The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

I went to the local pizza place and grabbed a grinder for lunch, which is very out of character.

But it's delicious. I'm not sure if its a New York thing, but they use these toasted sesame grinder rolls that are out of this world.

Gary gave up leaven bread for Lent.

Out here they go by Grinder, Torpedo, Sub/Submarine, Hoagie, et al.

Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. It is a beautiful day after a week of On and Off rain. The morning constitutional with Miss Maggie, Max, Mary Lou and Mike was nothing short of perfect. Sunny, but cool, everything was emerald green from the recent rains. The walk defined pleasant.

Maggie, Max, Mike, Mary Lou and Gary are home kicking back in the patio. The dogs are wrestling and we are drinking coffee and watching The View. Everything is popping and the poppies and roses are blooming. It is a spectacularly nice day.

Happy National Puppy Day Maggie!

How is this week not over yet? Another hour or so to go. Ugh.

My wife's one employee put her resignation in this week, so all her work will fall on my wife until they find a replacement. My supervisor also put her resignation in this week, and being the most senior in the group, I'm expecting an increased workload, as well. Double ugh.

That said, I could totally eat a sub/hoagie/grinder/po'boy/torpedo/blimp/etc right now.

You guys work in the White House?

Gary is taking a break from processing. Mary Lou collected and prepared some Naval Oranges, of which Mary Lou and Gary are snacking upon while watching cable news. Gary is toying with pouring Mary Lou and Gary a glass of vino. We haven’t had any wine in over a week.

WHAT! Is everything okay? Are you feeling bad, have you been to the doctor?

Maybe.. I know a lot of people would jump at it, but I see travel and very long hours. Ehhhh...

About two weeks ago Gary got a bug. A few days after Gary got ill ... Mary Lou got it. It took her down pretty hard she is finally getting back to 100%. We are enjoying a nice Roussanne from Temecula. It goes well with the oranges.

Glad you're on the mend!

WTF is a "grinder" in a gastronomic context?

A sub.

Yes. And not the same thing as Grindr.

We call 'em hoagies. (Sandwiches, not dogs.)

None of youse called it a wedge, which is its proper name!

I spent a few hours at a college fair in the Bronx today. Talked to dozens of high school students and had cold pizza for lunch. Drove under the subway tracks to get to and from the highway.

So when I tells you it's a wedge, it's a friggin' wedge, you get me?

PS - My advice to you hosers: don't drive in the Bronx if you don't have to.

Remember when Subway used to wedge their bread though? That was the worst.

And I’m up for the fourth time since 10 PM. Cutting teeth is no joke.

I'm upright working towards awake.
I'd happily give up Saturday.
Got YouTube on the puter yesterday.
Slowly getting it set up.

Headache free and ready for the weekend! Breakfast with my mom and my aunts this morning followed by a few errands then hopefully a movie and late lunch with a friend. Game Night? Tomb Raider? Red Sparrow? Probably Tomb Raider since the others won’t lose anything watching later on a smaller screen. I like to see the big action films at the theater...
