a tasty morsel

The other day at church, I ran into a girl I had not seen in some time.  She definitely falls into acquaintance category.

Me:  How are you?

Girl:   Good.  How are you?

Me:  I’m doing well, thanks.

Girl:  You look different.

(awkward silence)

Me:  Thanks.

What’s the appropriate response here?  I mean… seriously… “You look different.”?!!

If we won’t be seeing an IKEA anytime soon, I think we should at least get Trader Joe’s.  It’s like an affordable Whole Foods… kinda.  It’s just a fun store, and we need it (like we need monkeys riding dogs).  You probably don’t even know we need it, but trust me, we do.

So it’s up to Morsel readers (both of you)  to request that Trader Joe’s put a store in our area. They don’t have escalators for your carts, but it’s still way fun.  Maybe we can get escalators for our dog riding monkeys.

I was going to blog last night, I promise.  But when I went to blog, the Internet had fallen into oblivion.  Perhaps it had run away with our phone coverage - or lack there of, which is what I had planned on blogging about.

I’d like to think that they went on some passionate rendezvous.  Leading up to this, Phone Coverage coaxed Internet slowly, yet persistently… coming just close enough and often enough to pique her interest, while at the same time, keeping the perfect balance of distance increasing desirability.  (As multitasking as Internet is, she must be female)

Then finally one day, Internet could resist no more.  What Phone Coverage had offer, Internet wanted to taste.  Yet as is often with lust, she ate too much, too fast.  So we welcomed home a sick and heartbroken system of interconnection.

So Phone Coverage is doing what often happens in these scenarios… avoiding the place.  Sprint has informed us that we’re in a coverage hole, and that we can either buy an airwave for a hundred bucks plus 5 bucks a month to strengthen coverage or leave our contract with no penalty.   We might be looking towards a different carrier… one that’s ready to settle down.
