GM's Thread About Everything/GM's Thread About Nothing (17 Viewers)

After a couple months of laying low, I'm ramping up the crazy factor again.

A friend has been wanting to set me up with her single friend, who lives about 40 miles from here. I've never met her, but have seen pictures and she's pretty attractive. I finally got around to asking her out, and she arranged to spend the weekend here with her friend. I have to pick her up and drive her down this afternoon since I'm up there for work (her office is close to my Seattle office); friend's husband will drive her back Sunday afternoon. We made a plan to go out tonight and maybe all watch the playoffs on Sunday. Everything seems ok to this point.

Then she called me at 2:45 in the morning last night asking me to come over to her house. I laughed and went back to sleep.

This will turn out well.
YES!

Why didn't you go over there? For the sake of this thread I mean.
At 2:45 I might not get out of bed if my house was on fire.
At 2:45 I've set my house on fire.

 
HELLLLLOOOOOO GMTAN!!!! DOES ANYBODY LIKE........THE INNERNETS??!!!! (pauses for rors of excitement)

Really don't have much since that other guy got killed for no reason. Yeah you know what I'm talking about. Just can't share here.

I am happy that my wife's Hanukkah party is tomorrow night and I just found out, Tuesday I think, it's in a suite at the Blues games. She probably told me a month ago, maybe, who knows. I wasn't really looking all that forward to it but the nursing crop at this place she's at now seems pretty decent. I'll probably do something stupid, almost certainly say something inappropriate, which will lead to a good story, though. I won't let you down!

Everybody walks away disappointed.

My wife texted me if it was okay to buy the boys new shoes. I replied only if she brought me a pizza from one of my favorite places. She did. Winning!!!

BTW, a lot of you are on our Christmas list for cards and don't you fret, they are being sent soon. Mrs. SLB has been working a lot of hours. My parents haven't even gotten one yet. Could be any day though, who knows!

Plane.
He's outstanding in his plain.
This is by my house. I love this time of year because I can walk through the field, and then through the woods, about 3/4 mile, to my house. Great feeling being out in the middle of nowhere.

Just got back from the farmers market. Feel like we did a really great job of overpaying for vegetables that will probably go bad before we eat them.

You haven't lived until you've had a $12 organic hand washed English cucumber named Karl shoved up your ###

 
Farmer's Markets are my favorite kind of market. Especially since they started selling beer and a whiskey vendor arrived.
Say what? I take my own.
No booze at ours but there's always a little whiskey in my coffee when I go.

We also stuck around long enough to spend $23 for an artisanal waffle and personal size organic goat cheese pizza for the boys. You know, the kids who usually just eat food they found on the ground.

:lol:

The Yuppie farmer's markets ain't made to save money, that's for sure. In-season up here, the grizzled old dudes in pick up trucks ( :unsure: ) on the side of the road have the best produce.

 
Sooooo...my flight home was cancelled due to weather. Luckily, I'm back in the condo we were in all week. No clue if the weather will let us out tomorrow. If not, I don't know where we're going to sleep. My wife is annoyed to say the least and my daughter is stoked! I'm drunk. Gonna ski again tomorrow. Wtf, I'm here.
You don't want to drive 5-5.5 hours down 395 to get home?
Didn't want to steal a car

Eta: #### no I didn't want to drive, that's why I flew

So am organic farmers market sells stuff that they grow in the dirt by planting seeds and don't add any stuff to keep the bugs off or make it bigger or taste better. It's basically just having some land and taking the time to pick it when it's ripe. And you get slightly buggy slightly smaller food that tastes almost as good.

Why does that cost more than if the same farmer buys a bunch of extra stuff to make the food bigger and better and bug free?

 
It's partly an over-correction to Raid-sprayed produce, partly a gimmick, and partly good.
Exactly. Fresh produce owns store produce but the markup is absurd. You have to trust me on this because the Bentleys were non-organic farmers for a century plus before I decided to ditch the family farm and get all citified.

My family, too. I raised and sold produce well into my 30s before I realized I was too lazy to do it anymore.

Problem now is that most produce is so hybridized and cross-bred, it's lost all of its flavor to keep it more hardy. Tomatoes are the worst crime, but it's happened across the board. So, we have an overreaction back to "heirloom" (biggest scam in the food game) #### that won't last 3 hours after the seed sprouts.
