Do you have to have every meal together on vacation? Or can you and your sister go out one night alone?
Not that I should be giving advice at the moment because I just had a screaming match with my own mother.
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't have any coping advice, Hil, but I wish your mom would get over that.
I was sure when I made the appointment this morning that it was for today, but it's actually for next week. Oops. I figured that out after I got to Kaiser but before I tried to check in, so that's something I guess.

I don't think I can take week-long vacations where I don't have real plans anymore. I sit in my house and get lost inside my head and don't eat at regular intervals etc etc. It's not a good thing.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Thanks, everyone.
If I get too frustrated while on vacation, my sister and I (or my dad and I) can go find something to do, and somewhere to eat.

Herding cats for fun
I wonder, does Maine offer vegan Chinese and Indian food? Those could be annoying.

What is even happening?
Where in Maine, Hil?

I was just in the ladies room here at work, listening to someone in another stall fuss with wrappers and throwing things away and grumbling. A state of transcendent joy fell upon me, causing me to bless Menopause and my freedom from such things.

My mom apologized for freaking out about the food stuff.
She also suggested that we just decide each day what we'll do for dinner. My sister and I both said no to that plan -- we've tried that before, and it goes very badly. Nobody wants to go through all these negotiations while hungry.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry that deciding what to do about food is such a chore. There ought to be a better way. One person in charge with the understanding that they need to cover various needs. Each person gets to choose one day with no arguments. Put a bunch of choices in a hat and pull randomly. The focus could be more on enjoying time together, unless this is a tasting vacation.
