The front window, generally. It’s a corner shop so they can see me crossing the street.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

That's an intense bond you've got with them then.

[charlie-jfc]

Where do you order from? Clearly I must try it if its that good. Feel free to give me your name and number along with the restaurant information too.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Lang's Gourmet. Ah, Esme Pearce. Would you like my number or my boyfriend's? 

[the-jacewright-blog]

Hey, I’m the exact same way! That and when I go to the burger place they start my order before I even walk in the door.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

How do they see you coming?

[axel-perkins]

Its so worth it, though.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Chinese food is always worth it. 

[charlie-jfc]

Nothing wrong with being a regular.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

You've got that right.

[mrjameswalsh]

That’s also a good thing — it means you’re making friends in good places, they might add something extra to your order for free.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Sometimes I get extra noddles just for being a frequent customer.

[phoebe-beaumont]

Now that lady sounds like a saint in human form and you should go thank her. But hey—You like food what’s so up with that?

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I'm a big fan of food. Especially Chinese.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

-- You know you consume too much takeout when the lady who answers the phone knows you by the sound of your voice and already has your usual written down.

"I’m totally kicking your ass at this! —- Or, wait, are you telling me I’ve been looking at the wrong screen this whole time and you didn’t tell me? I’m calling that cheating.”

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

"It's not cheating when you're playing Sims. It's just...letting your Sim die."

Now onto the more important matters —

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Yeah, I've got some. Isn't it a little early?

[claudmerwin]

Those that have the little Hershey’s kisses on top of them?

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Is there any other kind?

[claudmerwin]

Peanut butter. 

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

I can do peanut butter. 

[atticusfitzgerald]

You are. But you’re also more than family. You get a higher status than my mom would get, for example.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

If that's the case, please stop acting like Mr. Mopey Pants for a little while and spend New Years with Lila and I?

You can't sit here and dwell on it.

[claudmerwin]

What kind of cookie? 

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

Any cookie of your choosing.

[atticusfitzgerald]

—My family lives here in New York. You and my daughter live here. I’d choose teaching high school over moving to some other state.

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

I figured we'd be lumped in with family. 

[claudmerwin]

Yes, I’ve had a very tough holiday season and I think I deserve one for not having slapped anyone. 

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

I'll make you a single star shaped cookie. Treasure it.

[claudmerwin]

Hey, I am totally nice. I haven’t even said one mean thing to Julian. 

[esmeraldapearcearchive]

I'm incredibly proud of you. Would you like a gold star?
