The Boy and I went for ice coffee and sat outside talking for a spell. No Mocking Birds or Hooded Crows, but we did meet two dogs.

Just watching my brother as an expert on a show he used to watch when he was a kid dreaming about space and volcanoes. 8 year old him would expect nothing less.

Which feels a lot like “he has the other half of the story and I would prefer you not coordinate your efforts”.

Mom has made it clear that I am NOT to bother my brother about “things” because he is very busy doing work. He needs to concentrate.

Pajamas are just pants we decided to call pajamas, so find some knit pants that are comfy and that work with her boots and decide they are pajamas.

Is it mind boggling? Or have we been putting tourists in ICE Detention and that feels like a pretty big con for a vacation pro/con list.

Sir, I don’t see how we make this work with the space we’ve been given, the rock face and cliff drop on either side, and the fact that I am in a small SUV and you are in a tour bus. This is barely enough room for a double stroller and a golden retriever to get by let alone 2 entire vehicles.

Ireland is amazing and there is so much here that is just better and more sensible, like clearly identifying allergens on menus and being a healthy functional democracy. But - this whole single lane/but two way traffic mountain pass the width of the sidewalk outside my house has to be rethought.

If you are ordering the crab and lobster plate in Cork, it’s crab with a C not crab with a K.

Anyway, Lake America is obviously a joke. We should all compliment him on his whimsy! And go about our business not spending another second on it.

I am reminded of the founder and an old boss. The founder had grand ideas like “there should be a statue of me in a park!” And the staff would be shocked and worried about why/how that would happen. The ED (boss) would smile and say “Oh Founder! You’re so funny!” And that was the end of it.

In 1985’s To Live and Die in LA, Willem Dafoe makes several criminal errors that cement him as the villain- not the least of which is the burgundy velour sweat suit in the gym scene - and absolutely the WORST CRIME is how he gouged the ink and loaded ink into the press in the printing scene.

It was a shit show here in Chicago too, they ended up taking over Grant Park for over a month and local events locals enjoy were canceled. Not to mention street closures. Hope they never come back.

The pandemic squashed our food truck culture here and I am so sad. There were several trucks I would look for - but we still have amazing tamales, tacos and other street vendors.

Why have we been asked for the last 20 years to coddle and show empathy for people who hold our children in such low regard? They show no empathy for immune compromised people. They show no empathy for their own children. Fuck them.

92% humidity - it should just be raining right? If there is 92% humidity that is just rain, and yet not rain. Just soup. Outside is broken.

So you do not work for the New York Times. Then my post wasn’t for you, as it was directed at the NYTimes and their utter failure to report the news and understand the time.

Some CEO who thinks people only work when watched has decreed that my husband has to go into the office 3 days a week starting today (instead of two) and our Dog is *concerned* as this is not approved, by her, and out of the norm, and who will pet her? Feed her? Take her outside? (Me.)

Powdered milk is so 70s. I remember thinking that I’d rather skip it if the milk was powdered because the smell gave me the ick the way sticky toddler Cheerios fingers and breath does.

Well, it’s mentally exhausting and demoralizing to consider so if some haircut in an shiny suit says it’s not real, that explains the appeal of Fox News.
