And deport them to …Oklahoma?

Chicken-egg; post-space…post.

What makes a scent good is how it smells on you , the way it interacts with your own chemistry, and how it makes you feel. If he likes it and he feels good and more confident wearing it, that’s worth it.

Really? Strump and Smelania?

That’s why they spray water on fruit trees, to insulate them at 32F, right?

Helps provide tone and emotion to the conversation - the things you get when listening to someone speak and the reason text messages can be so difficult sometimes.

Sitting in a rocking swivel patio chair while shaving the dog and I leaned forward to get his belly. The chair started to tip. I startled and i was able to stop it from tipping over, but then it felt like my back locked up and i couldn’t move. Husband helped me into the house and i missed several days of work. I did the exact same things three years in a row. I still have the chairs. Dog died and that’s likely the only reason it stopped after 3x.

How old is he?

Very cool! Cat tail.

Did you watch The Bear? I think we made beef sandwiches three weeks in a row while we were watching it.

I’m cold and that looks warm and delicious!

They’re all bad, but Firefox is terrible about this. Twice already in January I’ve had to make new passwords to pay bills. I was in my car when i did it and now i have no idea what those new passwords are. I’m so sick of letters, numbers, and special characters! No one is out there attempting to guess my gas company login password - they’re buying it from someone who hacked the gas company.

I match your preferred timeline and wouldn’t change it. Happy that my childhood and young adult life is documented mostly by still photos with no backup.

Offered to take my adult kids to the beach -we will rent a pet-friendly house that’s big enough for everyone if you get your dog fixed before we go; we don’t want to be dealing with dog in heat at a beach house.

We booked the house. The dog did not get fixed. They came anyway but left a day early because…yep, the dog went into heat.

About an hour after they left, son called - “Wow! That immigration checkpoint was not as quick and easy as you described it!”

Apparently, standing on the side of the road with a pocketful of weed while your wife holds the dog and feds search your car can be unsettling.

“Sir, do you know why our dog alerted on your car?”

The bond that keeps OP and their son together is family, but the bond that keeps you tied to your family is free food?

Try to think of it as your part time job to pay for school. At least you also benefit from the food and such, you kind of set your own hours, and you’re not dealing with the general public like a retail job.

I don’t know anything about Romanian culture. Is that wife plus younger sex partner kind of an older norm? There’s a term in French or Italian - something about happy hours or 6 o’clock girl, something like that, for the fling time between work and dinner with the family.

When I first came here, I was so jaded, with the expectation that every account was a bot or an asshole. Seeing the actual conversation among humans has been nice.

Looks good. How long did it take?
