Is it all a dream? She wakes up with a half-empty bottle of white zin on the table beside her, having self-medicated her way to sleep after another horrible shift?

Glad you're back with us. Have a drink and relax. Were you returning home after good trip?

Dark chocolate + bacon is delicious.

YES.

So well played by your husband and you. Good luck. I really had no recourse in college when a land lady needed to "pray about" letting me rent from her. Interestingly enough she prayed long enough for the deposit to clear.

Jefferson Presidential bourbon. Neat.

Just got back from the tailgate/game and put the training-for-a-half-marathon Wife to bed. Now I'm on the couch and socializing. Hi everyone.

The TX state fair has to be a unique experience.

Interesting. Is this a hot (temperature) soup?

Maybe he had a bad work week? Or some plans he didn't talk about?

I keep this.

What are your plans for this jalapeno?
