Strange Words at Night

I like to randomly browse different types of cities and smaller towns and get to know them through the utilization of Craigslist's "For Sale" section.  Tonight I ended up in London.  (I normally like the small towns, though.) Blew my mind you could buy buy/sell cigarettes on CL, let alone someone might be offering to DELIVER them to you, that's INSANE.  I can't even imagine. The price was 50 pounds, which might be worth just paying to have someone stop by and talk to me.  In "US Dollars" it's $40.17, which means I could probably budget for it and I'd get a carton of pretty nice cigarettes out of the deal, too. I wonder what they mean by "Genuine" though. ... Perhaps, yes, please DO post them quickly!  Dispatch them most urgently!

Meta AF.

Apparently, and I only found out about this tonight, this is a thing in a picnic basket that hooks on...ugh, I'll just show you: Pie Shelf is Displayed.  The metal parts are hooks that attach to the top of the basket to hold a pie. It's for holding pies on to the basket above all of the food so it doesn't smash it.  This is the most plush, luxurious thing I can think of to do to a picnic basket.  It's already a great thing, then you go America on it and suddenly it's gotta have accessories to set itself apart from thousands of years of basket makers around the globe. FREE THE PIE SHELVES OF THE WORLD!!! **pEEEEEEEace!!!

I was talking about how offensive I find it to not grind pot before smoking it.  I might have been high (definitely was) when I typed it out to the person I was talking to, and I might have been a tad dramatic.

Yes, a giant bright pink heart dispenser for putting bright pink sticky notes into.  It was an amazing gift to me from my husband.  Probably one of my most favorite gifts ever from him. The topic came up after someone sent me a picture of a note they took down, writing out someone's address.  They had used black Sharpie on a torn piece of paper.  It was incredibly unlike their normal character, and so we continued talking about how much stress he must be under.  It was a good conversation.

Helping a guy with almost nothing in his kitchen decide whether or not to eat a can of green beans that had a "use by" date 18 months ago.

The question asked was: Does anyone have a leather hole-punch I could borrow? I just bought a new belt, but it's a bit too large. D

My son said this to me.  Right now he's poor.  Like, squatter poor.  I'm surprised we're able to chat on Facebook Messenger, honestly - he's that broke.  His dad pays for his phone - which is about the only thing he's ever done for him.  Anyway, so that's what my son said ... desperate for coffee...he found a Starbucks Via ... way in the back of some drawer, probably ... but now he's sad because he doesn't have any milk.  Coffee is so important.  Man.

What if My Newly-in-High School Son Has to Go to the Homecoming Dance in 3 days and I just found out?

I always feel like it makes me racist when I type fro instead of for.

Conversation with a guy. We were talking about extended power outages from storms and how important water would be in that situation.

I'm contemplating using a Hungry Man box (it was in the trash) as a palette for my paints. I am out of paper plates. I feel very tacky right now.
