Eat or Talk?

October 8, 2011 // Posted in Eats and Drinks, Life (Tags: , , , ) |  Comments Off

For a first date, would you rather go to a restaurant and eat? Or go to a show/movie/concert? Or would you rather just go somewhere nice and semi-private to talk?

For me, if I am serious about a guy, I want to have a chance to talk and get to know him better without a lot of noise and distractions. And I do not like to eat in front of people I don’t know. I seriously do not understand why so many first dates involve dinner. That is the LAST thing I want to deal with on a first date.

Flat Rate Shipping

When is the last time you had to ship anything at the post office? I can tell you it has been a very long time since I had to find a box, put stuff in it and then haul it to the post office.

Nowadays they are making it easier for you to deal with the box end of it. They have free boxes in several sizes that you can use to ship your stuff. Anything that you can cram into the box goes for a flat rate. How cool is that?

Different Kinds of Clubs

Have you ever been in an unfamiliar town and wanted to go out for a few hours? I was in Chicago and wanted to go to some blues clubs. I told the taxi driver to take me to a good club. I didn’t even know the names of any clubs but figured it was Chicago – any taxi driver should know these things. Well, the jackass took me to a club and let me out and when I went inside it turned out to not be a blues club but a strip club. I still had a lot of fun though!

Getting Real Tired of the Shit

When did my job turn into this? I’m nothing but a shit collector around here. Enough!

Lightning Strike

Unbelievable what happened to me this morning. My house got hit by lightning and it blew up all my TVs, my Playstation and my computer. Thank God my lap top was not plugged into the wall or it would have been struck, too. What a pain in the ass to have to deal with replacing all this stuff and paying a big fat deductible to the insurance company just to get my stuff back.
