I so wanted to be ready to paint my bedroom this weekend, but I'm only halfway done scrubbing the pasty walls :(. So much back and forth getting rid of pasty water and getting fresh. Never expected it to be such a project :eek:. Definitely needed it though, as it was vinyl wallpaper and smoked in :confused:
 
I still have a Kmart near me. It's good for basic stuff.

Depending how bad the hole is, fabric/sewing stores sell iron-on demin patches that you could iron on from the inside to salvage the jeans you love... just a thought.

I've done that before... very uncomfortable... I'll be OK. Thanks, hon.
 
... you totally space & forget an item or two that you specifically put out in the open & in plain view in order not to forget...?? :brood:

I almost drove back to Jer's... I bought a large container of discounted mushrooms & an expensive jar of Newman's Own organic marinara, put 'em in a bag when I was ready to leave, right there in front of my face, said good-bye to Jer & the beasties, grabbed my purse, my beverage, my empties, & headed out the door....

I decided it was best to just forfeit the $1.79-batch of mushrooms instead of going back & forth again, late at night. He texted me back once I was in my house, said I could come get the stuff in the entryway, I said just throw the 'rooms in the fridge, so sorry, thanks muchly, etc....

F*ck. Now I only have, like, four tablespoons of my own sauce.... my own f*cking fault.... **grumble** I'll figure something out.... :|
 
I'm the queen of forgetting. :hug:
 
Hah! I can walk into a supermarket thinking SPECIFICALLY about a certain item at the top of my list, and still walk out without it because I get distracted by other things. :sigh:
 
... you somehow, inadvertently, wind up chewing your inner cheek while sleeping? Now I have this painful "ridge" along the inside of my right cheek.
 
I saw this saying on Facebook...it was a Buddhist koan or something like that. It had to do with there being no right or wrong views because of how we perceive things...our perception is based on our experiences...anyway, something like that. I'm really not remembering it and now I can't find where I saw it! :(
 
You have the most amazing vegan meal...flautas with Seitan, vegetables, potatoes, vegan cheese and sauce/salsa...then two hours later you end up with food poisoning. :yuck:

Oh, no!! :( I hope you feel better soon, hon.... :hug: What do you think caused it? I'd think vegan fare would be pretty damn safe, unless there was some sort of cross-contamination.... :confused:
 
I've been going to a lot more coffee shops/cafes lately and one thing that really bothers me is a person who comes in and takes over a whole table and uses it as their personal office.

I saw one woman on her own this morning in a very busy coffee shop who was at a table with 5 chairs and she had her laptop on the table and was talking on her phone really loudly. Clearly, she was a very important person.:rolleyes:

If I go to that coffee shop another time and she is doing that again I'm going to sit down at "her" table.:rofl:

...people put out refreshments, and don’t include napkins. What do they expect us to use, our sleeves? :rolleyes:
 
...you have fifteen minutes left of the season finale of a really good show, and then this happens...

It was kind of a fitting scene, though, lol...pretty much what my face looked like when wireless went out, hahahahahaha.
 
When a stranger asks you for travel advice on the street and then looks at you like they don't believe you. :iiam:

A woman came up to me just now and asked what bus to get to a particular train station and I told her the number bus and she walked away and looked at the bus timetable information. I know she heard me okay because she repeated the bus number back to me.:shrug:

She didn't get on the bus when it arrived either because I looked to see if she got on.:D

First the tortillas, now the napkins! :mad: Maybe they're averse to flat, white, fold-able things.... LOL

The thing about the tortillas: They were serving us a Mexican dish that traditionally includes tortillas, as most Mexican dishes usually do. Much of the kitchen staff is Latino, so they’d know about it. It just didn’t make sense to call something “fajitas” and not include tortillas. It’s like eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, but without the bread. You’re just eating the peanut butter, and the jelly. Maybe they’re okay without the bread, but you can’t call it a sandwich.

That could have been me :rolleyes:. I've asked for directions for another time and got a yell from the person that I was doing the wrong thing! I'm sure they thought I was either loopy or didn't trust their direction! No time to explain...
