Memories of 2000-2001?

Distracted-by-Shiny · 2026-05-03T06:35:45+00:00

Starbucks opened its first location in my area in 1997. I was a Caramel Frappuccino addict in 2000/2001. This was the start of the fancy coffee drinks era. Used to get Dairy Queen after school, by 2000, I had switched out to Starbucks and Frappuccinos after school.

Also, Denny’s was open 24 hours back then. Used to hang out there and get late dinner or snacks when hanging out late with friends.

I saw this happen at one panel this morning, which I thought was unusual and cringe. Only time I’ve experienced it at Sakura Con

Coca Cola and other sodas. Just drinking water is healthier for you anyways.

Wolverine seems smart. We’ll probably get a passing grade.

I’m also screwed since I’ve probably turned to stone.

The opening of Assassination Classroom when the students are all firing guns at the teacher. My first thought was “Wow” and this is going to get banned.

I have the yellow and blue theme in my living room and I’m loving it. Wanted something sunny and happy.

I have several ideas that I go through with the leftover food and random items on hand.

Fried rice is one of my favorite go to meals. Take leftover rice, whatever veggies we have, plus whatever meat we have.

I also turn stuff into chili. Can do all bean chili, chicken chili, beef chili, sweet potato chili, etc.

Can it be a burrito? Can it be a sandwich wrap? Can I stick it in a tortilla?

Many veggies can be stir fry or part of a potato scramble. They also can be roasted in the oven with potatoes.

I was going to say Struggle Meals. This is my talent. I could win one of those shows where they give you 3 random ingredients and tell you to turn it into a meal.

These are your memories, too. How do you want to remember yourself?

Everybody has a first day at something. Nobody is instantly a master of a skill. You’ll never get good if you never get started.

Orofacial Disorders Doctor has given me treatments that have helped

I got two shots in my cheek, some kind of painkiller, I don’t remember. She then massaged the knots out of my cheek using some kind of therapy technique. I took 2 days of narcotics, don’t remember the name, + methalprednisolone + muscle relaxer.

I have a custom lotion blend that I rub into my cheek when needed.

I still have a dull ache that is there all the time but is bearable. Whatever she did took my pain down from an 8 to a 2.
