Watching the "Halloween is" episode of Pete & Pete 1. I remember being perplexed by the concept of being "too old" for trick-or-treats... With my dad annually wearing a rubber wolf mask, putting his glasses through the eye holes, and carrying his own candy bucket.

My new favorite catchphrase is, "It's okay to be sleepy." It originated on a morning where MB* was leaving for work while I slept in. I awoke to him soothing the cat to stay in bed too instead of attempting to follow MB*.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

They used the orchestral version of "The Last Time" in this show. As a child of the 90s, this does not read to me as a song by The Rolling Stones. Rather: 1. Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve 2. Futurama theme song

Republican candidate for US senate, Sununu, has an ad where he says healthcare costs too much. But what are you going to do about it? And his newest ad says that congressmen should pay for their own healthcare. So your plan if elected is to take away your own health coverage?

Parents' TVs used to have weird settings configured like the wrong aspect ratio or motion smoothing. I noticed my mom's cable box had the descriptive visual narrator for blind people turned on.

Anyone else think Alan Cumming was channeling Edith Prickley?

I saw "The Empire Strikes Back" for the 1st time as part of the '97 theatrical rerelease of the original trilogy. When Yoda came on screen I whispered to my dad, "That's Grover." I read the end credits and saw the name Frank Oz which I recognized from "The Muppet Show" credits. Confirmation.

I like to think I'm pretty smart. But then I read my annual escrow analysis which says we are going to be short $200 but also the payment is going down next year.
Screenshot of a portion of an escrow analysis document.
1. Your escrow has a shortage 
To take a closer look at your numbers, sign into Rocket Mortgage ®️ and click on the Escrow tab.
Due to an increase in your taxes and/or insurance, your escrow account is short $213.22.
2. Your payment is changing 
Pay $17.77 each month over the next 12 months. Your monthly escrow payment will decrease (highlighted) to $[REDACTED] to cover escrow expenses.

Today in household repair fails.... The scroll wheel on my sister's TV remote broke after being stepped on or something. It's the axle. So I was gonna drill a hole through the old wheel to fit a piece of bamboo skewer in as a replacement.

Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.

TIL that quartz crystals don't just naturally resonate at 32.768 kHz... We learned how to precisely manufacture them into shapes that resonate at 32.768 kHz. That also explains why my Dad was wary of the precision of computer clocks in the 80s and 90s.

Today in pedantry... I started watching the new season of "Monster" last night We had a scene where Lizzie Borden collected cherries from flowering trees. Didn't the set designers know that the fruit and flower are the same part of the plant? So you don't have flowers and fruit at the same time?

We planned on building our 12ft skeleton two weekends in a row and both weekends it rained all day Sunday. We finally got him up this afternoon! Now I have to wait until it gets dark to aim his purple spotlight.

Last night I heard the cat playing with something in a spot where I didn't think he had left any toys. I had to find out what. He stole the tiny ball of yellow yarn left after making these pillows.

Maybe one of the greatest costume designers ever ... I loved how he could add humor into his designs like this literal take on Scarlett O'Hara taking the drapes down to make a dress.
Bob Mackie sketch of Carol Burnett's Scarlett O'Hara curtain dress. A woman with Carol's cheeky grin is wearing a red hoop skirt dress and has an entire curtain rod across her shoulders. The curtain rod has green velvet drapes with the back layer acting as a cape and the front layer cinched around the waist using a decorative gold rope with huge tassels.  The opening of the front curtain is decorated with gold fringe and the cape features a valance with the fringe. A dainty hat made from one of the oversized gold tassels drapes over Carol's head and face.

I didn't submit my pillows to the fair bc I've been using the yellow one all year and I changed the grey yarn halfway through the front panel and I can tell. Maybe you can't but this is a low light photo....
Photo of two crocheted throw pillows on a teal couch. Both pillows use the same bobble stitch motif. One is solid goldenrod yellow and the the other is mostly grey but some of the dots are goldenrod and some are teal blue.
