Listener Email and Angel Numbers Discussion

00:00:22
Speaker
think it didn't quite catch your hello. It might not have. I might have jumped to the gun a little bit. Yeah. So what's going on? a Countdown timer is like only so useful. I know. Like i if I'm not looking at it, ain't going to be useful. Right. Right.
00:00:43
Speaker
Oh, yeah. So we got an email. We got an email. Fuck yes.
00:00:55
Speaker
She's the sweetest. Yes. I don't know her yet, but like I think I could really be friends with her. She's very sweet.
00:01:07
Speaker
We have a listener named Zoe and she likes to or email us. Anyway, she just gave us express permission to be able to talk about her and or her emails. So we're talking about her.
00:01:22
Speaker
Yeah. Specifically, she told us a cool um I mean, I was going to say it's a story, but it seems more like it's a bit of a phenomenon for her. yeah And so ah she said that It'd be okay to share. And we wanted to share yeah because it pertains to a recent, semi-recent episode of ours. Yeah. we We did our angel number episode was number 77. Yeah. Titled 777. fittingly.
00:01:47
Speaker
yeah title seven seven seven so fittingly We love them sevens. Yeah. So she and her family play a game that she recommends, but I can't remember what it's called right now. Sorry. um I can look it up.
00:02:03
Speaker
If anyone wants to know, i can always add that at the end too. true um So it's like you draw cards and stuff. And this happens to her all the time when she's playing with the friends and the family, but when she's playing just like either by herself or with her significant other, it never happens.
00:02:25
Speaker
So it's kind of weird. But like when you, yeah she has to draw like so many cards or whatever, and she always draws three nines somehow. Every single time. um Because you have to play with multiple decks, apparently. Because, like, you know, there's only so many nines in a deck. but Yeah, and that's still, like, a crazy chance. Yeah.
00:02:47
Speaker
Yeah. with multiple Super crazy weird. Yeah. So she's she was telling us how that always happens to her, but only when she's playing with the family. And then she makes comments about it and they all just kind of blow her off because none of them are witchy at all. We're not into that kind of, you know, yeah metaphysical anything.
00:03:10
Speaker
um But anyway, i thought that was very cool. And she said she used this term that I think is so funny. She's like, it's super freaky deaky or whatever. And I was like, oh my God, that's so funny. Yeah. I only ever heard that term freaky deaky used in reference to something sexual.
00:03:27
Speaker
Right, right, right. like yeah we got We got freaky deaky, you know, that kind of thing. It's such a 90s term. ah So I had to tell her, I wrote her back and I was like, I was laughing out loud about your freaky deaky comment because it meant something completely different back when I was younger.
00:03:48
Speaker
i love it. But Speaking freaky deaky. Oh yeah. Oh, oh. Segway. The perfect segway. Yeah.

School Bus Drivers Scandal

00:04:03
Speaker
So I'm guessing through all of these episodes, people may or may not have figured out that I drive a school bus for a living. Yeah. You have for sure talked about it.
00:04:15
Speaker
And said so, like, outright. I just have no idea when. Yeah, yeah. um So, something really crazy happened this week.
00:04:26
Speaker
and By Monday evening, afternoon slash evening, there was a post on social media arm on like, hmm...
00:04:39
Speaker
The county I live in has a scanner page that is basically like, you know, I don't know if people are familiar with the terms like police scanner, but like you can tune into like radio frequencies and listen to police scanner type situations going on. Yeah.
00:04:56
Speaker
It like amazes me that that's like a possibility because it feels like it's something that should be illegal. yeah but yeah I've known what a police scanner is yeah because I've watched The Incredibles and I think they use a police scanner or they tune in police scanner in Stranger Things. okay I have no idea. So it continue so anyway, this ah specific county scanner
00:05:27
Speaker
Facebook page, somebody posted a video that they recorded sitting in their vehicle across the parking lot of a Walmart at one of our buses. And it was aimed right in the front like bus you know driver a windshield window.
00:05:46
Speaker
And you could clearly see a very odd motion happening in the bus that was very repetitive and very fast.
00:05:59
Speaker
And so you kind of figure out what's happening in that bus. Oh my God. Okay. Like spoiler alert, no children were on board. Okay. So that's not, you know, and not spoiler alert, but rest assured. Contented and and not concerned. Yes. Apparently two drivers had a little meetup for a ah afternoon delight and afternoon freaky deaky an afternoon freaky deaky so this quote this i can't believe this person posted it it on the the scanner page but hey whatever and they were like the superintendent has been notified
00:06:45
Speaker
like oh my god and so oh i'm I've been gossiping with coworkers and we've been speculating about who has been involved. I mean, like it was obvious who the driver of the bus was because you could see most of the bus number in the video and we could surmise which bus it was specifically because only one bus matches those two digits um in in that order. And, um,
00:07:15
Speaker
So then it was easy to figure out who the driver of that bus was because they always know like who's driving what bus on any given day at any given time. And um my my whole thing was, did they record who was getting off the bus at the end to know who the second party was that showed up and and met up with this yeah driver? If they stuck around long enough.
00:07:41
Speaker
Yeah, but but from what I just heard, because this is a gossip episode. I mean, this is a gossip episode, right? For sure. Okay. i I don't usually do all this gossipy shit, but this is too much to not gossip about.
00:07:57
Speaker
This is huge. Oh, boy. one of our supervisors was called out to the scene. oh boy. And I i can't imagine. i mean...
00:08:09
Speaker
It had to take that supervisor a good 20 minutes, 15 to 20 minutes to get there. so like how long were those people doing that on that bus in broad daylight?
00:08:20
Speaker
Or how long did they just linger after they were done? Yeah, I don't know. But like, that's crazy. Yeah. I mean, that's crazy. i mean, like I'm all for like, you know, getting you thrills.
00:08:34
Speaker
like you know and and there's nothing wrong with having fantasies but like there's way better times and places to do that kind of thing yeah certainly not not in the middle of the day not in your vehicle of workplace Yeah.
00:08:51
Speaker
And like in the middle of the day in a public parking lot of a busy store. don't care how horny you are You fucking rent a motel room. You need to be so desperate.
00:09:07
Speaker
Yeah. And in that case, there are way. the Listen, OK, I'm not saying it's okay to go ahead and like fuck on a bus. But like, especially a school bus, but like of all the vehicles to to potentially fuck on, a the school bus might be the easiest one to like be able to like hide because of how tall the seat backs are.
00:09:39
Speaker
yeah Yeah. Just go cowgirl in one of those seats. How about hard? Oh my God, dude. Or at least lay down on the ground. Yeah. i I would think in the aisle would be the best because listen, the, the positioning, let's talk about the positioning. Okay. All we could see was a tall person in the aisle going side to side, which is the easiest way to make a bus rock.
00:10:12
Speaker
Yeah. And I will tell you, if you're in the aisle going front to back, you're not going to make that bus rock. Right. Right. Oh, my God.
00:10:22
Speaker
so all we can guess is that said female was more than likely on her knees. my God. Bent over. And he was, yeah.
00:10:34
Speaker
Doggy. Doggy. Doggy. Dogget it. Doggy. Dogget it. Doggy. Dogget it. that's what it looked like yeah so dumb ass is on multiple counts yeah let's just say yeah oh my god and so i'm still trying to figure out if this is an instant firing or if there's going to be a disciplinary process or any kind of like process at all I haven't found that part out. Yeah, because that's not something that you encounter all the time. Right. You know, it's like there's certain things where you're just like, okay, that's an easy like they're definitely getting fired like certain infractions. Yeah.

Husband's Series of Unfortunate Events

00:11:15
Speaker
They're not that this is a gray area necessarily, but it's just not not something you hear a lot you hear about. Yeah, lot it might even be unp precedent probably unprecedented I don't know.
00:11:29
Speaker
But yeah. Weird. But, you know, i mean, i don't know. It's, I just, I, I e question their intelligence.
00:11:47
Speaker
And I, I, listen, I understand horny. I do too. I understand like hot, heavy, like borderline desperation. I get it i get it spend the money drop like wait what is it wait 75 dollars wait to get a fucking motel room i'm serious the um suspected female okay is dating a guy at the school that we drive for okay a teacher she's dating this dude so like
00:12:28
Speaker
I don't know if outside of work hours is a possibility for her because maybe she's with that guy all the time and like can't sneak off. That doesn't matter. i understand.
00:12:39
Speaker
yeah There are as other ways to get around, you know, having to resort to doing it. this cool she was She was also cheating. Yeah.
00:12:50
Speaker
Jesus fuck. Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah. And I, I, I kind of hesitate to, share the nickname somebody recently called her anyway no um but no but i'm serious like it doesn't matter like fucking what i know get a motel it's insane god it's insane there's certainly no more gross than a bus would be
00:13:27
Speaker
Oh my God. Yeah. I just don't understand. i don't understand how you think you can get away with doing that. And here's the thing.
00:13:38
Speaker
Like i was just telling my my husband this like last night, I remember hearing this being told to us multiple times in the past that we literally work in a fishbowl.
00:13:53
Speaker
Yeah. Everybody in the public wants to look inside of a school bus and catch us doing something wrong. Right. They want to, you know, catch somebody, you know, hitting a student or whatever. Right. And we have like, you know, this specialized training for it's like non nonviolent crisis intervention training where we can like physically like defend ourselves without hurting, you know, another like another person, a student or whatever. Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:21
Speaker
And they tell us even in this training that like putting up your arm to block a punch from the outside can look like you're the one throwing the punch.
00:14:31
Speaker
Yeah. So you've got to be careful what you're doing, how you're doing it and everything. Like people outside are looking in and they are going to judge the shit out of you. So like to be this dumb,
00:14:44
Speaker
i just It just boggles my fucking mind. I'm just like blown away. Anyway. i like It almost makes me feel like they should be fired. Yeah. Because of how stupid it is. Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:58
Speaker
It's like, it's, it's, Jesus Christ. It's insanity. Yeah. It's really, it's really bad. Anyway. oh So I'm all for, you know, getting your jollies on.
00:15:14
Speaker
But fucking if you're going to be skeevy, go all the way. Get a motel. I've done it. I'm sure you've done it.
00:15:27
Speaker
It's it's more times than I can count. Kind of same. Kind of same.
00:15:37
Speaker
Oh, my God. Ain't no shame in that game. Yeah. So. Yesterday was a fun day, too. I don't think I told you about what happened.
00:15:48
Speaker
I don't think I know, because I can't think of what it is. Not work-related.
00:15:57
Speaker
So, yesterday, my my husband had taken the day off work because he had planned on going bar hopping. Yesterday being St. Patrick's Day, I guess, for specificity. Yes, yes.
00:16:10
Speaker
Yes. So, we're recording this the day after. Anyhow, um it was really cold yesterday. Really, really cold.
00:16:20
Speaker
And so said husband went out to start the car. And I guess I should say he's currently using our spare car because his is in the shop. And our spare car doesn't have automatic anything.
00:16:34
Speaker
I mean, it's straight out of 2005. Straight of the junkyard. Practically. So it has crank windows that you have to like roll down by hand. It has the locks that you have to literally pull up and down with your fingers. wow um Yeah. So he went out and started the car and then he locked the keys inside. oh Jesus. With our so son. Yeah.
00:17:02
Speaker
with him outside in the freezing cold. And then he was also locked out of the house because the keys were locked in the car. Oh my God. Oh my God. So i have, I've had an issue with my front door lock in the past where it didn't want to like work for whatever reason, like my knob was loose. And so the key wouldn't turn all the way the right way and then lock or whatever. and I've been able to get my, my son to get through one of the windows that has been left unlocked more than it should. And ah he will come around and open up the front door. So I don't understand what was going on, but he didn't want to do it for my husband yesterday. He was being scaredy cat about it or whatever.
00:17:51
Speaker
yeah, john had to remove the panels out of the window like my god the the you know the i don't know there's there hasn't been a screen but like apparently you can like pull the windows out of the like frame oh okay yeah and so he had to do that to climb through and then he put one of them back upside down so the other one got jammed into place and it won't open. or I won't like it's, there's a gap in two places now and that window will not budge. So we're like letting freezing cold air stream into the house now. Oh my God. Oh my God. Yeah. But also in the process of him trying to figure out that the car door was actually locked. He broke the handle off the car.
00:18:47
Speaker
He pulled the fucking driver handle right off the door.
00:18:55
Speaker
Yeah. Oh my god. also I just realized there's ranch on my sweatshirt. Oops. Oh my god. can't even see it. It's too low. Oh, there it is. I see it now. So as I was figuring out that the window was jacked up. Were you, were you home? No. Oh my God. No. so was at work.
00:19:19
Speaker
Okay. So this was it. I thought this was like later in the evening. it i thought this this was like later in the evening No, this happened in the morning when they were getting ready to take him to school.
00:19:32
Speaker
Okay. I fully... You talked about bar hopping, and so I fully thought that he was... because it's St. Paddy's Day. Yeah, well, it's St. Paddy's Day. Bars open early, and like...
00:19:44
Speaker
People start drinking in the morning. That's what I thought. That's what Wait. What? Wait. So he was going bar hopping in the morning? What the fuck? He was planning to go downtown Detroit and have drinks in the middle of the day. i don't know. Whatever. He's never done that before. We've never done that before. It's the dumbest thing you can do, in my opinion, but whatever. um What do I know? i'm just a stupid woman.
00:20:08
Speaker
um Anyway...

St. Patrick's Day Change of Plans

00:20:13
Speaker
So later. Okay. So here's what happened, right? Okay. We can't look at our phones on the bus because we have cameras in there. Okay. Right. Which I will say they do turn off after a while. When you turn the bus off, you've got to wait 10 minutes and then the cameras stop recording. So like that might be, i don't know what happened with those people on Monday, but I'm telling you they would be real dumb to make sure the cameras, camera cameras were, you know,
00:20:40
Speaker
We're not recording at that moment. Yeah. But whatever. Jesus Christ. So like none of the lights were on on the outside of that bus in that video. So I'm guessing that they had turned it all the way off. Like, yeah, period. Anyway, so like I can't just pick up my phone and glance at it. you know, when I'm even like parked with people on the bus, like yeah if there's people on the bus, that's it. I can't, you know, I have to be completely alone or whatever.
00:21:10
Speaker
So I wasn't looking at my phone. I don't have my ringers on or anything or else that would stress me out because I i do get messages from people throughout the day, you know, yeah and phone calls. So i had a two seconds I could look at my phone and i I see like John messaged me telling me what happened that he's been locked out of the car and it's running in the driveway and that he tried to call me three times and he doesn't know what to do and isn't there a spare key and blah blah blah I'm like oh my god I have the spare key with me the fucking spare key is with me in my purse I'm like oh Jesus what am I gonna do
00:21:48
Speaker
That was not easy. But I so I was messaging anybody that I could think of that might be around and available to help me because I was going to ask them to come meet me to get the spare key and then drive it all the way down to my house. Yeah. was like ah feel Like there's this new employee. Well, she's new, not totally new to me. New is like, you know.
00:22:11
Speaker
any time in the last two years, new ish, new ish, uh, person who works with us, who drives for Lyft during her break. She's not a driver, and not a bus driver though. She, she's an aid on the buses. So, but she drives for Lyft on her breaks and, um, I couldn't get ahold of anybody else. And then I thought of her and I'm like, Oh, maybe she's out doing runs. So I messaged her privately, you know, like I, I actually, I recently became friends with her on Facebook so I could, you know,
00:22:40
Speaker
messenger. about this. And so i was like, Hey, are you doing runs right now? And she's like, yeah, what's going on? And I'm like, I need help. I was like, this is what I need. Are you willing, you know, willing to help? And she's like, as long as I can get back to work by one. And I was like, absolutely.
00:22:58
Speaker
i was like, would $20 do it? And she was like, sure. um my God. so I had to like Venmo her 20 bucks, but she met me at the school at the the time that I said I was going to get there by and um gave her the spare keys and she ran them down here to them and then wow so my son didn't get to school till after 12 30 wow wow and then the husband decided not to go bar hopping after that
00:23:30
Speaker
Yeah. Like I'm ready to take a nap now. Yeah. It was like he went to the grocery store and bought us some yummy ass corned beef and veggies and cooked a big pot of that stuff for us yesterday. And it turned out so good.
00:23:45
Speaker
Nice. Oh my God. It was so good. Nice. um So, yeah, that was my day yesterday. oh. oh And the other thing that happened.
00:23:55
Speaker
So, you know, I love um Fiesta wear plates, bowls, all the colorful, you know. And when we first got together...
00:24:06
Speaker
He broke a couple of my pieces and I was really pissed about it. And I had to, you know, order like replacements because they're like sets. I have sets of things and I like them to remain sets. And they're also like some of the colors become retired.
00:24:23
Speaker
Yeah. like despite that mood Yeah. Yeah. Oh, anyway, I had to like pay a little extra to get them off eBay from people to replace the pieces. After that, I said, screw this. And I bought like that corning wear stuff.
00:24:37
Speaker
it's not corning wear. I don't know what the hell it's called. It's that cheap, thin plastic, they're not not plastic, but like, Corel? Corel. Yeah. I think it's Corel.
00:24:48
Speaker
um The thin, white, you know, lightweight dinnerware. I'm familiar. Yeah. Yeah. So I bought like four plates, four bowls, four like small, like the little tiny plates. um And that's it. like Salad plates, they call them. Yeah, but it's smaller than that. It's like weird. and Are you sure they're not like teacup saucers?
00:25:10
Speaker
I'm positive. Coffee cup saucers? Yeah, they don't have salad plates. Okay. So they're just little, whatever they are. Yeah. um And then people in my house are fucking pigs. So...
00:25:25
Speaker
Whoa. Okay. Jesus Christ. I'm sorry. I'm a little salty today. um fucking Plates get left in that living room. Yeah. A lot.
00:25:39
Speaker
yeah And I went because i was standing by the doorway of the room where the window had to be taken out. And I could hear a lot of extra road noise coming through that window. And I was like, why is that window open? And I went over to investigate and I was trying to fix the window situation before I realized that one part of it had been put back in upside down. And that the other other one was jammed so tight I couldn't move it. I took a step in that general area and heard crunch and And like something broke under my foot.
00:26:11
Speaker
And I was like, what the hell? fucking plate was under some shit on the floor. i stepped on it and broke it. i was just like, my god what else is going to happen today?
00:26:23
Speaker
Oh my God. it's Not literal shit, to be clear. No. Yeah. Just stuff. I was like, for real, like...
00:26:35
Speaker
the car door handle the window and now i'll fucking play god it's like retrograde is trying to get in all its bullshit in the last couple days before it ends is i didn't even know retrograde we are in retrograde hardcore i did not even know that yeah yeah okay great we're in retrograde and it ends on the 20th
00:27:02
Speaker
it's just like it was like it left you alone for most of it and then now in the last couple days it's just like punch punch punch yeah just hitting you like a boxer hits a like speed bag oh
00:27:20
Speaker
my god well i don't have any goss for you Why

Busy Week Ahead

00:27:26
Speaker
not? Because I'm boring. Because I don't do anything.
00:27:31
Speaker
ah
00:27:39
Speaker
But that was fun. I mean, not fun for you, but fun for me to listen to. Yeah. I'm trying to think if there's anything else I could tell you. Yeah, I'm trying to think now, too.
00:27:50
Speaker
Piggybacking off of our Downton episode, though. Oh, yeah. Outlander started up again. oh yeah. And I just watched the first episode and it's so good.
00:28:02
Speaker
Oh boy. good. So good. i'm So good. I still need to finish season seven it was. Yeah. Yeah I need to finish. I have the last episode of season seven to watch which honestly i feel like I've got to like rewatch the whole episode or the whole season because I'm like I know some of what happens but i don't remember everything yeah i mean so same here i i mean honestly here's what i'm here's what i actually truly am gonna do i'm gonna wait for the entirety of season eight to be released okay because i hate waiting each like week to watch a new episode yeah
00:28:48
Speaker
I don't like it's that's I think part of the reason I got so fucked up over season seven. Like i was just like i was I was remembering and then forgetting and then leaving it a couple weeks and then watching multiple episodes and it was just like it just drove me crazy. So I just want to be able to watch the whole season in one fell swoop.
00:29:09
Speaker
Okay. So I'm going to wait until it's I'm to wait until it's all out. So you will at least be able to rewatch season seven if you wanted. If I wanted to. um But like I said, I have a lot.
00:29:21
Speaker
Like you said, you gotta watch. And I'm like, there's a lot that I gotta do. Yeah, I know. I know. Yeah. um There is a lot in this upcoming week that I have to do.
00:29:35
Speaker
Well, yeah. Like starting Sunday. I'm just like basically like hunker down. who Anything you want to share?
00:29:46
Speaker
no okay i mean a few things that are positive good exciting and a few that are not um one of the positive things is going to see john mulaney live oh sweet that'll be uh two fridays from now i'm very excited oh yeah that's the the our next uh date online date that we're doing what the next day instead Yeah, our bill paying date. Yeah. um Which that's a whole thing that we've started, which let's not talk about it yet because let's wait and see how it sticks. That's totally fine. But yeah, my like Christmas and birthday gift to Jim, like the big Christmas birthday gift to Jim was tickets to see John Mulaney on his current tour.
00:30:40
Speaker
ah Yeah, so that'll be fun. Looking forward to that. I also have two separate baby showers to attend. One of which is not in this state.
00:30:53
Speaker
e So i I am very much looking forward to it because I haven't seen that friend since her first baby shower oh my god i don't know who that is i i haven't seen her since then so that was 2021 so it's been like four and a half almost five years it's been that Um, so that's the reason that I was like, you know, and it's not that far. It's like, you know, it's out so out of state, but it's not that far. So it's reasonable to get to, but I do have to do it. And so I've got that. And then another one within like the same week, technically within the same span of seven days.
00:31:41
Speaker
Um, so I'm just, and then work. Work is never ending. Work is exhausting. And I'm fucking tired. um I hear you.
00:31:53
Speaker
And so I'm just like, yeah yeah, that's how I feel about the day. That's how I feel about the week coming up. got um But yeah, so we'll see if there's even a fucking episode to listen to um on the last Monday of the month. Oh boy. I want there to be We'll try.
00:32:15
Speaker
But I also cannot make promises. Because what the fuck. Yeah. So, yeah, we'll see. you um But yeah.
00:32:30
Speaker
Sorry. Yeah, eating your fucking shit pellets over there. Disgusting. I haven't had dinner, so they're my little snacky snack.
00:32:42
Speaker
who Yeah, I've only had like half of a dinner because I had two little tiny burritos of microwavable status and they're delicious but they're small I have the rest of some Taco Bell nachos to finish from lunch not a whole lot of those left either but nice very nice ya yeah yeah since I've had Taco Bell o
00:33:14
Speaker
i wish there was more a more convenient one but there's one that i could swing by after work if i wanted to go slightly out of my way like a different route home but i don't usually want to and i usually have to go to like an appointment directly after work so if i'm going from the office i mean ah So if you ever do find yourself in a Taco Bell drive through or in one, I won't have the nachos because I don't like nachos like that.

Flavor Discoveries and Nostalgia

00:33:48
Speaker
That's not what I only like. Good. I was going to say, I only like nachos from like Mexican village or any other Mexican restaurant that is like it. Okay. And in in that case also like only when they're like hot and right out the kitchen and not like as leftovers. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Soggy sadness. Yes. I will say, though, the Del Taco macho nachos or whatever they call them now are very, very good.
00:34:18
Speaker
i would recommend them if you, you know, if inns you ever have a Del Taco around you. Which I don't. Next time you come out here, maybe. but we have other Mexican places to hit up now. Yeah, we have better Mexican places to go to. But anyway, you know what I was going to say is if you do go to a Taco Bell, they have a new um Mountain Dew Baja Blast. Is midnight?
00:34:42
Speaker
It's the midnight one. i've Oh, I've been had that. Oh, God, it's so yummy. Oh, that's the only one I get. ah Not only is it yummy, it's fucking purple. I know! I Who doesn't love a purple drink? Come on! Purple drink!
00:35:00
Speaker
um Love it. Oh my God. It's so good. oh Delicious. One of our friends posted a picture of her holding a Baja blast, but it was the teal colored one. Yeah. The aqua color. Classic one.
00:35:14
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. And she was like giving me life or whatever. And I was like, no girl. Oh my God. Speaking of drinks that give me life.
00:35:26
Speaker
i I, think I've talked about this. I'm sure I have at some point. Peach Coke. Oh, yeah I think you might have. Peach fucking Coke. Okay, so, like, where I learned about it, or first tried it, was out of those, like, drink dispensers that are, like, the touchscreen ones. Yes.
00:35:49
Speaker
Yeah, so you can get those, because those have, like, all these crazy flavors of Coke that are not generally available in a store. Right, in a can or anything.
00:35:59
Speaker
Yeah. Like in a store, in a can at any other restaurant. We hit up a Wendy's or something on our drive back. You and me and so and my kid u huh on our drive back from Branson, we hit up a Wendy's and you got that there.
00:36:14
Speaker
Yeah. And you were like, try this. Oh my God. Literally. Because that's um at the movie theater that Jim and I have gone to. Yeah.
00:36:27
Speaker
they have those drink dispensers there. And so that's, whenever we go to a movie, we get a large popcorn and a large Coke, a peach Coke to share.
00:36:39
Speaker
And so like, that's what we always do. And it's delicious. However, since he's been working at Walmart, he occasionally comes home with bags of his own groceries, which includes a peach punch by Minute Maid. Hmm.
00:36:56
Speaker
And it's literally just like peach flavored juice. Like it's not, it's punch always insinuates that there's like a bunch of like different types of fruit flavors, but this is just straight peat peach. Okay. and we tried, we added peach punch to a can of Coke and it tastes just the same.
00:37:17
Speaker
Wow. And so I, my last grocery order that I did from Walmart, I got 24 Coke. of coke and two cartons of minute maid peach punch which by the way is like a vocal stim for jim so anytime he has it and he wants to drink it and he like pulls it out of the fridge and drinks it straight out of the carton he's just like peach punch oh my god Okay. Because he is five-year-old boy in a 39-year-old man's body.
00:37:54
Speaker
ah Yeah. So I got two cartons of that and the 24-pack of Coke. And it's not been every time that I... like I do like a classic Coke. this is just This is classic. This has no peach in it. Got it.
00:38:04
Speaker
But I have it. Nice. But I was like, this is going to be our like summertime drink. It is peach Coke. cool beans yeah so 10 out of 10 would recommend we have right now a mango um it's like juice but it's like a nectar it's like freaking like thick you know is it naked no or or one of those similar brands no
00:38:39
Speaker
It's a giant, i used to love it's a big, giant plastic carton. Yeah. with The big handle that you buy, you can buy at Costco. And it's just some weird brand. I don't know what it, what brand it is. It's just Is Old House Farms? No.
00:38:53
Speaker
No, it's nothing like anything like that. It's completely the wall brand. I don't know. know ok Just like some local, like yeah from overseas place, like not local, but local to them kind of whatever. Overseas place. There are a few things that transport me in time so dramatically as that thick ass mango nectar drinks.
00:39:21
Speaker
Like for me specifically, the bottles of like naked mango, mighty mango or whatever the fuck house farms and whatever. They're so damn good. i love those things. That flavor transports me to 16 years old.
00:39:37
Speaker
Oh. Because for some reason, that's when my family just started to like buy those giant bottles of it. And I started to drink it.
00:39:49
Speaker
And I didn't really like I never really had mango before that. And so it was like my introduction to mango. And now I really like it. I i i enjoy like not raw.
00:40:00
Speaker
Raw mango is not the right word. But like, you know, plain mango. is fine but i like the like dried oh yeah gonna snack on like the actual fruit i like dried mango so much but mango juice mango nectar it like i for some reason drink enough of it during my like junior year of high school that i automatically am transported back to that time when i taste it now Yeah.
00:40:32
Speaker
Oh, my gosh. I really should read the ingredients on that jug because it's probably got high fructose corn syrup in it or whatever, because it's that that kind of consistency that's like syrupy almost like. thick Yeah.
00:40:44
Speaker
But like. But also it is mango and mango is pretty thick. I know. Yeah. if you just blended straight mango and maybe some ice. Yeah. like yeah so like I have been watering that down when I'm serving it to my child because he doesn't need like that much damn sugar yeah it's very sweet

Retreat Memories and Weather Chat

00:41:03
Speaker
but it is so yummy who and I know the the dried mangoes you're talking about they sell big bags of that at Costco as well yeah no matter what brand like they all taste the same but yeah um I had brought brought a bag of that to Anahata's with me
00:41:21
Speaker
And it disappeared. I don't know who the fuck took it, but like I didn't have any. it was like it was like it was sitting around one of those things that didn't get used the whole time. And then when they were divvying things up at the end, somebody snatched that bitch up and took it. I was like, man and also I have a gripe about my cauldron and that we filled that bitch up with Halloween candy. oh yeah. And then when we were going to use the cauldron to do our little spell.
00:41:52
Speaker
Yeah. All that candy got put somewhere. i don't know where the fuck it went, but I didn't get any to take home. ah And I had brought a big, a big bag of Halloween, you know, from Costco and didn't get any. Like, I think I grabbed a couple pieces one night to put in my pocket. Yeah. But I didn't get to take any back home me. like God damn it. oh Yeah. Oh, well, it was honestly, I loved our like community effort.
00:42:23
Speaker
to make sure everybody was fed in our cabin we did a great job we did a great job but it was also pure chaos and overkill and overkill massive overkill absolute massive overkill but it was great it was good hu so i loved it it was it was wonderful i remember when i was grilling hot dogs Yes!
00:42:49
Speaker
And you wanted a hot dog and I told you to deep throat it. Oh god, stop. I'll probably give you the finger and said fuck off. You did.
00:43:01
Speaker
I don't even remember doing it, but that was exactly the miserable reaction I just had when you said that. You actually said shut the fuck up, but you know, same dick.
00:43:13
Speaker
Ew! Ew, ew! Ew!
00:43:19
Speaker
No thanks.
00:43:26
Speaker
Oh That was so fun though. i was really The taco thing that we did at the outside table when we had out when we had taco things or burritos or whatever the hell. And I brought out my microgreens.
00:43:42
Speaker
yeah And then remember the one facilitator who walked past
00:43:55
Speaker
like that was a fun experience I loved being able to share with people yeah loved and i loved being able to say communist AP yes oh my god yes cap grill and chill yeah yeah oh my god that was amazing it was so good it was oh yeah that was great oh i feel like there was something i was gonna say and now i can't remember it oh shit sorry great little song i just did it was great it was awesome oh who knows who knows but i'm sniffly oh because it's sprang sp sprang
00:44:43
Speaker
okay well it's trying to be yeah it was cold today and yesterday really really cold it's the equinox on friday um thursday or friday i'm gonna look it up because the 20th is thursday and that's um isn't it no tomorrow's thursday and that's the 19th oh yeah you're right so 20th friday it's either friday saturday or sunday so well it's i think friday i think friday is the actual first day of spring
00:45:18
Speaker
According to the weatherman yesterday. Yeah. 10.26am. Yeah.
00:45:27
Speaker
And it's going to start getting warmer. Hopefully. For me it will. For me, it will. It was like 17 degrees here yesterday morning and today morning.
00:45:40
Speaker
Gross. Yeah. I hate that for you. It was really fucking cold, man. Yeah. I don't understand. Like, I mean, okay, maybe this is just the fact that I live in a coastal state because coastal states, no matter what kind of weather you get, it's always milder than what you get inland. And for some reason, your weather is always more extreme than mine, no matter what direction you're going from. Mm-hmm.
00:46:05
Speaker
So it's like every time that I talk about whatever weather we're having, you always hit me back with like, we have it worse. Or way better. mi And I'm just like, God damn it. Let me complain.
00:46:24
Speaker
Yeah, like that one day it was like 60 something for you. And I was like, it's 73 here. Yeah. then like, you know, it was like 25 when I went walked out the door this morning, but you had it worse because you had it 17. And we've still had the wind.

00:47:18
Speaker
Blech. Yeah, but at least it was warm. It did get up to like 61. When was that again? Monday. Okay. it did It was a bit warmer here on Monday, but it dropped back down again really bad yesterday.
