ill second Chinese food. sometimes it just kicks ass for some reason. ...never tried Thai.

as far as fyr's ex, what has she done (other than get tangled up with fye in the first place) that makes her crazy? we keep referring to her as crazy but is that just us or is it legit? i need some kind of evidence.

and in other news. this years frivolous birthday gift to myself. if you can't name at least 3 of these we can't be friends (no cheating, seriously, you actually need to know)

Sir 51D3WAYS I have been to a town of 5000 people it still had food delivery and you'll have more than one pizza place as an option. Also, their wait time is not remotely close to the wait time in the city so I don't mind before leaving work placing my order ahead of time, and by the time I pass by on my drive home, it is ready to be picked up. Another benefit is my drive home wont take 1 to 2 hours. There are more reasons than just food for why I prefer to be away from the city most of it has to do with being away from people.

@SC, roger that. I too would like to move to a smaller town....

@SDW, The crazy is this: She has 4 degrees. One of them is in Spanish. (yes she spent a year in Mexico to learn it) The rest is your conventional bachelors/masters/PhD. She is such a bookworm that her uni paid her to do all that. She only entered the workforce in her 30s. She has weird anxiety issues. Can't function in most workplaces, hence the late workforce entry. Can't sleep alone, hence the fight for the child, etc....

Is also weirdly uninterested in having kids. Or sex.

yea maybe it's me but I don't consider a degree in a langue an actual degree. Also the idea that someone can be in their 30s before doing actual work is so crazy to me and then not be able to handle it yikes.

In most small towns, I have not seen any food joints open later than 9:00pm. Most were closed by 8:00. Bars can be found open pretty late and most of them will serve quick fix foods. Mostly frozen foods.

Italian food is my favorite, but it has to be perfect. My wife wins in this catagory.

However, for a quick food, I'll take a carne asada burrito any time.

Sir 5,
I'm guessing your part of the world doesn't have many Mexican restaurants, or do they?

@SC yikes indeed.

@ORJ, yes, that's what I've heard, everywhere shut by 8. I often work later than that. Most places here close 9.30 to 10pm.

Mexican food is a rarity yes, certainly outside the US.
There's this chain called Guzman y Gomez, but I dare not try it.
There's also a local chain called Stuff'd. I swore off it after it caused a catastrophic assplosion. Literally. Like I'm talking ass periods while I was saying Hail Mary's and Our Father's.
I decided to stick to kebabs and Thai food after that.

4 degrees isn't weird it's just abnormal. language is right up there with lesbian dance theory as far as degrees go.
being a bookworm isn't weird ether, just semi abnormal.
entering the workforce in your 30's is abnormal. or at least was in my day. damn kids today idk anymore.
anxiety issues is abnormal. or at least would be if so many people didn't have it as well (the hell is wrong with people today?. need to change out those flip flops for boots so you'll have straps to pick your self up by)
can't function in most workplaces. hell neither can anyone under 30 . that is of course assuming they actually show up. let alone show up on time.
can't sleep alone. ok that's weird AF.
no interest in sex. can't blame her for that, i wouldn't want to have sex with fyr ether

no but seriously, she sounds more on the spectrum than he does
