^^ No little donut dude in Cleveland. Grant you, I haven't been to a game in a while, but all we get are overpriced crappy hot dogs.

Thanks gang it went well. The actual pre-interview gitters are the worst for me but once inside I settled down and had a great conversation.

Small claims court. Is it going to be worth ALL the work I'm preparing?

Depends on the suit in question. Is it a physical suit?? Or monetary? And further more.. Is it a well founded suit, as in grudge suit vs rectifiable matter suit..

All I wanted was a baggie of fresh hot mini donuts...ever see the guy with the little donut maker, and it makes and fries the donuts right in front of you? Yeah, I always get them when we go to a game, and the guy is usually open after the game to serve the drunks. He's one of the food trucks outside the park.
Game ends early (seriously...a 2 hour baseball game?!?) My friend and I walk all the way around the stadium to get fucking donuts (because they are better than the cold elephant ears they sell inside the stadium), and the guy is closed....
GGGRRRRRRRRRRRAAAARRRTGGGGHHHH!

We had to walk back around again to go back to the bar...I still want donuts.

I feel your pain about when you don't get the stadium food you want! Every time my mom and I would go to Yankee Stadium or Shea/Citi Field, our tradition is to get a delicious knish. It's just not a baseball game without one for us! And now where I moved--no stadium knishes. This is madness! Gonna have to start a petition.

Also--fresh hot mini donuts hmmm--now I want some! I used to get some of those in DC during holiday season!

Well founded for sure. We had renos done and have had to hire other trades to come in and finish/ fix what was already done. He won't return emails/phone calls.

Mmmmm - mini donuts. Here we can only get them at fairs, so while in general I hate fairs I sometimes go just for the mini donuts.

Every so often, I'll catch a glimpse of something Disney World, which leads me to looking at Disney stuff, and before I know it I'm an hour and a half into planning a nonexistent/temporarily impossible vacation

Just got an email from Vivid Seats, a ticket scal...ahem...reseller site saying they had specially selected events just for you.. These three events were Barry Manilow, Neil Diamond, and Bette Middler.

WTF??!! Someone's ad targeting algorithm is way off base.

Maybe you sleep walk and watch barry manilow on youtube in your sleep. Its targeting your alter ego that only comes out then. If so make sure you hide your credit cards from yourself before you buy those tickets and wonder the next day how they stole your info.

Yep, well founded... Just keep records of everything! Judges love it when we hit their courts, prepared, and organized!!

Thanks My mum is 70 now, so I guess she has by far exceeded the life expectancy they gave her when she was diagnosed in her 20's! Her diabetes is much better than it was when I was younger, since the insulin changed. So thankfully it's now a rare occurrence for her to go that low. Was a good thing I got home earlier than expected though

I'm glad that you got home at a good time!

I hate job apps that make you fill out everything that they can find by simply looking as your resume!!

Right?? My mom was diagnosed at 16. They told her she'd never live past forty.. This was in the 60's and she just lost it! She went and did every drug she could to do!! She was still fighting her addictions when she died at 55. After having five years clean and sober, and then she went off the rails again, did a shot of speed with a dirty needle and contracted MRSA. That's when I had to quit my job and provide round the clock care. And the doctors were so mean about it. But we had to work too.. It was a really rough time. I'm glad you don't have to go through any of that with your mom! At least you got THAT to make it easier.

Now I have type 2 Diabetes, and I watch my BS like a HAWK! Lol I will not repeat my mother's mistakes.

Sorry you went through such a hard time with your mum. Mine was diagnosed in the 60's as well. It doesn't cause her too many problems these days but I guess some of her other conditions may be related. She also has osteoporosis, emphysema and high blood pressure, as well as surviving breast cancer. Add to that her husband leaving her with six kids and you could say she hasn't been the luckiest person in the world!

whispering hands

Wow! Maybe not soLucky in your mind, but definitely tough as nails!! She's for sure lucky to have you, and THAT makes her the luckiest mom on the planet!
