You just say that because you've never had the buttery goodness of a fresh-from-the-tree Jamaican pear.
I am so willing to try this too.
Mmmm, I love avocados. I even like only decent ones. But good avocados are bliss.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

and you can have pear from our back yard.
Do your parents take in strays? More important, will they let me nom a pear or lots and stay elsewhere while telling them they raised a lovely person? I WANT PEAR.
I am not even hungry but I am totally craving avocado like mad now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Depending on when you go you can score, I think, pear, cherries, breadfruit, and at least three varieties of mango. Hmm. I think maybe also bananas and limes or oranges or grapefruits.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My sole experience with sublime avocados was Moz.
Apropos of nothing, 'moz' is Arabic for 'banana'.
More to the point, from my angle, bananas are Ryan's favourite fruit, and second word (after 'shoe'). And, thanks to the Queensland floods, now over $12/kilo.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Slicese of avocado, lightly breaded, fried quickly... litle crispy outside, warm and melty inside. They were wooooonderful.
God that sounds heavenly. Now that I'm feeling better I would actually be able to taste them, you know, if I actually had some.
My dog is sitting in his kennel keening for something, and I can't figure out what it is. It seems to be under his bed or behind the kennel. I'm sure he is terribly frustrated with his stupid human.

Somehow I've successfully avoided watching 2G1C, and I'd like to hold onto my innocence for as long as I can.
Forget about seeing it! I could never bring myself to watch it. But even reading a description of it... I've already been utterly sullied.
Crap. I have to grade now.

I'm going to the dentist tomorrow. I've always had good teeth, but it has been long enough since I've been to the dentist that this could be very unpleasant. I may have to indulge in some emergency retail therapy tomorrow.

Thanks, Perkins!
In other news, I have set a new personal best in exercise today since I got my Fitbit. My body kind of wants to know why I won't just sit down and stay there.

Go, shrift!
I exercised today for the first time in over a week, since I got sick, and bah, it was painful. So I bought ice cream tonight (B&J's Americone Dream).
