Care for the job?
I don't when I'm going to learn to quit following your links. Satin pants really?
Well damn now I'm hooked. Looks like my Em. Love it when you cheat.
Em is a smooth Peke, but the face is very similar to hers. Has gotten her out of trouble more than once over the years.
No, guess I would be considered a noob still. 4 months vaping, 4 months off the cigs. Maybe 5, would have to ask wife...
Except for a pathetic attempt at break dancing in the 80's, very little in my wardrobe has ever been shiny, and never pants...
90VG this is the best Vietnamese place in Tucson. The owner/cook is first generation I think, but he taught us all how to pronounce Pho (my son loves it) and they're stuff is excellent: Ha Long Bay. Pho 88 if you want authentic (we are talking pickled chicken feet and etc. My brother dragged me there until I finally started to enjoy it... Not for the faint of heart, LOL). It's ah, well, earthy Vietnamese.
Best Italian (again authentic but it is SO GOOD) Guiseppe's Italian Restaurant. Bit on the pricy side.
Gee's Garden is probably the best Chinese food in Tucson that I've found (and they do Dim Sum) but also great carry out... They have a huge banquet area for Dim sum and unless you are doing that I kind of recommend takeout-- it's carpeted and smells a bit like Dim Sum all the time
Korea House (if you like Korean food) again on the "authentic" side and the interior is ugly but they do pretty good Korean...
Indian Food: Sher-E Punjab Homestyle Cuisine (it's in this super run-down shopping center on Grant Road, but the food itself is fantastic and lots of options, as it does several styles of Indian Cuisine. Again, the décor is... Well, it's run down a bit, but I haven't found an Indian Restaurant in Tucson that's better...
Finally, PIZZA. Magpie's is voted #1 and is down on 4th avenue and you can see how the RUINED the old trolley by turning it into a vaguely frightening tram.... Which now goes further than up and down 4th. I still hate it.
I prefer Upper Crust Pizza (actually RIGHT NEXT DOOR) to the dreaded Karuna's but honestly their pizza is some of the best in Tucson. They hipstered it up, so be prepared to wait if you are going during a hipster time period, but it's great pizza!
Hope some of this helps. Keep in mind I've been here 10 years now so it may not compare to some of your locations, but I'd say this is a reasonable start.
If you like Mexican food (I don't) be prepared for "authentic" Mexican for the most part, which if I ever have to eat another bowl of menudo in my life, I will be very very sad (was always eating it at work when we'd have pot lucks and it was so NOT awesome) but even the Taco bells around here are often unusually spicy or otherwise slightly changed.... I actually don't mind that, but I do NOT go out of my way to eat Mexican in Tucson, so I'm probably no use to you there.
Good luck, have fun and safe travels if you visit!

Thank Anna. A nice rundown of good places to eat. I haven't been down to Tuscon for a while, maybe 2002.
You covered most of the types of food I'd eat. Well, it's a travel day again here, gotta load up.

Ugh. Shinyitis happened. This was pure irritation on my part, as I "awoke" the husband again, and he was super unpleasant for a long time! It was 6 a.m. when I woke him up and I don't quite see how that is "late" except the idiot has had problems sleeping forever... And will he do something about it? No, no he won't.
When I merely pointed out that since expecting me to be as silent as the grave is stressful (I knocked over a mod) and that he might try earplugs, well that kind of went over like a lead balloon... I wish the guy would like, do something about it (even if it's ONLY wearing earplugs) that wouldn't require silent perfection on MY part. I mean, *I* wear them since he grinds his teeth and "doesn't like" a mouth guard, it's not the most difficult thing in the world to do. I try really hard to stay quiet until 7:30 a.m. but it SUCKS and it's practically impossible to do consistently especially as I am WAKING UP... hence, clumsy. He thinks it's "lack of effort" but I don't.
So, I (knowingly and with full awareness) got that Steamtuner's DNA mod that I've been coveting for ages (found out yesterday that it was a two battery mod which made me covet it more) from FT.
I suppose it's not too late to cancel, but man, it's HARD sometimes all those hours I am awake in darkness and that's actually my best time to get stuff DONE. (Once I wake up) and it's just frustrating.... Especially when being asked to be scary quiet... Maybe I need to go hide out in the spare bedroom? I mean, we don't have great insulation but it might help. I just don't know what to do on this one. I can't buy a mod every day until this is resolved... I am going to have to think of something, though.
I think I'm keeping the mod, LOL, I got it for a great price and I DESERVE it (or so I feel) after this morning's... I suppose it falls under a conversation. Emotional shinyitis though... That's not a good habit for me to engage in.
Maybe I could insert the earplugs once he's asleep? Pillow over his head (gently) as I wake up? IDK. He won't LISTEN though, to any of my suggestions. I'm kind of wishing HE had a fine motor tremor, but that's just mean. Maybe for a day, so he could see what it's like. LOL.
