i have been trying for three days to get french toast but theres only one place near me that does french toast outside of weekend brunches + the first day i showed up at 11:45 and found out they stop doing breakfast at 11:30, and yesterday i showed up at 11:05 and found out they'd decided to stop doing breakfast at 11 for no reason. it is day 3 of this quest and if i dont manage to get french toast today i may riot

whatever they tell you being a morning person is so hard cause if u live with other people they get pissed at you if you wake them up by walking around and doing morning things + no one in yr timezone is awake and the only mutuals you can catch on at the same time as u are the ones from opposite time zones who r staying up. but i guess it's worth for witnessing the beauty of the sunrise good morning 🌄🙏
