Oh, see, I just got me a sports mouth guard, which has lasted a good long while, and keeps my teeth far enough apart that I can't grind them. Also, way cheaper.

OK that's hilarious. Because after the lady at the drugstore had turned the box over, read the instuctions, looked me up and down, and finally rung up my purchase she said she'd had someone come up earlier to purchase one and when she told him the price he'd said, "I'll just use my football mouth guard."

I'm an East Bay'er, SPP, anything I can help with?

I have a friend in SF looking for something fun for dinner. He's partial to seafood or sushi.

Is it dungenous crab season?

I think it is. I know there are a bunch of Crab Feeds this month.

It is crab season. I don't have any great recommendations though - would need to defer to the actual city dwellers.

what's the name of that beloved italian place in the marina?

Suzi - that's such excellent news! Woo hoo!

Grr Arggh. Girlfriend's pain in the rear husband has chosen to be a pain in the rear. I am solo tonight after all. Oh well, I've got an overdue library book I was hoping to finish tonight anyway, and R and I are rescheduled to tomorrow (probably). So now, I believe I'm gonna go find me some dinner before I start chewing on my shoes or something. (Not comfort eating, just hungry!)

diner food achieved. swiss burger and fries. I gave blood earlier today and needed FOOD.

so what do we do instead of comfort/stress eating? Gum just sucks and kills the jaw. And obviously the body wants SOMETHING to do, and we aren't allowed to smoke inside anymore.
