choices?

What are your choices?

Restaurant?
Takeout?
TV Dinner?
Running through the woods naked and killing a rabbit with your teeth?

Restaurant.

I'm in a resort area, so I've got pretty much all the major chains reasonably close by. I had dinner at Chili's last night.

Hooters!

I'm trying to decide if it's a compliment or a sign I'm a bad teacher if a student says "Man, I would love to sit down and talk with you at a bar."

Senior, not freshman. Which I would totally take as a sign I was a Bad Teacher. And it wasn't skeevy, more reflective. I think I said "Er, thanks."

Still going "Huh."

Hooters!

Nah. I'm actually hungry.

I love their buffalo wings.

Erin, it makes me want to give him (?) a big "awwww" and a pat on the head, which I'm sure isn't at all what's wanted. Not skeevy, but wanting to sound like a big grown up equal conversation partner type, and then so overshooting the mark with the bar thing.

(IOW, compliment.)

And I love the electric lawnmower, although a robotic one that ran itself like a roomba would be even cooler.
