I found a box of vegan mac and cheese mix at the back of a shelf. It's been sitting there for a while, kind of scaring me, but I think I'm desperate enough that I'll give it a try.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Congrats, Jilli!

Oh hell no, I did not just hear Christmas bells in the background music for a commercial.
It is TOO goddamned early.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Good news, Jilli!
Good Job, P-C!
The boxed one might not be very tasty, but it has a loooong shelf life.
reahsh: the reason I respond to P-C. 1) I have a DH that has to learn not to let his family push the buttons -- and he needed to be around someone that couldn't be pushed ( me) 2) He is learning, if slower than one might hope. It took him a while to even understand that his family might be way over invested in his everyday life.
And I am with Laura, you people don't see the sympathy on my face?

I now have vegan mac and cheese from a box. It's OK. Not quite what I wanted, but OK.

Aaauugh! NO. No Christmas music allowed until AT LEAST after Nov. 17th. (Unless it is Christmas music from Nightmare Before Christmas.)

Oh, just for the record, my mom appears to have relaxed the Must Have a Brother rule, as the current potential future wife, whom I will be meeting tomorrow, does not have a brother. This is going to be like one of those traditionally awkward arrangements you see in movies where the parents come and show off their children, who then go off and see if they click or not. Although only our moms will be there, I think. And it will occur in a hotel lobby. At least it should make for an amusing story.
My dad has told me not to mention comics, as they should be left for a second date. Or something to that extent. I am also not supposed to make jokes. My goal is to see whether she can take care of a house. Or something.
I haven't talked to this girl at all, so it's essentially a blind date. Any blind date advice from previous blind date havers?

Yay, Jilli!

I would ask her about favorite tv shows, what kind of books she likes , things like that. It doesn't really matter what she answers -- just that she can answer with more than a shrug or don't know.
I think that is about all you can expect.

Oh, I do have that information. We have a couple in common, but our tastes aren't all that similar.

There is something to be said for that, though. Only two people showed up to my "TV Worth Talking About" klatch tonight, and neither one of them watched much TV. One of them didn't know who Tina Fey was. It was awkward.
I think that is about all you can expect.
I told my mom that I was tired of this whole process of them finding me girls that I didn't click with, and her advice to me was to be my best. I feel like an Active.
