What RUINED your day today?

[_priapism]

Why has eating out become so technologically challenging?

It’s why old people have dinner at 4 p.m. at a cafeteria.

Hey!  Cafeteria?  No way. A respectable restaurant at least.

And the wait staff wears scrubs?

It's 4:30 here on the Black Hills. This old timer is beating the rush and will be heading to bed shortly after.

Tornado warning right now too, but if I take shelter, I'll miss the early bird special.

This old timer

Nah Robby, you're one of them kids that got caught staring at their phone in traffic. It's all a state of mind, your actual age is irrelevant 

[staci]

I'll miss the early bird special


Or the "worm

I’m not quite ready for the early bird special of bland tasteless and completely ordinary food.  Nor am I willing to have trays of baby food for the elderly delivered to my nursing home room.  Just fucking shoot me first.  I’ll find a way to bribe a hot girl to bring me something like spicy Thai green curry, maybe that should be an equally hot spicy Thai girl?

But it would be nice to be able to eat out and park even if I forget my phone.  Much of the city parking these days you pay by phone, after getting the ap.  I honestly hate that shit.  If there’s a way to fuck it up, I will.

On another note, what kind of worm are you looking for staci?

You really shouldn't stiff your graphic designer on payment.  Especially when there is a massive papertrail, and you have full control over their website, emails, and social media.

LOL no you should not.

What ruined my day. 

Real life challenges.  Everybody has them sooner or later.  Now is my turn. Life never fails to come visit me every few years, or in some cases more often, and put two big middle fingers right up in my face and yell, "F* YOU!!!" 

Because of that, I won't be on as much in the coming weeks.  I may pop in a time or two for admin/mod stuff, just to take my mind off things.
I am on today obviously, and perhaps a bit this weekend only because everyone is out of town except for Dan and I.  Very quiet in the house with 4 less bodies that we've become accustomed to for the last year.  But, especially in this yucky Michigan weather there is still plenty of time spent cuddling with him and just enjoying his arms wrapped around me.   It helps make things a little bit better.

Good to see you Jules. Hoping you'll get "life" tamed soon and back to yourself again. Missing the sharp wit of our sheriff.

One saying I've used in my ups and downs of life is, "This too shall change."  When things are good, it warns me that a turn for the worse is possible. In bad times, I know things will change for the better.

Just know I and the other KBers are sending positive thoughts your way.

Now, on to my original reason for logging on...posting pictures from my South Dakota trip. Hope you'll check back in to view them. I know you enjoy my photography.

Take your time Jules.  Although we all miss you here, clearly life takes precedence and is all the more consuming when it wants to mess with you. Family first, then when you're good and ready raise both your middle fingers nice and high and tell life that you're not beaten and it can go fuck itself.

Love you

We're starting to run into Jules-withdrawal but of course IRL stuff is more important. Happy to see you stop by and I hope life gets back to normal for  you sooner than later

We love you. I love you. You’re going to get through this. And we will support you every step of the way. Sending you hugs. ❤️❤️❤️

Whatever it is, MJ, I'm sure you are more than equal to the moment. Now you're going through times you'll look back on from a much better future place with joy, laughter, and understanding.

Will we see a post or two from you in Who Got Laid Last Night?  since you two have the house all to yourself...

So on my excursion home today that I posted elsewhere about, we stopped outside of town at one of the usually better options in what is otherwise a complete food desert, an Italian place where there’s unlikely to be any Italians working.  I had an unusual craving for a meatball sub, and they had one on the menu.  My Peruvian got crab soup and calamari.  I tried the calamari, it was pretty good.  I guess frying is easier than using an oven.

So my meatball sub shows up 20 minutes after she got her food.  The shredded mozzarella on top was barely melted, some actually wasn’t melted at all.  Dubiously, I pushed one of the meatballs further onto the roll to find it literally ice cold, as in it came from the freezer rather than even the fridge.  I called the waitress over, explained the situation.  She offered a new sub, and I replied this one is fine, it just needs to be hot.  Another 20 minutes goes by, and I get it back.  At this point I hadn’t eaten all day and dug in.  My Peruvian now finished a while ago and was waiting for me.  Well in the 20 minutes they had it, it went from ice cold to room temperature on a now soggy bun.  I mean fuck, how fucking hard is it for that numbnuts in the kitchen to heat up a fucking meatball sub in a place that has a wood fired pizza oven!  Guess what, if the cheese isn’t bubbling, it still not fucking hot!  The bun is supposed to be browning on the edges all crusty and good, not fucking white and soggy!  And why did it take 20 minutes to get it luke warm when you have a 700F fucking pizza oven!

I regret telling the waitress it was fine.  If shit like that ever happens to me again, I’m asking for a manager.  It wasn’t the waitress’s fault, although a good one would know what a meatball sub should look like.  I don’t mind even in a pandemic if she stuck her fucking finger in there to confirm it’s hot after the initial obvious blunder.  I’m fucking vaccinated now even if she isn’t.

Btw, my Peruvian said her crab soup was warm, but got completely cold before she could finish what was only a cup of soup.

Later in the afternoon my stomach was churning and I briefly thought I was going to lose that awful sub right there on the cemetery lawn.

If I don’t get some good fucking food this holiday weekend l’m going to be pissed.  Life is too short to eat shitty food.

I craved a lobster roll all day Jed.  Ordered it, waited two hours, for delivery.  Food showed up cold.  And no lobster roll.  The driver substituted soft shelled crabs.  Which would have been good warm, but they weren’t.  And soggy from a sauce.


But that said, your meatball sandwich sounds worse.  Foodie hugs.

Went to pour milk into my morning brew and it had gone off, so i had to go to get dressed and go the shop first.
