And now I want a bagel. Thanks for that! lol Too bad I have to be gluten-free. Plus, I'm sick, so I can't even go on the (probably fruitless) search for a gluten-free bagel. Drat, you! As if I wasn't suffering enough! lol
Schnujo's now Cujo -- Run! Author Icon - Your reaction is funny, but I'm sad/sorry you're sick. Dear God, please heal schnujo completely in Jesus' name, amen.
Thanks, spirit dog prowling 4premium+ Author Icon! I've been sick since a week ago last Saturday, so approaching 2 weeks now. Annoying. Thankfully, my friend/neighbor has a really strong immune system so he comes and checks on me daily, usually at least twice.

He's gotten me groceries, meds, and run errands for me. I really appreciate him, but it seems like a big ask to make him run around for gluten-free bagels when he doesn't have a car. lol Especially because his car was stolen from my parking space! Eek! I know it's not my fault, but I still feel a bit responsible for that. That was like 2 yrs ago and he just never bought another because they are expensive and it's cheaper for him to take the bus and train, especially with his student and disability discounts.

He's also a disabled vet like me, though he got out paralyzed from the waist down. He was told he'd never walk again, but decided that wouldn't be his fate. He's a super mega genius, so he started researching medical journals, taking classes on the human body, etc. He finally came up with a surgery that he thought would work and told the VA surgeon. The surgeon said it only had a 50% chance of working. But he said since the other 50% chance meant he'd just stay paralyzed, it seemed like great odds to him, so they tried it. He doesn't run, but if you met him, you'd never know he'd been paralyzed. He doesn't walk with even a limp!

Obviously, he still has other issues from the injury and his military service, but he is a miracle and a genius and I'm so grateful to have him as a friend!

From the title and GIF, this looks like a follow up to yesterday.
Annette Author Icon - It is, just because the dice picked a similar article today. It happens.

One of our favorite things to do when we visited France some years back was our morning walk to pick up a baguette and some cheese for breakfast. Much better than our normal heavier American breakfasts.

And we don't live near a good bakery at home.

After perusing your post, I couldn't pass this up... *Rolling*

🌝 HuntersMoon Author Icon - I love your awesome posts and incredibly accurate studies
I'm not a morning person. It's 22:42 after a longish day. Am I going to sleep? Not soon.

That was actually my name tag at the movie theater for a while. My boss thought it was fun/funny to give us all name tags reflecting anything but our name. Apparently, I said, "Well, actually..." a LOT, so he put that on my tag for a while.

Then he put "Slooooow" on there because I was great with the customers -- always had the highest sales in concessions, but I wasn't the fastest. IDK what you want from me, dude. When we had promotions, I would always double and sometimes triple the person in 2nd place.

Do you want me great or do you want me fast because I can't be both. Also, fast might not be an option because IDK if I can give up being great. Hahaha!
Facts? What are those? *Laugh*

There's authentic and then there's...
🌝 HuntersMoon Author Icon - That. Give me THAT.
🌝 HuntersMoon Author Icon - that reminds me of that movie Big Trouble in Little China. Supposed to be a serious film but had special effects like that. Always cracks me up.

I feel the limits of calculus.
Annette Author Icon - Excellent! Calculus functions well as an approach to humor.
Both y'all's humor is derivative.

So funny when Gen Alpha people write about their trauma.
Annette Author Icon - Right? Try coming home to an empty house and drinking out of the garden hose sometime.
Waltz in the Lonesome October Author Icon - You had a garden hose? I was sucking on the spigot and scraping my head on the brick.

Not a euphemism, but it'd be good one lol
