Also, there are a few food trucks that do acai bowls here.
I'm eleven hundred and twenty years old! Just gimme a friggin' beer!

Not possible, Kat. Tha rule is jam yesterday and jam tomorrow, never jam today.

It's totally too hot in summer in LA for jam.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I walked through the rain even though I was wearing the wrong shoes, and I still think it was a good call because you know the bus is a shitshow in the rain!

The only acai bowl I've had was in San Diego, and involved what seemed to be more of am acai-flavored sorbet/smoothie of sorts? With various other fruits and some granola on top. It was delicious!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The sky is greenish and thundery outside. I think if I really want a burrito for dinner I'm going to have to order it now, from the place right next door (instead of from the slightly better place a half-mile away).

Swim busted. Still stray thunder. If I had anything resembling energy, I'd hit up home despot. But thanks to this weather, I've been a giant headache all day.

I wish it would rain already. We have a weather advisory for monsoons and yet, nothing.
I put together our new ikea chair to replace our old ikea chair. I'm living the life!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
We have storms here also and I hope it means everything cancels for tomorrow, even though I SPENT ALL DAY MOVING THINGS AROUND AND WORKING ANGLES TO GET THE SCHEDULE TO WORK!!!! I HATE MY JOB!
ahem, ION, I am preparing to apply to for jobs RIGHT NOW.
I am looking at school district jobs and they base their pay scales on the # of days to work each year.
I think I need hive mind help. I currently make X and work 329 days a year plus I get overtime for anything over 40 hours and I average about 5 hours per week. If I add the overtime to the regular pay, I can break that down to hourly pay, say Y per hour.
Two jobs I am looking at currently are listed with the midpoint salary at Y-4 per hour, 243 days per year and I doubt there would be much overtime. So not insignificant pay drop. more than $15K.
BUT when I look at per day income, it is less than 30 minutes of pay difference because I would be working 86 FEWER DAYS!!! HOLY SHITBALLS! 86 days, I could cook a lot more and save $ on eating out, but also have time for weekend trips which would cost $$. I need a pro/con sheet. I guess I should also work up a SERIOUS household budget. DO NOT WANT!!

I told a friend on Facebook that I hadn't seen the Lego movie yet. I haven't actually seen this guy in years, though I've commented on a few of his Facebook posts. He messaged me wondering if I'd like to drive up to a theater near him to watch it so I'd have company when I saw it (I mentioned I was going to see it with Hubby). I declined, citing unwillingness to drive up there and how late I'd get home. He then offered to find a Redbox copy and bring it down to me, or find it on Amazon.com. I declined again.
Maybe he's just that big on sharing movies he loves. I really, really doubt he's interested in a new widow, because he's gay (the first gay person I knowingly met, decades ago). But it was weird that he was pressing me into a meet-up to watch the movie. Perhaps it just social cluelessness. I certainly know several men who lack social awareness. Just . . . odd.
