Let's talk about something really mundane in this thread, OK?
After all the drama today, I'm ready for something really shallow and meaningless.....

plus, I've got 1/2 hr to kill before another episode of "24" comes on..... :woohoo:


I'm doing my laundry right now.

37. you'll be fascinated to know I actually walked over to my fridge to
check it out and confirm that yes, indeed, it is Trader Joe's Organic Mayonnaise. That's the actual brand. We have a lot of Trader Joes out here on the west coast.

Aren't you thrilled??

20. I just love that comfortably full feeling, don't you? Full, but not too
full.

It reminds me of that sense of satisfaction I feel when the house is all newly stocked with groceries...

:hi:

what kind of pizza did you have?

29. We get the same thing every week......
When I call, and identify myself, I don't have to say what the order is!

They already KNOW!

We have a medium, moderately thick crust pizza. Toppings: extra cheese, pepperonis, green bell peppers, mushrooms, bits of ground pork, onions, and like that.....

We can't eat the whole thing, so the leftovers become a lunch or two.

It's a local restaurant, not part of a chain. We love them! And they say we are one of their most reliable customers....

32. and you lost 40 lbs eating like this?? heheh. Some people have all
the luck. Damn, girl. I'm jealous. :)

Actually, we have a local Chinese restaurant that knows us like the pizza place knows you guys. It's a nice feeling to be so well known.
:hug:

41. Oh yes, my dear Shine......
I did lose 40 pounds....over about 10 years! I think.....I don't recall when I started keeping track of my weight...

Don't be jealous....I'm just doing what works for me over the very long haul!

I'm doing what I can live with....and baby, I can live with pizza once a week!

I love having businesses know me that well! It is such a good feeling!

:hug: xoxo back atcha!

13. How about something ridiculous?
Today, I walked into a men's room accidentally. I didn't realize it until I saw the urinals.

It was a long day, ok? I was out of it. :blush: :crazy:

28. Why do they call it "trimming the tree" at the holidays, when really
you're just decorating it. You're putting MORE stuff on it, not less stuff? :shrug:

let's discuss this at great length, shall we? or not.
