It’s been fun. There’s nothing like saying “Hey Dad, DO NOT SEND YOUR ADULT DAUGHTER BEAR PORN. IT IS NEVER OKAY. I DON’T WANT ANY EXCUSES. Thank you.”
Badass. This is what my Step-Dad taught me and it has served me well personally and professionally. It also helps me to set an example as a manager. I don't work crazy hours, but I do work hard when I am working. There's no bullshit going on if there's a deadline to beat.
Pizza Cave is very good pizza and the new location has a wonderful view and a bar. Please give Turcotte another shot. Their fries are incredible and the hot sandwiches are loved by everyone in my family. Maybe they had an off day? The service can be less than awesome if they are short staffed. They regularly carry hanger steak in the butcher case, which I pick up every time I’m there. Local rancher.
I think it’s better, but that is just based on the menu creativity. If you’re just going for meat by the pound you may disagree with me. The Q is solid, but they also serve brunch. My kind of place.
It’s interesting when you do have to face it. I have an Uncle who refuses to accept his brother because he is gay. He blames every misstep his brother makes on his “lifestyle” because looking at his own sexuality and behavior is too uncomfortable, methinks. Or, he’s just a bigot. Probably the latter.
Families and food are fucked up. My husband won’t eat the last one of anything in a package for fear of being the one that took the last piece of whatever. So, we sometimes have a bunch of randoms. I am always watching calories and sometimes buy foods that I know he will not like because they aren’t the “real” version. He was recently offended when I asked him not to eat the “pizza” I made because he would not like it. I offered to make him a full fat/meat/cheese pizza and he declined. Still annoyed. It’s a no win situation.
It will. My husband thought that if it is below freezing outside, you have to use emergency heat on the heat pump. I hit the fucking roof when I got the bill. Then I started my campaign to demonstrate how a heat pump works. He still doesn’t believe me. Because reasons.
I measured the bowl and bought a pizza pan from Amazon that I foil and lay on top. Works great. It’s been a few years so I don’t have the exact link, but it shouldn’t be hard to measure that bowl if your husband is around.
I’m just starting down the fucked up perimenopausal road, as documented in the mental health thread, and estrogen deficiency will fuck with your heart rhythms big time and it’s rarely discussed. Just posting to say that I’m with on this journey with you. I’d look for a menopause specialist in your area first and get your symptoms checked out by them.
