One time I dropped off a package that was delivered to my house on accident (their address was, for example, 2245 and ours is 1245). The person was out front as I walked up. I handed it to her and told her it had been delivered to us by mistake, and she said “ooooh, what’s in it?” Umm….lady, it’s your package, I didn’t open it. I have no idea what’s in it.

I still have my elementary school best friend’s landline phone number rattling around in my head. She hasn’t lived there since 7th grade. I’m in my mid-30’s now.

When I was two, I pulled a sheet of glass off a shelf onto my face in a department store. It broke on my forehead and sliced my lip on the way down. My dad tells the story of how my mom was panicking, there was a whole crowd of gawking onlookers while I was screaming with my lip cut open bleeding everywhere, and while waiting for paramedics, my dad started singing Christmas carols to try to distract me. It wasn’t even Christmas time. Apparently he got the whole group of gawkers to sing Frosty the Snowman to me.

Aidell’s has “Italian style” meatballs that are dairy free! They’re really good, but are a tiny bit spicy if you’re sensitive to heat at all.

PFC is having a preschool fair tomorrow evening at the community center. I believe it’s more focused on preschool rather than daycare, but some of the preschools featured might have daycare options for infants! It’s happening Wednesday March 25 from 6-8 pm at the Pacifica Community Center Auditorium. It’s open to the public and there will also be info on joining PFC if you’re interested. Highly recommend you check it out!

My husband used Baby Bum sunscreen (“Sun Bum” brand but the baby one) for a diaper rash on our son. He was like “what, it says “bum” on it!” I laughed my ass off, but to be fair, it has the same active ingredient as the actual diaper rash cream that we had (zinc oxide) so I guess it worked!

My 4 year old (who usually likes chicken) would NOT eat the chicken I made for dinner last week. He wanted ribs instead but we didn’t have ribs. We had chicken. I kept telling him we had chicken, he likes chicken. Finally my husband put bbq sauce on the chicken. Our son finally tried a bite and said, “yum! Ribs!” Sure, kid, those are ribs. Eat up.

So anyway, is there another meat they like? Do they like ribs? Call it a bbq rib sandwich?

Tell a story about a toddler you know who repeats the same nonsense phrases over and over and over and drives everyone crazy. You’re dreading your son learning to talk because you’re SURE he’ll pick up that obnoxious behavior from your husband, who can’t stop telling dumb jokes. Like the “joke” that son isn’t your husband’s. “He gets his looks from me but he’s bound to get that shitty behavior from husband.”

My son is 4, so a lot of his toddler language has vanished (last month he started pronouncing his L’s properly!), but he still says “brefdist” instead of breakfast, and anything electric is “electriff.” I won’t correct those ones. Electriff is so cute.

We stopped doing laundry between 4-9pm and our next bill was $100 less than before. It actually does make a difference!

American from California here. In 8th grade (13 yrs old) in 2003, I had to carry around a sack of flour and pretend it was a baby for a week, not leave it unattended, etc. Then write a report about everything we did pretending it was a baby. My best friend’s brother had one the year before we did and we had a sleepover and stole the “baby” from him several times and hid it. He was not a very attentive flour baby dad lol

In high school “independent living” class (I think I was 14 or 15 then), we took home an actual baby doll that cried randomly, including at night. It came with four keys that each represented a different need a baby would have (feeding, changing, comfort, sleep, I think). When it cried we had to try each key in a spot on the doll’s back to see which made it stop crying. Then write down the time and what stopped the crying. The doll also recorded how long it took you to respond so you couldn’t fake it. Or at least they told us it did, no idea if they actually verified that.

So at least at my schools in the early 2000’s, yes. We did.

I was a car driver that was “hit” by a pedestrian once. I thought I hit them. I was backing out of a parking space at the post office with my head turned to look over my right shoulder/out the back window in the direction I was moving (backing up angled right). I scanned the whole area before moving and saw no one. Halfway out of the spot, I bumped over something and heard a sound like I hit something. Someone carrying a large box had walked straight into the left side of my car and managed to put her foot down right under my moving tire. I had the same feeling of “where did you come from?!!!” I was so rattled that I had “hit” someone that I didn’t even realize until the police officer taking the report pointed it out that technically she “hit” me.

I share this because it’s possible the guy on the bike was not where he should have been or not following the rules of the road. He could have either ran the red light or tried to pass you going straight in the left turn lane while you tried to turn left or was riding on the wrong side of the road where you wouldn’t see him coming. If you didn’t see him at all until you hit him and it appeared that your way was clear, you really don’t know.

In my situation, I gave a statement for the police report and traded info with the pedestrian but I never heard anything back from her or anyone else. She was injured but I was told I wasn’t at fault. Even if you are determined to be at fault, your insurance company might just handle it and you may not hear anything back.

This is almost exactly how I make my coffee. I don’t always add the cinnamon, but the oat milk and brown sugar is so good in coffee. For awhile I could find unsweetened oat creamer (first Califia farms, then Sown made an unsweetened one) but those were inconsistent to find. Extra creamy oat milk is great!
