@Purpsy: Yeah, it is fast food... pretentious fast food :3
No, Tim Horton's isn't so popular in the US. I have seen a couple of their stores, and I've seen their brand of coffee on the shelves in the grocery once in a while, but they are not like some of the other chains here


@Koah: She sounds authentic, which is wonderful and rare. She sounds like what I want to be like when I grow up XD ... but I keep feeling responsible for taking care of the house and my family instead of completely following my passions... :(

I love all of her hobbies. <3 So I wouldn't be sad if she was serious. However, She has a lot of everything. and she invests a fortune in it all. She had 2 sewing machines set up, surrounded by piles of fabric. The sewing machines were a minimum of 4 grand each. o_o"

Tim Hortons is leaking down the border. lol. While I was in Michigan they opened 2 in the lower part of the state. And I heard of one in North Dakota. So I think they're making their way down. The U.S. is saturated in coffee shops.


@Wildfire: I feel that completely! Her authentic personality is amazing. But I do see why she is the way she is. She spent her youth in a career and did a botchy job of raising her kids. I've heard horror stories of her sons. And her 40 yr old son was living with them and he was horrible to her. As a parent, I mean mugged the sh-- out of him for his absolute disrespect to his mother. //shutters//
I see why she'd want someone out of her household to inherit her hobbies. He probably sees her tools as a profit when she passes.

@Wildfire: And this is why I love our morning coffee talks. You get it. <3 The stories I've heard of her kids are bad. But I've only heard amazing stories of her.

I'm on my second cup of coffee now. :3

unrelated note:
I found a 'prep for college' book from 1946, I've been reading it this weekend. It's amazing. Such a weird find from a thrift store. I'm in love with this book right now.

@Vixen: Hello~ How are you today? c:

Silence, the White Mage is now speaking.

@Koah: LOL - yeah, well, in this case, it helps that I lived (am living?) it. :3
That sounds like an amazing book! We have a grammar book (I think) here from probably the same time period (It has been a while since I've looked at it) - it's astounding to see how things have changed over the years! :3


@Vixen: Well hello there! Good morning. How are you today?

@Fading kings: And hello to you too! Sunburn is rough :( I hope it's not too horrible! Did you at least have fun in the getting of it? XD

@Purpsy: It took me longer to get through the riddles than I'd like to admit too.


... everyone stopped by while I was off getting... breakfast? lunch? brunch? ... food. :3
