Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

not your mom's socks.

But I'd love to see how.

DH and I would never have had much of the adventure we had when we met if there'd been cellphones and maps. Getting lost, being out of touch, very much disappearing art forms.

traveller's checks, and once-a-week-four-minute-pay-phone-calls-that-cost-$20 from 1992-93.

THIS! I was in London the spring of 93, and my mom saved all the letters and postcards I sent them. I called my folks like, 3 times in 5 months, and when I got my tax return and needed the money desperately, they had to send it Western Union, or some such.

I wrote all my papers for classes, including a 12 page research paper, longhand, because no one had access to computers in my program. ONE person in our program of 40 people had a laptop, and it was purely for WP.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys, I want to eat the same thing for lunch every day. Is that OK?

I think that is OK. I eat the same thing most weeks, because I bring in cold cuts and make sandwichs.

I am SUPER BORED. I really should work. I have reached the end of the internet. I am mildly agitated because people on the bus were yelling and it aggravated me. (the bus driver and a wheelchair patron got into a fight because he didn't buckle her in).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I eat the same things for meals almost every day, when I'm home. After a while, I get bored and switch to something else. I have not died of malnutrition yet.

I eat the same thing for lunch, it's cheap and reassuring.

edit: What Zen said. I change when I'm bored. I don't like experimenting with food.

I feel you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You guys, I want to eat the same thing for lunch every day. Is that OK?

Oliver Sacks does. So yes.

I wish I could get myself into a routine and eat the same meals over and over again. I feel like the reduction in daily decisions would be wonderful. When I was slavishly following the Atkins 2-week Induction menu i had that for a while, but now I have my various CSAs to eat up.

Also, deciding on a "uniform" to wear to work (or to the gym for that matter). I use up a lot of energy deciding what to wear and what to eat and I have to do it EVERY DAY. That can't be optimal.
