I bought $100 worth of crypto cash. In two months, it was up to $125, so I sold it, took the original hundred and bought bitcoin, which promptly decreased to $89. Sold again while I was ahead. I now know less than I did when I started.

 

It's still sort of a black hole of investment.

So my son just called me--his old mentor has a friend who's a James Beard award winning chef. He told this chef about my lad. Award winning chef wants to talk to him! The lad is on cloud nine! Said chef is in Seattle so I have no idea what they'd talk ABOUT, but it is exciting. 

I’m so proud of your boy! Good luck!

That's great - would he move to Seattle?  That's not so great.

Mary needs therapy, intensive therapy or she will SNAP.

That girl is a MESS. How I yearn to see Brandan respond "You know, you're right. This is not going to work. I wish you all the best" and leave when she whimpers, through copious tears "then find someone else!". Never happen but a girl can dream, right?

I don't know! He's a Salem boy, born and raised, and there's a great restaurant scene here. I'm sure he'd be up for it, for the adventure and the experience. He's a personable lad, he makes friends easily so he'd probably do fine. I would, of course, be wicked sad and miss him but he's a grown up. Positive side, he'd be rid of crap roommate.

Mary is a piece of work.

That's putting it mildly. 

Oh, @Auntie Anxiety called it. Panic attack. It reminds me of that episode of Fawlty Towers when Basil screams and throws himself to the floor, claiming an old injury to avoid the consequences of his actions. I see you, Mary.

He needs to go where his life takes him. He’ll get enough experience to open his own restaurant in Salem one day.

Hope something shakes out of this - sounds promising.  Hope he stays in Salem too!

I think he'd like the PNW. But I will not over anticipate. I mean, he hasn't even talked to the guy yet! 

Thanks for all your kind words, friends. See you all next time, have a great week, don't look at girls or I'll have a panic attack or a case of the vapors.
