I’m vegetarian. I can’t eat meat on my migraine meds, it tastes rancid as a side effect of the meds.
It smelled great though.

TSP?
No, that's "tsp" not "TSP." And not Trisodium Phosphate, either.
Textured Soy Protein, though it looks like it's better known under the acronym "TVP" instead.

Is that earlier than normal?

"Normal" for me, for the last 16 years or so, has been to wake up at 9 to be at work somewhere between 10 and 10:30.
Granted, that meant I was getting home somewhere around 7:30 pm.
But I am not a morning person.
When? I'm coming up on 5 years of 6:30AM and the negative effect it has on me hasn't gone away yet.
Have you tried having children?
That just seems like another thing that forces you to be awake early. Not something that makes you feel better about it.
You end up in a magic place where they sleep in and you are up at 6 AM anyway, and there's so much room for activities!
Between a job at a bagel deli in college and having to commute into the city, I spent so many years having to get up between 5:30-6 am that I have reached the point where getting up between 7-7:15 is almost a luxury. And I am definitely not a morning person.
I am not a morning person either, but I do like that my kids get up by themselves early (I know that will change with age). I like that stores are empty in the morning, and the by the time the zoo gets crowded, we're already done.
You know what sucks?
Meeting a super cute, witty girl at work who you have great conversations with...
...and is also 19.
And I'm 500% on the "NOPE!" side of that (I learned that lesson once already), but it still sucks.

Good way of looking at it.
I think she's interested. And I'll be upfront and honest about it with her. And tactful.
". . . yeaaaah, I'm old enough to be your father.Good way of looking at it.

No, calling me 'Daddy' does not make it any less disturbing. Quite the opposite, in fact."
I'm a morning person and love being up at 5 AM, 6 AM ... but the downside is that I can't stay awake anywhere as late as anyone else. Like, 9 PM? That's when I start to doze.
The ideal existence is to neither need nor want sleep.

Possible bright side to previous post: I told one of my best friends about the girl, and how I'm just feeling lonely.
He...might have a single friend living in my area that might mesh well with me. But he's gonna talk to her about it.
(She's also 35, so a MUCH more appropriate age!)

"Sooooo, your mother, does she look like you by any chance?"
"I'm told I take after my dad, actually."
oh well, I can work with that.
Good one!Needs an aloha shirt.
