My first car was *almost* that same color 1995 Dodge Neon. I instead got a 1996 Chevy Beretta (in black rose metallic, basically the same color as the Ford Probe shown earlier).

LOL my grocery store is all full of retirees whenever I shop! We regularly make the kind of eye contact that says “I can’t find shit!” since they rearranged the store 3 times in 3 years. Read more
This. Can’t order produce at all. Can’t use coupons. Stuff on the app is always a mysteriously different selection than in the store. This is the one instance in which the online shopping experience is worse than in person. Read more

Yep, I am up and done w/work about an hour sooner than you so I am also used to eating early. Plus I lived with my dad through and after college for a while. Definitely got used to eating by 5:30.

I think Kroger properties had a stronger presence in the central & southern part of the state. Mariano’s mostly moved into buildings left empty by Dominick’s going under. Northern IL is Jewel Osco (Albertsons) which appears to survive the merge. Read more
Well, IL just passed a law Read more

State Farm tried to get me to add on their safe driver’s discount, which would involve having some plug-in (or my phone via bluetooth) monitor me while driving. When the agent described all the things it took note of, he frankly was not surprised when I turned it down. Read more
