I will likely need to adopt this way of thinking as well but reading is the only thing I have left that is committment-based, if that makes any sense.

yeah man, I kind of feel the same way. I can normally sense this stuff pretty early though but unlike films or tv series once I start a book I feel this strange sensation where I MUST finish it. Artemis

I agree with this. Me and David seem to have a game of "winner ping pong" going on and I too like to see either you or the animal welfare guys get a W every now and then.

when I am in my apartment I am able to tune it out provided I am not sitting directly next to the window and I suppose this is kind of like a city type of person, which I guess I am one of now. I miss

oh I would hate that sort of dining time. When I was a wastoid in college it was common for everyone to go eat and 24 hour joints after the bars but it wasn't just a normal thing for people to go out dining

what sort of meal prep do you do?

I was having a "few beers" with some friends the other day and was noting how beer is the only beverage on earth that makes you thirsty...for more beer. It is refreshing, but also has this aftertaste

yeah to quote another once very wealthy person in David Lee Roth; Money can't buy you happiness, but it can rent you yacht right next to happiness

I am guessing a lot of adhesive was involved, especially for those books across the top of the arch. i'm sure more than one person has had the bright idea to remove one of those. That was the first thing

yes. I have a job IRL so waking up from a job and then needing to do my actual job is not the best day!

Was Radio Shack ever a stressful job? Maybe it was because I only started shopping there during the corporate downfall but to me that seemed like an incredibly laid-back place to work.

That's very nice for you to say. I think Nadi has a great life but she doesn't understand how good it really is.

well if you ever discover a particular dish that you think is a gem please tell me what that is. I am mostly completely unimpressed with vietnamese food.

yeah I know. This past week we had a guy do 5 strikes in a row along with 2 in a row in the same game and he ended with a 201 (which isn't great considering the 7 out of 12 being the best you can possibly

this is particularly true with bowling. Normally, when I meet a good bowler they are not good at anything else...not that there is anything wrong with that but they become hyper competitive about this

there are several people that do exactly that. They never bowl...always have drinks!

it could be a lot less expensive than this as well. It is funny to me that they tell you the costs before hand and present it in an almost sheepish kind of way like they are apologizing to you that an

that's a really good deal man. I'm surprised to hear it is that low. This with insurance or just the normal fee?

I think docs for humans or dogs should err on the side of caution. Don't ring the alarm bells until you are absolutely certain. The first doc unnecessarily had me preparing for Nadi's death.

wow, that's excessive. I remember when I lived in the states that going to the vet for anything at all started at $100 or so just to talk to the vet for a bit then anything else you did had add on fees
