@QueenOfCoffee tbf, if you didn't follow the list I wouldn't notice. Your job would just be cut short and then we would have to see what the will did. :blobcatlaugh:
I just read an article about what to give for a 15th anniversary gift. Apparently, it's crystal... Also they had a section for modern gifts and this was in it. I'm not sure how a fucking sun dial is "modern" Also, what does giving someone a sundial say about your relationship? You're too dumb for a watch. Glad I married you. @HCBunny I think the case of reese's and ear cleaning device might be winners.
Getting old really fucks with the ads and spam emails you get. I used to get Nigerian princes who needed my checking account, sex toys, and weird chain letters. Now it's just reverse mortgages and ads from Wayfair telling me I need a weathervane.
I will totally use a vegetable peeler to shave oyster mushrooms to look like noodles, and feed them to my kids who literally had no idea. 11 and 7 ate them with spaghetti sauce and just thought they were wide noodles.
7 is home sick and watching the star wars trilogy for the first time. He just came up to explain the plot of Empire Strikes Back to me and it was just every thing.
He's just told me:
Darth Vader is really dead or just a brain with a cyborg body. AND Luke's father is dead. And he said LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER. But he can't be Luke's father cause in the last movie his father was dead.
Two of my boys have gone to friend's houses. The third is about to leave. Really thinking about calling one of hub's buddies so he can go to their house on a play date too, and I can have the house to myself.
If you really think about it... Doesn't it seem kinda bat shit crazy that we have trucks driving through suburban US neighborhoods for the sole purpose of selling soft serve and ice cream novelties to wee people with little disposable income? I mean, this just sounds like an awful enterprise. How do you pitch this business plan?
I'm sick today and couldn't decide between chicken noodle soup or curry for lunch so made some unholy amalgamation of the two and it's just everything right now. It's spicy, gingery, chicken-y, coconut-y. All I know is I'm breathing through my nose right now and managed to use up some more of the massive amount of Thai chilis in my fridge.
