Stepdaughter’s phone is on the fritz so I reactivated an old slider until we can get hers fixed or replaced. She got a text from a classmate but isn’t sure which one since her contacts aren’t on this one.
She was overjoyed to have a legit reason to respond with “new phone who dis”

You sure that vape is nicotine and not weed? FlavRX makes a hybrid bubble gum strain or at least I've been told that they do

Why do you think everyone that buys a KristaHome(TM) gets a gift? Is so she can be assured they'll forward her mail when it inevitably gets delivered to an old address.

Best: finally seeing all these iconic things I've seen my whole life in books/pictures/tv/movies. The Lincoln monument. The Declaration of Independence. JFK eternal flame. Vietnam memorial. That famous painting of George Washington you've seen a million times. etc etc.
Worst? Lack of restaurant options made planning difficult when we were trying to cram so much in to two days.

It is awesome and inspiring. Without getting political, the architecture gets me patriotic. I lived there/around there in my twenties. Glad you had a good time.

Is this something you can see yourself doing forever? If not, it’s a waste of time and you’ll fall back into old habits, probably.

I collected pennies as a kid with idea that is give them to my son/grandson some day. Got my son a starter book last Christmas along with all the Wheaties I'd gotten in change over the years to gauge his interest. In highly surprising news, it was nada and disappointment. Grandson it is!
Speaking of inspiring, I took the family near Scranton for the long weekend.
What kind of worms you working with?

With an extra 90lbs, IMO a shock drop is an order even if some of it will come back. That's like carrying my 10yo around fulltime and then putting him down, if at least to trade for my 6yo.

popped in to a local place over the weekend to grab lunch. one of these sort of old-timey ice cream parlors with good burgers.
they had a Ms. Pac-man machine tucked away in the back corner. i had 2 quarters. figured on killing 15-20 minutes playing while the food was being prepared.
burned through both quarters in under 5 minutes.
i feel great shame.

Really? We had some great food in DC a couple of summers ago, though I suppose it depends on how picky you are. Found a great BBQ joint just walking down the street. Then found a great burger joint that brewed their own beer right in the Smithsonian area.

I have a picky daughter so need standard kids options, and my wife is on a fairly strict diet. We found places, I guess I just expected more options. For instance, we needed something quick for lunch between white house tour and capitol tour. I felt like it was either food trucks or the cafeteria in the capitol visitor center.

Yes, that was the place.
Never had to eat in the Capitol area, so I don't know what was up there. But we did do food trucks on meal, and I never complain about that. I can see if you have a restrictive diet or kids that wouldn't be as easy though.

Ugh. Shooting at the school where two of my best friends' daughters go to and where one's wife works. So far, only hard info is that a student shot himself.
But with reports that the FBI was investigating a threat in the county, there's a decent chance the kid was planning on killing other students but accidentally shot himself first.

This is the best way to have it IMO.
I usually go with this:
2 cups cooked rice
1 lb cooked chicken (or whatever protein and amount you want)
1 red pepper (diced). You can add more if you want
10 oz peas
10 oz sugar snap peas
Corn (optional and whatever amount you want)
2-3 eggs (scrambled)
2 bunches green onions (chopped)
1 fried rice seasoning packet
Soy sauce (see packet directions)
Oil (see packet directions)
Spicy Szechuan sauce (optional, but so worth it)
Get all the veggies cooked in a large deep skillet.
Add chicken
Add rice
Add seasoning mixture
Add scrambled eggs
Stir up everything
Delicious.

take your 4-5 cups of leftover rice from the fridge, crumble it up in a bowl so its not clumped together.
dice into small pieces about 2/3 cup each of carrot and celery. dice up some leftover meat, prefer chicken, but anything works, i used ham yesterday for example, about 2/3 cup. If you have fresh peas or frozen peas, grab a 1/2 cup of those. I diced up fresh peas in a pod.
take 3 eggs and beat like you would for scrambled eggs, set aside.
need near cooking area: soy sauce, sesame oil, season rice wine vinegar, garlic powder, ginger powder
you need a non stick frying pan or wok. you'r going to do two batches of "half" your material.
pour in a couple TB oil into your pan, set on med high or high heat. Once oil is hot, add half your rice, stir it around to make sure the oil is coated all the rice, stir fry the rice for a couple minutes. Add the meat and veggies, stir fry for another two minutes. push the rice apart in the middle so there's a hole in the middle, pour in half the egg mixture and make scrambled eggs until firm in the middle section. Once that's firm, stir fry that all together with the rice mix, then add several dashes of soy sauce, a little drizzle of sesame oil, stir fry around to incorporate into all the rice. sprinkle with some garlic and ginger, keep stir frying. let it set for about a minute without stirring. add a drizzle of rice vinegar, stir fry, then put into a large bowl.
repeat this process, then combine all the rice in the big bowl, garnish with some thinly diced green onion if you want to make it fancy. You can make it saltier by adding soy sauce at this point, or just serve it as is and let people add soy sauce to their own tastes.

So what's your play?
My 10yo is on the precipice if this stuff, given what his peers are talking about.

you punch every one of those 10 year old square in their face, is what you do
my oldest is 9 in a class full of 10 year olds. i hear one of them talking about taking a marijuana and they're getting a black eye.
