And two Christmas ornaments. Everyone needs a Christmas dragon.

One dark teal hand blown glass heart with white pearl beads in the shape of a snowflake. And a light blue dragon with light green and gold glitter wings.

I also got a "bowl cozy" which is like a pot holder but sewn so it also form a bowl that you put a hot bowl in so you can hold it. Probably works for cold things too. Like late night ice cream while watching Leverage reruns.

Absolutely perfect day for Apple picking, cider donuts, and a hay ride.

A tiny perfect red apple in my hand with the orchard row on either side down a small slope.

I saw an article about a woman who posted to TikTok a picture her dad took at Disneyland in the 60s because she thought he was a time traveler. The algorithm then filled my feed with other time travelers. Guys...

A side by side of supposed time travelers because they are both men wearing what vaguely looks like modern clothing, the first is a man with short hair and glasses wearing a dark blue short sleeved shirt (in the 1960s) and a man wearing a dark crew neck shirt with sunglasses in a black and white photo from the 1920s ish.

And then did a walk around the Vanderbilt mansion.

Finally decided (picked via random number generator) on my next read:

Cover of The Race to the Future by Kassia St. Clair. The title is in racing red, big bold letters, with a cartoon old time cat in the center as it zooms along on its old timey adventure.

Just saw this on reddit. How have I never seen this meme before?

Meme:
First panel: Zoe cradles Wash after "Leaf on the Wind" in the movie Serenity. "Wash! Baby, baby no! Come on, you gotta move!" (He is not going to move...)
Second panel: Grandson in Princess Bride: "Wait, what do you mean Wash is dead? Wash is only faking right?"
Third panel: Grandfather, "You want to watch this movie or not?"
Fourth panel: Grandson, "Who gets the Operative?"
Fifth panel: Grandson con't, "Who kills the Operative? In the end, someone has to do it. Is it Zoe? Who?"
Sixth panel: Grandfather, "Nobody. Nobody kills him. He lives."
Seventh panel: Grandson, "You mean he wins?"
Eighth panel: Grandson con't, "Jesus, Grandpa! What'd you show me this gorram movie for?"

End meme.

Post a perfect album from the 90s. (Not to get all nostalgic and "back in my day" but the 90s did have a lot of good music...)

Cover of the 1994 album The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails.

I was actually told by a friend of mine she thought it was "too intense" for me.

In the midst of an existential crisis I thought, "How about some light reading?" And this was what I pulled from the pile.

Cover of the 2021 book "The Ministry for the Future" which was also one of Barak Obama's favorites that year. It's about climate change! A real laugh riot. :/

We went to two bookstores, something called Runnings, the mall, and a local tavern for food before heading home and wow I'm done in. But I bought probably the prettiest book I've ever seen.

The Library of Flowers by L. C. Chu, the cover has a floral arrangement in brilliant yellows and reds with colorful birds all on a yellow background.

"Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains." I have three. One of my go to stress relieves was driving around in my car and sing as loud as I can to all three and they all are still in rotation.

Three album covers in a row. The first is Criminal by Fiona Apple, the second is Aenima by Tool, and the last is Beth Hart's Screamin' for My Supper.
