I am recovering from Covid, the upper respiratory one.

I was afraid I was going to 'go' while trying to read all that.

We have a Dairy Queen but I Have not shopped there
since getting deathly food poisoned with their
hot dogs about 20 years ago.

Once burned, twice shy ;-)

In Oregon, when you get a jury summons, they select from that same pool for the Grand Jury, and they usually select the first arrivals as no one wants to be tied up in a Grand Jury which lasts longer and is not over after one trial as is the regular Jury.

I hate to say it but that is exactly what happened
at my last jury trial, some of the jurors started
playing grab-*** the moment we were behind
doors..there were 2 counts, burglary and assault
(neither of which happened) so one old lady says,
let's just vote one guilty and one not guilty
and we can go home, at which point everyone
began whining about being home by lunchtime.

I was so disgusted.
The next summons for jury (I got one every 2 years,
sheesh) when I told what happened at the last one
I got excused, note to self ;-)

You look surprised so I am guessing..nothing.

hahahahahahahahahahahahah

That could go two ways.

Wearing those heels would express confidence in your
look as everyone knows you would look taller
and you would be good with that.

Or, if you are in a short world..just remember..all
of we shorties are envying you.

How may do you think you will be needing?

Welcome ;-)

So I guess a hairy man would freak them out if
they are as judgmental as you.

I find most foreign languages..sexy..except those
that can set off a fire alarm.

She just ordered the one drink, each time?

Which probably seemed normal to her, as a drinker.
It also might have been her attempt at 'loosening up'
with a stranger.

I do not drink either so it does make me wonder
what kind of job she had to go back to that
would tolerate afternoon cocktails.

The fact that she dumped you for not paying for
her drinks also says a lot. Can we assume she
knew you were a teetotaler? If so, that
understanding should have gone both ways.

Kristi is a former Admin on here so I would go with her correct answer.

Congratulations...amateur ;-)

Don't blame Shirley.

ONE of us can't read ;-)

No.
That is the point of a red flag, it gives a subtle
(or not so subtle) hint of what is to come.

I think dishonesty runs a consistent course.

Ignore at your own risk.

Seems simple, she is a thief.
Taking from you to give someone else a gift?

That red flag is hiding a corrupted spirit.

Some people are worthy of teasing ;-)

Gee, Blondey...
I like your kitchen ;-)

What you want sis, is a dog.

You must be just awful ;.)
