Okay, I know he's in sales, but I just had a print rep drop off a proof and comment that my layouts stand out as notably good among the array of stuff they produce, and I'm beaming. :) <<beams>>

Allergies and the short-sightedness of maintaining a turf lawn in Colo. aside, I enjoy the smell of freshly-mown grass. Once upon a time, Gap Inc. sold a fragrance which accurately depicted it called, rather humbly, Grass. That is all. #memorytriggeredbyaneighborcurrentlymowing

JFC, Consumer Cellular has the WORST customer service. Each rep we've spoken with (we're in double digits now) has been polite, patient, and apparently incompetent. A month+ in, still can't send/receive text/iMessage. And our account details are always screwed up when we call in.

I am a person who made dinner—with all elements being done at approximately the same time—while also taking out the trash and recycling. Only took me 50 years to get here. //pats self on back//

I know, I know, I'm late to the party, but I finally watched Knives Out tonight. The only bad thing about it is that I hadn't seen it sooner. That there is some fine entertainment!

COVID-19 tests ship from city ~15 mi away, USPS sends them to…Lubbock, TX, ~550 mi away. "Possible delay in delivery due to arrival at incorrect carrier facility." Ya think? 7 days w/no tracking update since. Good thing it's not, like, a public health issue or something.

Rummaging through the fridge for backup dinner plan bc food box delivery is unlikely to make it through today's storm, and find a package of sausages I 100% forgot about buying all of three days ago. Happy to know we have food but disturbed by my current level of brain function.

After two years of working from home, people have forgotten considerate in-office behavior. No, it is NOT good form to take a call—personal or work-related—via speaker; not at your desk, not in the communal kitchen, and especially not in the loo. Have you lost your tiny minds?

Are Hello Fresh free meal cards the new AOL CDs?

I accidentally started reading the comments (it doesn’t matter; any comments) and now I need to Brillo my brain.

I have successfully avoided every scrap of information & opinion re: #TheSandmanNetflix, so it is with GREAT relief that I find myself approving of Tom Sturridge’s portrayal of our beloved Morpheus. Of course I should have trusted that Neil Gaiman wouldn’t let us down.

Me: I didn't realize I was set to autoship, can I cancel these orders? PetFlow: You're not set to autoship. Your account must've been hacked. Me: Someone fraudulently ordered MY cat's Rx food and shipped it to MY address? It's not simply a glitch on your end? PF: Correct. Me: 🤦‍♀️
