Electrophile Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Every other Friday, I treat myself to a frappuccino from Starbucks, so I'll be getting one this evening. I don't allow myself many luxuries, but that's one of them. My sister laughs at me for spending $6 on a coffee drink, but it's good, and I only do it 2-3 times a month. I don't think that's that bad. I know people who get multiple drinks from Starbucks every day. I wish I had that kind of scratch. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bong-Man Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I met a girl at the bar last night. She was a bit of a dog, but she had a great personality. She was well behaved, a good listener, and kept her political views to herself. She wasn't vaccinated (at least against covid), but I couldn't hold that against her. I was thinking of asking her out, but she already had a boyfriend that kept a pretty tight leash on her. When you reach my age, it seems like all the good ones are taken, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family is something to cherish, warts and all because it all goes by way too fast. Appreciate the little moments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrophile Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 My mom is currently in the hospital, and finding out she's doing a lot better has taken a load off my mind. Also, tomorrow is Friday which means donuts for breakfast, and that never fails to perk me up a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also - donuts make life just a little bit better for everyone lol. They were always my favorite as a kid, and I still have them a couple times a month. Lemon-filled and chocolate cake for the win.

Electrophile Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Finding my vinyl copy of Physical Graffiti I thought I'd lost. It was in a box, in the attic, with some other albums that I didn't know either my dad or I even owned. I know what I'll be doing this afternoon.

Electrophile Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Talking to my Mom in the hospital and hearing her sound really well certainly helps. We're hoping she can be home by Saturday, but if not, we'll just postpone Christmas until she is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1975NQ Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 My gf and her family really, really love their cat. It's a quintessential house cat. Has one of those faces that says: "I'm useless and have no clue - but am also worshipped". This cat gets presents every year, I kid you not. Don't get me wrong, I love all animals, but the whole thing is really comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
