bourbon bacon popcorn.

WHY DID I NOT KNOW THIS EXISTED?

AND THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW!!!

My joy is so great that only ASSCAPS can express it.

We really don't need any more spoiled, sheltered children in Brooklyn, Allyson.

I'd be happy to take yours and toss them into a migrant farmer camp in the middle of August.

Then it's SURVIVOR: BROOKLYN SSSS(spoiled suburban sheltered shithead)

Maybe Detroit?

Or Syracuse has some seriously sketchy neighborhoods. Then we could watch them dig their way out of the snow before getting offed.

I had to drop off Leif yesterday. The school bus had a substitute driver and it rumbled right past the bus stop. A massive line of pickup trucks, SUVs, and minivans with my Civic hatchback in the middle. The kids are already getting big enough that disembarking from the Civic (2-door) is not a quick or elegant process. Next car will definitely be a 4-door, Em is going to be outgrowing the backseat before long too.

NY trains smelt fine, as I recall, but the stations could be dodgy. Urine.

Indeed.

I had some really good bacon popcorn caramel situation last year -- like Cracker Jacks with extra bacon. Mmmm.

Try our neighborhood Allyson. Precious Prince and Princess don't get dropped off at the local high school in an SUV. They drive their own SUV. Or Mercedes. Working class kids do ride the bus, because Mommy and Daddy are to busy working to drive them. Middle school princes and princesses get dropped off in parents cars.

Oh and ita. I'd totally call him on his personal cell to get the info for the meetings.

I could just scan it and email it to you....

Could you? To my profile address?

New Guy is checking email on his day off! Excellent. Turns out there was a buttload of stuff I needed to have to hand for the 11:00, but now I have it.

Thankfully unnecessary. And I'm trying to pretend personal cell info doesn't exist, even though they all have mine by now. I still don't answer at work. I believe, in general, work cells should be answered during work hours.

On the train, OTOH, there's often a urine smell. And occasionally a very bad poo-poo smell.

I seem to remember the Purple line being especially bad for this. I rarely notice an issue with the Green or Pink, which is what I take these days.

I think the Red line is the worst, as it's by far the longest rail line in the CTA, so homeless people board it to sleep.

To fight this, they have a new rule that if you ride a train to the end of the line, you can't just get back in a train going the opposite direction, but instead have to pay again. I think that's helped a little.

OK, I'll do that on my lunch break....
