Why are you falling on your elbow constantly?

Are you a professional wrestler? Is that you Charlotte Flair?

I should have been while I had the metal plate and screws in... they would have hurt someone if I whacked them with the reinforced elbow!

Had a baby, quit my job. I’ve been at home for the last three weeks with my family and life is good.

That's awesome. Sounds delightful (and probably harrowing from lack of sleep).

I resolved the friend issue I'd posted about in the other thread the other week. Mostly. I think. Just could't take the anxiety attacks any more.

Yes! As I mentioned in my other post, some issues are my own to deal with, but what could be resolved by talking has been resolved. Finding the right words to bring up what way thinking and/or feeling and why was actually a good exercise in being better at understanding myself. In the end, the risk of losing my best friend was a bigger stress inducer for me than everything else.

Bruh my mouth is watering. Got some croissants, four pepper turkey, hard salmi, pepper jack cheese and I'm gonna put it all together with a hot runny egg with a mug of coconut creme coffee to wash it down.

Edit out your blasphemous perversion of coffee and that is mouth watering.

He is a culinary monster. The one true coffee is as black and bitter as my soul.

Amen brother! It's not real coffee unless it gives you a good hard kick in the balls to get you going.

Overly bitter coffee usually means you burnt it. I can get that shit at 7-Eleven, so if you like that then you're doing coffee wrong. But to each their own they say.

I really wish I liked coffee - I adore the smell of it fresh brewed - but I always find it tastes unpleasantly bitter to me, even really milky ones.

Tea, however, well I will definitely fight you if you make that wrong!

I have a box of Yorkshire Tea hidden in my desk at work, because I refuse to put it in the lunch room and let others at it. They can have Tetley Orange Pekoe, while I have the good stuff.

Kombucha. It's like drinking tea farts.

It's one of those 'health' trends that caught fire a few years ago. Not sure if it caught on outside the U.S., although I think it has ran its course here and people are on to the next (gluten free? keto? CBD - everything?).

It was supposed to be good for 'gut health' and have probiotics and other some such healthy shit.
