Much, much ~ma to P-C, amyth's brother, Trudy's brother and the NoiseDesigns. May order restore at your lives soon, without anymore health and nonsense issues.

Pretty bathroom, Aims!

Cats cause pain And make a mess.

But they're oh. so. pretty!

And, once more, with feeling:

Shir, I find this kind of sweeping generalization absolutely infuriating. Part of my job involves sales, therefore I am a salesperson. I am sure as hell not dishonest, and neither are the people I work with. Are their dishonest salespeople? Yes. Any more than in the general population? I don't know, but I'll be more than happy to track down statistics if need be. Clarification and qualification are never bad things.

You're right, and I apologize. It was bad wording at my end. If I could turn back time and remove the words "suspicious" and "dishonest" from my original post(s), I would. Because I understand it was bad and hurting, which is two things I never meant for, and also because it seems like it distracts the people here so much from the meaning of what I wrote, that I feel as if this discussion was redundant to begin with.

Right now, I'm sorry I ever wrote here anything wrt my thoughts on the subject of "experience" and "reality" (though I'd like to point that I never, ever wrote anything about "facts" in this scheme, because everything is a "fact"). Obviously my ideas need other words for, and until I'll find them, I won't post about them here.

Talked to B in KC... crush still unabated.

You should come here and visit your crush. And me. I will TOTALLY enable you!

Also, Drew, feel better! I am glad you have the pretty drippy painkillers now, and hope that they fix all the things. And soon.

Went to a casino tonight (friend turned 40 and he likes to play poker.) I never go; it is SO WEIRD to me. And walking the floor almost sent me into a fit. TOO MUCH SHINY SPINNY NOISY LIGHTS.

I could NOT go to Vegas.

Date guy, upon realizing that my night working schedule means that i am usually eating breakfast at 7pm, thoughtfully offered up that it's getting rather cold for ice cream and how about i pick a place for coffee/snack/dessert instead. He wins! I mentioned that Pambiche is awesome and we met there - i had a marvelous breakfast of deliciumus cuban food and the best mocha ever and he had a slice of cake (haven eaten dinner much earlier). Poor guy, turns out he's a total meat and potatoes kinda guy and extremely non-adventurous about food (hence the focus on places like cold stone and ihop). I think he was afraid of the menu. But i sure appreciated him totally giving in to my whim without me having to even ask! Prospect positive.

eta: did i mentioned that i'm high-maintence about food? Yeah, i totally am.

Glad you had a good date, erin.

Oh, I love Pambiche but I've only done breakfast there. Oh, and some of the best baked goods.

But what on earth can you eat there? I swear everything is made with bacon sofrito. Or it's that everything I order is. Could be that...

Mmm, Pambiche.

Also, yay, date guy!

Oh, wow, further perusal of their menu means I have to drag my Pambiche breakfast person there for lunch. And, hey, veggie food too. That looks amazing.

the vegan options are limited to sides, appetizers, and one plate w/ beans, rice, yucca...but most of the appetizers can be easily made into yummy meals...if cheese is ok then there are a couple of empanadas that are pretty tasty. I miss living down the street from that place!

I'm sorry you don't feel like you can talk about what you think here, Shir.

Was it here or on Facebook that this - [link] chocolate milk being better for you after a strenuous workout than sports drinks - was discussed? Because I just woke up from a dream in which I was trying to make sure that P-C, his sibs, and his parents all had a glass of chocolate milk after that last knock-down drag-out.

Hi, Maria! It's wonderful news about your mom's eye! Thanks, cuz I need good news.

I'm sorry you don't feel like you can talk about what you think here, Shir.

Not without hurting people I care about. But hey, that's why I have a blog for. I can practice my wording and theories about Life as I See It there. This thread is for public discussion, and I accept it.
