The Coffee House-Come & Chat With Us!(April 2020)

[SuicideBlonde]

It is so gross and rainy. I needed vegan pho. So I made Joe take me. We split a bowl and I still have some of mine for dinner. They serve so much. I told Joe not to uber today because his jeep leeks. He can work the rest of the weekend.

I was cuddling with Bruce, but he ran off.

Morning/afternoon y'all! A line of thunderstorms moved through early this morning and it will continue to rain periodically throughout the day. I won't be going out today!
The mashed potato bowl was a new dish "invented" by Nate, the chef of Sweets-n-Eats which is a food truck not a restaurant. He is very creative and most dishes he comes up with are amazing! Of course I have only had the vegetarian options but the omni choices are in much demand and my friends say they are awesome as well.
I think I may go to Aldi's Monday. I am very curious to see what they have. The weekend is going to be rainy and I hate going for groceries in the rain plus it is always busier on weekends.

I really liked the special taco street corn hummus. About $2? Roasted corn flavor with a touch of cumin, and super good on veggies or tortillas
There was another one, but I don't remember. The corn one is vegan
And mine had the almond milk ice cream back! $2.99

2.99 for almond milk ice cream is phenomenal! Is that a pint?

I saw my best friend in person for the first time in six weeks today. It's her birthday. I picked up Thai carryout and we ate on my front porch. My porch is big and the couch where I sat and the chair where she sat are 10 feet apart (I measured!). She brought her own plate, fork and drink and we disinfectant wiped the plastic containers from the restaurant. It was SO nice! Even though we message a lot, and FT from time to time, it's just not like being together in person.

That sounds so nice! My friend might come here on Sunday. We are going to go walking and wear our masks and will keep the appropriate distance.
I have t seen her since my last day of work which was March 17.
Although as I’m typing this, I wonder if it’s such a good idea. She just got over being really sick but tested negative for the virus. The said it could be a false negative because of how sick she was and she had to quarantine the full 14 days anyway. Sunday will be three weeks but I’m not sure I should chance it.

Yes. The mocha fudge is phenominal! I detected coconut in the plain chocolate though

I don't know--can you even hear each that far away? I'm having such an awful time hearing people-I keep having to cup my ear to help! Doesn't help that so much hush hush is being talking about at work, I feel so left out, even when I'm right in the middle!
I didn't realize I used lips to check words until I couldn't see them. Stupid cheap amplifiers I tried were rubbish.
I don't know, I wouldn't think it would any different than anyone else or anything you'd do, in fact with your friend I'd think you'd both be quite cautious. I don't know.The incubation time is brutal

 

[KLS52]

Yeah, I’m thinking I might put it off. I feel bad for her though. She suffers from really bad depression and was so excited when I said I would go walking with her. I’m just not thinking it’s a great idea. And good point about being able to hear each other, especially through the masks.

 

[KLS52]

Uh oh...

Oh geez....I'm imagining everybody uses bluetooth devices just to talk. I saw a thing about restaurants putting up plexiglass dividers in the middle of tables--not sure if that was a joke or not .

I can imagine people socializing with video chats on their big screen tvs soon!

Did you give yourself a buzz cut?! Just kidding - I know the length of your hair.

Every once in a while, I get really tempted to give myself a buzz cut. One of these days I will.

How freeing would that be! I just took a little off the length but now my layers are too long. Not sure I should tackle that. I’ve tried it before without much success and it’s not like I can run to my hairdresser and have her fix it like I usually do lol.

My hair is longer than it has been in a long time! I wouldn't attempt to cut anything but my bangs though which I have always done between hair cuts. I keep it up in a clamp or a ponytail pretty much all the time now especially when it is hot out.

 

[Raven]

I haven't had my hair cut since October. The ends are really bad. I deep conditioned my hair again last night.

I went to bed at 9 again last night so I've been awake since 3 in the morning! I ended up getting up instead of lying there.

I was moving stuff around last night to make room for the cat litter. We have 11 bags, oops, I kept just ordering more without checking how much we had. Oh well. At least we are not likely to run out.

It feels chilly today. I'm about to run a bath. I might end up taking a nap later, haha.

 

[Chryssie]

Morning/afternoon y'all! I slept late today and missed the sunrise. It is going to get up to 90 F today! I am going over to Central 28 to get a new beer release this afternoon. I am supporting them as much as I can! Other than that, I have no plans.

 

[KLS52]

So the friend who was coming over tomorrow to go walking had relapsed. Fever is back and she has another virtual md appointment this afternoon. So looks like I’m in the clear although I would rather her not be sick again.

I’d like to clarify something: Employees do knock on my apartment door, but if I don’t respond, they’ll come in to check on me, or to leave my meals or whatever else they’re bringing on the kitchenette counter. Only rarely do they enter without knocking.

Ok that makes more sense. I was just concerned for your privacy, especially since you felt overheated because of needing to get dressed in the bathroom with the door closed.

 

[Raven]

Where is Tom? Is he not on this forum?

 

[Raven]

I just did some laundry and listened to The Spice Girls. It's lovely and sunny again.

 

[shyvas]

It's already lunchtime and I'm going to have some delicious homemade soup. It's another gorgeous sunny day so I'll go out later on. There really is not much else to do for physical excercise.
