    I carefully placed a spider outside the office one day only to watch a bird swoop down and carry it off.

    If the lights and the refrigerator are still on, what's to bitch about? :cool:

    I love thunderstorms, let it reign down...

     
  4. when "Odo" died, someone here posted some of René Auberjonois last writings on social media.
    He knew he was going to die and posted among other things this quote from Kurt Vonnegut:

    "And i was some of the mud that got to sit up and look around,
    lucky me...lucky mud"


    i think of that quote every now and then, also today... i helps me remember how lucky i am.
    my little life is awesome...

    We only get to stick on the muddy wall for a short time, and then most of us get washed away.

    I've had the lights on all day because of how dark and gloomy it is outside. Maybe it's the end of the world after all.

    Yeah, and I look around myself, and it's not exactly HD.






    Maybe I should clean my glasses.

    When your parents and other older relatives learned email, did they constantly forward you meaningless things? And when they learned smartphones, did they do the same thing with texting?

    I am that old person on the internet. I text “pew pew” to my son at least once a week.

    No, my mom never did. She only emails to communicate to multiple family members at once. She still refuses to text, though.

    Hubby's bat-shit crazy sister used to email me all the time, so I had to just flat out tell her not to email me EVER.--no family news, no political posts, no e- cards, no nothing.

    Almost missed that it's a new month, and therefore time for the June installment of my Winona Ryder Avatar Calendar 2020:

    Who remembers when Winona was in a band with Giovanni Ribisi and John C. Reilly?

    Did you ever notice that some days the coffee just smells and tastes better than on other days? I'm having one of those mornings.

    I was today years old when I found out that the KFC twitter account only follows eleven people:

    - All five members of the Spice Girls

    - Six guys named Herb

    So that's their secret blend of eleven Herbs and Spices

    I feel like a major YouTube channel clickbaited me. They had a video on what the movie A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood got right and wrong. But they never once mention that the journalist character is a fictionalized version of the man whose article the movie is based on. So they point out how his name is different in the movie as an example of what the movie got wrong. Then they point out how his father's name in the movie isn't correct either. Then they point out how his sister's wedding in the movie never actually happened. And this part of the video keeps going in this direction.
