I know I will not be able to find a day care to take him while he has durable medical equipment. Who knows when Grace will be coming home?

Gee, why would you be stressed?

Childcare is hugely stressful with one child with no complications. My friend with triplets stayed home with them for the first 14 months (she'd never worked before - 3 other kids) but when they did put them in daycare finally (because she was burned out) it was very expensive.

Have you looked into a nanny? (not being pushy, just curious.)

Free lunch day again here at the cubicle farm. The content of said lunch is a "surprise".

I have an unholy love of Arby's curly fries.

This conversation reminds me of this week's Top Chef. I would not have thought of an empanada as fast food, but they are way better than burgers, imo.

I'd forgotten about Sonic. If I had one remotely nearby, I'd pick their green chile cheesburger over A&W's. I miss those.

now I am really hungry , people.

Oh, man. One of my coworkers brought in tamales from one of the places in his (predominantly Mexican) neighborhood. Soooo good.

When I really wanted something utterly disgusting for me in college, I'd drive across town to the lone Arby's and get a beef 'n cheddar with a jamocha shake.

I can just feel my digestive system recoil at that now

There was something not right with the Arby's cheese. Used to eat there all the time when I'd come over to the US to work summers.

Really liked their curly fries, though.

Can someone give me dispensation to have a nap? I'm needing one in the worst way.

In-N-Out is the best fast food. Hands down. I don't have a fry contention. Just a categorical In-N-Out is the best.

I went to In-N-Out in Vegas, and finally figured out my order (animal-style burger, well-done fries), and it was so good!

And now I think I'm going to have to get fast food for linner. (I just had a big snack, so lunch and dinner will likely merge.)

Really liked their curly fries, though.

I'd forgotten those. Yeah, they were good.
