I recently watched a few episodes on Youtube from The Take on Sex and the City. They spent one episode on each of the four lead characters. Jeezuz, I’d forgotten how completely annoyed Carrie made me. I broke up with the series for good when she dumped Aidan, because it was an exhausting hate watch for me by then. SJP’…

I got my husband hooked on facial products by buying him a bag of mini-sized Jack Black for “man” faces a few years ago (decent stuff, I tried it too). He discovered that moisturizer was a pretty good idea, and was astonished over the magic of undereye cream. He even stepped up his routine with Dr Gross Alpha Beta…

Welp, at least she learned how to lean hard into the stupid.

A well done piece, Kelly. Cartland was a genre that never deviated or moved with the times. 

Have you tried baking with the squash? Think zucchini loaf/muffins but with your squash instead.

If anyone can make Christmas happen, it’s Mimi.

I read an interesting article in the Rolling Stone earlier this month about the Black Country Music Association starting up to try to promote its artists and address the lack of black representation in country music. Huge congratulations to Mickey for making it through a ceiling that ought to have been busted decades…

Prolonged stress can bring on a new level of Alzheimer’s, it’s true.

Oof, The Witch Elm really was a tough read. I loved the first 3 books but I think my romance with Tana began a steep decline by book 4 and now she’s just on my watch list instead of have-to-have.

It always seems that Fauci is trying to take the high road in his statements regarding Trump. He needn’t bother. And it’s been over 8 days, shouldn’t the cheeto be keeling over in steroid withdrawal by now instead of planning to waltz his covid ass to more rallies?

I would never trust Hollywood to get Hatshepsut right. But what a story!

Your question is how do I stay. I know that question, it was me 30 years ago. Then 25 years ago it changed to ‘is this what I really want to model to my kids as a healthy relationship’? It wasn’t, and I didn’t, and as things turned out my kids were not so oblivious at that age as I thought. You will do what is right…

Looking forward to the superspreader event numbers from this rally.

I wouldn’t mind the tinnitus so much if the damned note it hits wasn’t so high off my vocal register. All I can do is drown it out with other louder stuff.

I can channel a pretty decent Ethel Merman when an ear worm song is not to my liking and needs replacing.

This will make my daily walk around the pond more interesting.

I love the Ladybugs Picnic. Takes me back to when my son and daughter were small and avid Sesame Street fans. We even used to have an album called Born To Add which was a Sesame reversioning of popular songs, starting with Born to Run. That last makes watching all the Born To Run anniversary vids lately especially fun…

My husband has also been on a covid upgrade-my-music-gear spree. It started with paying attention to how little attention has been paid to his various guitars over the last year. Then came pickups. Then restringing and set ups. Then came the unholy pedalboard extravaganza. Many pedals, many, and ultimately a larger…

It is part of the Alzheimer/dementia test that my Mom had to take every time she went to the doctor. It was a decent way of tracking her decline. Nothing to crow about by a sitting President of the United States, yet it figures that he would. I have long suspected the Cheeto of having Alzheimers, and after care taking…

Big thanks for the link! We made this tonight after power watching many of his vids. It was outstanding!
