a relationship with an expiration date?

so i'm seeing The Boy still, and it's getting to be more serious. i guess it could be considered a real relationship now. which is exciting. i'm really starting to dig him. but i'm talking to my friend last night and he said, probably joking, that i should just end the relationship now because he'll never marry me. and i was shocked, and kind of hurt, but said, well you know it's been like a month, i really don't think we're there yet. but i know it's true, and i think that's why i was hurt. i mean it wasn't something that hadn't crossed my mind, not the marriage thing, but do i want to get into a relationship that i know doesn't have long term potential? i mean, don't get me wrong. it's not like i have to know the end game or anything. but do i want to invest the time if i am just going to get my heart broken?
i mean The Boy, by talking about the past and his other relationships, has given me an insight into what our relationship will be like. not bad, just that i will never meet his family, his parents. i joked about it last night, saying, of course your parents will love me! everybody's parents love me! and he just smiles. and so a little more seriously i ask what it is that they wouldn't like... which basically turns out to be because i'm a blond haired, blue-eyed, catholic. no big deal. great. no big deal.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - McDonald's Corp. may soon offer its breakfast menu all day long as a new restaurant layout will make it easier to prepare a wide variety of foods at once, its chief executive said on Wednesday.
Speaking at the Bank of America 36th Annual Investment Conference in San Francisco, McDonald's CEO Jim Skinner said the company was implementing a new restaurant operating system that would finally make selling breakfast all day possib"It's not compatible with our current operating system," Skinner said about offering its breakfast menu all day. "But with this system, that could be possible."
The so-called flexible operating platform will make McDonald's food preparation processes more transparent to customers and "offer more variety with greater ease," Skinner said.
Breakfast sales have been a key part of McDonald's three-year turnaround thanks in part to products like McGriddles sandwiches and a new, stronger coffee blend. But the restaurants stop serving breakfast late in the morning to switch over to burgers and other items for lunch and dinner.
The breakfast period has been the "strongest performer" among McDonald's three major meal segments in the last two to three years and remains "extremely strong," Chief Financial Officer Matthew Paull said during the presentation.le.

are you allowed to say that to your customers?

so the other day i was running errands and i stopped by this little fabric store on the upper east side. it was run by this 80 year old eastern european woman. so i walk in and ask her if she has hook and eye closures, she says "yes, over on wall." imagine her accent like the one magda has from sex and the city. so i pick out the ones i want, and she says, "oh, these not for skirt, not for skirt then?" i say no they are for pants. "ok, ok, 2 dollars" then she says something that totally shocks me as i'm rustling through my purse for the 2 dollars. "i do not like your shirt" i am wearing a black empire waisted tank with thick straps, i don't see any problems with the shirt. but i am in shock that this 80 year old woman has just told me she doesn't like my shirt, but it gets worse. "this, " she says while motioning to my chest, "this is too much. this is not for daytime." i go from shock to shock and disbelief. this 80 year old eastern european woman not only doesn't like my shirt, she thinks i'm a floozy. fabulous. i don't know what to say. so i stammer that i'm sorry, hand her the two dollars and leave.

it's about fucking time

so a runway show in madrid told the bone thin girls of milan and new york to get gone. see story here. they instated a baseline BMI (body mass index) for all grils in the show. ha! yes!! so anyone below 18 would not be allowed to participate. although, to be fair, the weight a girl could qualify with at 5' 11" is 130 pounds. hardly a heifer.

not the best way to win her back

so this is a little more drama by proxy, and a little advice. so your girlfriend breaks up with you. that's sad. but it's over. but you want to get her back. do you think that sending drunk text messages in the middle of the night that say you are going to kill yourself is going to make her want to get back together with you? i'm thinking no. that's just me though.

just because you need a password....

doesn't mean it's private
so this story is hilarious. at least i think so. so my mom calls me and asks me to log into facebook and look at my little sister's (age 16) profile. so i say hold on while i turn on my computer (lie- i quick login and check it out- nothing out of the ordinary) so i say ok, all up what am i looking for? she tells me that someone told her that there are pictures of my sister and her friends drinking and kids in their underwear. i told her i didn't see anything like that, because i didn't, at first. in her albums there's nothing like that. but when you click on "more pictures of carolyn" it shows pictures of my sister throwing a party in my mom's basement (while she's out of town mind you) kids wasted, and my sister in her underwear and some boy in his boxers. so i hang up with my mom, speed dial my sister- first words out of my mouth "YOU ARE SOOOOO BUSTED" i tell her what's up and she starts to hyperventilate because my dad is on his way home to "talk to her about something imporant" hahahahahahaha

scarves and turtlenecks

sooo thursday night i went for drinks with starbucks boy. this is our third date, and i am having an anxiety attack the size of fucking houston right now. so i have what could be described as a large bruise on the front of my neck and my dad is coming into town in t-minus 2 hours. GREAT! and i start my new job on tuesday. FABULOUS! just kill me now.
