I am almost 40. A single father with custody of teenage daughters. I work six days a week. I also have classes. Went back to college. This semester runs straight through May and I immediately start Summer 1 courses through June.

Tell me how you have no life?

And you have time to post in the Cave ?!?!?!?!?  :bow2: :bow2: :bow2:

"Sammie" reminds me of Rachael Ray, whom I now loathe........


Just now loathe?  I haven't liked her since the beginning.  Well only when she talks.

Is that a chain?  I've seen a Mimi's Cafe around here.

It is Mimi's Cafe.....must be a chain.

The amount of food that you get is ridiculous. There were 3 of us and we each got something different....but decided we would have done well just getting 2 things and then get dessert....they had a chocolate brownie thing that sounded scrumptious and I wanted it.

There must have been a can of tuna on each half of my sandwich. Plus fries, big slice of pineapple, honeydew, orange slices and red grapes came with it. I only ate half the sandwich and some fries and my fruit and I was full.

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Well, I thought she was kind of cutesy until about a year ago. For some reason, it sunk in what a mindless wench she is. Besides, I can cook better than her any day.....

lol  join the club!  Mia & I kinda started one, unintentionally.  haha   :(

Can I be the VP and Sergeant-at-Arms?  I can enforce the "no-fun rule" with sadistic vigor. 

In fact, I'm so not fun this week I'm coming in on my day off, just to whore myself for the corporate dollar (or about 900 of them at the doubletime rate).

Only if you promise to serve black and tans for breakfast.  I got BS'ed a few times last outage for discussing going to breakfast and ordering eggs and beer after work.  But such is life when you work 6 pm-6 am.

BTW--all the waitresses in the club have to dress like the waitresses at the Tilted Kilt--a new place I discovered on the frozen Iowa tundra...

Now if we can just get some of our lovely CC women to dress like this:

I can probably swing black and tans.

Ever had a Black Castle? Half Guinness, half Newcastle. Good stuff.

I am SO going to have one tonight.  Aw, hell--why stop at just one?  It's a five-hour no-booze rule for a reason.

I need to see in writing why you think you should be considered for such positions.  

Gifts would also be appreciated.

Yep--there was a Mimi's in Huntington Beach when I lived in Cali.  Nice weekend breakfasts--awesome omelettes.

The son of the owner of the chain ended up opening a place on Beach Blvd. called the Lazy Dog Cafe.  I hope it's still in business--it was a VERY nice place with good prices.
