At the platform on the way to the train I spotted a very smartly dressed young man. He had a navy jacket, jeans rolled up at the bottom to capri length, and a pair of penny loafters with no socks.
As I passed him I noticed a silver tint coming from his loafers and stopped dead, turned and asked, "Are those nickels in your loafers?" His friend brought his hand to his mouth and stifled a laugh. He said, "They're actually Yen, so I call them my yenny loafers". I laughed and said, "I LOVE IT".
I fucking love this thread! It makes for so much entertainment because its not all one topic! I just sent an email to the entire building about free Slurpees at 7-11. Now I feel bad for the store clerk here in town. They may be bombarded. )
Friday mornings I always have to get gas before work, so of course I make it my chocolate donut and fountain diet coke for breakfast day. Today, the clerk looked at my bump and asked if I should really be feeding my baby that. I got red faced and didn't think of a good comeback until I was 5 minutes down the road.

I would have paid for it and then thrown it at him.

Super duper rude. Not their place at all.
Totally random--- after reading the FFFC board, I want sponge bob mac and cheese with hamburger and peas.... This after I vowed to cut back on the carbs and eat better because I am done gaining weight.
DH wants to take me out on a date tomorrow night. I want to tell him that I want mac and cheese and to set up an air mattress in the living room, and stuff my face while we watch a rented movie. - My ideal date night right now.

Yeah, I guess I just don't get it. Even IF I had thoughts about what people decided to buy to eat, I would never say anything to them.

Last Christmas DH was given a Mac & Cheese cookbook. We have not made anything out of it yet. But thought it was interesting.

seriously.... a Mac and Cheese cook book!! I am obsessed with Mac and cheese. I love it. Had some a couple of weeks ago with smoked brisket on top. (Wiping the drool from my mouth)

I got a super awesome deal on the lightweight Chicco travel system yesterday. I went to the customer service desk to see if they could find me any of the KeyFit 30s anywhere since we need a new seat. Target clearanced out the only color they carried in store and all stores within a 100 mile radius were out. Their online department wouldn't honor the $20 off of $100 coupon since it said in store only. The store manager was awesome and gave me an extra discount to make the difference between getting the travel way less of an expense. And the color is way cuter

Is this a requirement?! I didn't get that memo either ;-) one time I was at Walmart and the guy asked me how many kids I had, based on the contents of my cart. Uhm pizza rolls and capri suns don't have an age limit buddy!
I had a sausage, egg & cheese croissant for breakfast & I'm really wanting another! Figures today would be the day DH would remember to grab his prepared foods for the day, I want his damn sandwich too!!

My MIL is a teacher so she is also bored this summer. She's been painting LO's nursery this week. Last night I went home and almost ugly cried because I'm so happy/excited. I'm glad I was alone...
My office mate never wears any other color than black, she uses a lot of unnecessary vocabulary to make herself sound really smart, she brags all the time and if something doesn't go her way, she instantly runs to her bosses office to tell him. She thinks she's hot shit and gets mad when other people don't act like she is.
Also, we hired this guy about a month ago and he thinks he's way funnier/cooler than he really is. We have this new messenger/chat room thing we use at work and he's constantly butting in on conversations trying to make jokes that aren't funny. Also, on his second day, he told me that he would tell me if my baby was ugly.

Both of them sound crazy. You should randomly stop him in the hall and say.. I just thought you would want to know, that outfit is ugly.
Oh, also, I hate the nights my husband closes at work and isn't home until after 10. One of my dogs will bark every time he hears any kind of noise the whole night thinking it's my husband coming home, which last night was like every 5 minutes. That, in turn, gets the other dog barking.
Ever since @purplehippo19 mentioned she drinks vanilla coke (like, months ago), I have been looking for it in stores, and I'm really upset I can't find it anywhere. I only saw a 12 pack of vanilla coke zero, and I just can't commit to that many cans when I don't know how the calorie free version tastes.

I hate full flavor pop and I've always been a zero/diet drinker. I think the vanilla zero is delish. But thats coming from an avid diet drinker.

You could always purchase vanilla syrup (like coffee shops have) & add that to your coke in an amount to your liking!

Oh and I just laughed at someone trying to get into BRU 5 minutes before they open. Sorry not sorry that she could not read a sign and wait in her cooler car for 5 minutes. She is now standing outside the store in the heat with her say about 2yo daughter.

I don't hate full flavor soda, but I do drink a lot of diet. Maybe I will give it a shot!

I've done that before. It's never worth the trouble to try and get my son back in the car for less than 10 minutes. Once he is out he wants to run!

Hey Midwest
Definitely! Hearing people say soda is so weird to me.

Hey Midwest
People in central and upstate NY actually call it pop too. I got made fun of a lot when I went to college up there. And let's not even start on the "accent" I have .

I already have coke in the house, guess vanilla syrup is on the shopping list! Great idea!
As we are sitting in the waiting room waiting for the 1 hour to be up for my GD test my poor DH is passed out in the chair next to me lol. I guess my rolling around at night is giving us both sleepless nights. Poor thing.
I'm lactose intolerant. If it's been a while since I've pooped, I purposefully give myself diarrhea by chugging a glass of milk. The only issue is that if I'm seriously backed up, it just makes me crazy bloated and painfully gassy, so I don't do the milk thing if it's been more than 4 days.

I have been sleeping in our bed one night a week and the other nights on the couch. Poor DH is not getting lucky and to top it off not in the same bed.
Just with both of us, a body pillow, my belly, and not being able to get comfy. It just ends up not being fun.
So I go to bed with him and then end up on the couch. Where I toss and turn all night. So he does not get a good night sleep without me there or I end up pushing him almost out of the bed with all my tossing and turning there. A PREGNANT LADY CAN NOT WIN HERE!
I want to whine selfishly, and this seems as good a place as any to do it.
DH has determined that he must have an allergy or sensitivity or something to nightshade plants. (If you don't know, and most people don't, nightshade includes tomatoes, most peppers, eggplant, white potatoes, some pretty common spices, etc.). DH has pretty bad eczema on his hands, like, they're always dry, cracking, peeling, itchy, achy - it's miserable for him, and he's been to a thousand doctors and tried a million home remedies to fix it. It's been three years. About a week ago, he came across this nightshade thing, tried cutting it all out, and it actually seems to be helping. But it's a pain in my ass. I know I'll get used to it and it'll get easier to adapt our usual grocery list and rotation of dinners, but yikes. I also know it's totally worth it if it helps him, because on top of the pain and physical discomfort of it for him, he's an attorney and he's now super self-conscious about shaking hands and everything else, so it's effecting his self-esteem and that's even tougher.
But I just posted something in that other thread about mixing chili with mac and cheese, and then got really bummed because I love chili and now DH can't eat it and I'm not going to bother making it for just myself (DD doesn't like it). DH has been lamenting all the things he can't eat, and I've been giving him a hard time about being so negative and keep reminding him of all the good stuff he can still eat, but I'm secretly also lamenting all the things he can't eat, I guess.
Re: Friday Randoms
And also I am very sad that I only saw regular chips ahoy cookies at the store instead of the ones @famousEA has.
As I passed him I noticed a silver tint coming from his loafers and stopped dead, turned and asked, "Are those nickels in your loafers?" His friend brought his hand to his mouth and stifled a laugh. He said, "They're actually Yen, so I call them my yenny loafers". I laughed and said, "I LOVE IT".
I would have paid for it and then thrown it at him.

If you run out of stuff to clean, I have a whole house that needs help.
I am envious of anyone getting to do remodeling projects. I really dislike our bathrooms and kitchen.
I am being nice.
