I am genuinely excited to go grocery shopping this evening, just because the supermarket will be so nice and cool inside...

My mother got me a doll (Molly, the WWII one) and some books for Christmas shortly after I turned 8. We also had a subscription to American Girl magazine for a while. I played with Molly until I was 10 or 11, and I still have her in my closet.

My flossers arrived! They sent me fewer of them than I ordered, "due to out of stock." But even so, I did the math, and I now have enough flossers to meet my needs* for MORE THAN 12 YEARS. * (if I'm honest with myself about how often I actually floss, which is not as often as dentists recommend)

Yeah! I had no idea it existed until I heard it in the Season 3 finale of The Righteous Gemstones. It makes so much sense as a Dolly song.

I happened to get this fortune at dinner last night before going to see Kinds of Kindness. It… uh… does not reflect the tone or message of that film.

Also, unlike the hypothetical lion behavior he made up, spiderwebs have been around for all of human history and long before. They're not news because they're not *new*.

I’m in that same region, and I think Ware is also a pretty funny, “Who’s on first” kind of name for a town.

Okay, I washed out the inner part of the garbage can, which I definitely needed to do anyway, but I don’t think it was the only/primary source of stink. Now I suspect the kitchen sink drain, but I’m toooooo tiiiiired to deal with it tonight.

Of the list of 30 things I hoped to do during my two weeks off from work, I have completed about 25.75. That's almost 86%. I'm going to get a good grade on my staycation, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve.

In a way that is perhaps counterintuitive but that I hope proves true for a lot of left-leaning people, the debate debacle has galvanized my 71-year-old father to volunteer for the Biden campaign. I'm so relieved and proud that he's never been a Trump supporter (as several of his siblings are 😖).

Ordinarily I'm not a bulk-buyer, but this is a disability issue! My cerebral palsy affects my manual dexterity enough that using regular dental floss is really difficult for me. This flossing system with the handle is so much easier, and it distresses me that it might be recently/soon discontinued.

My favorite little dental floss thingies (the kind that attach to a reusable handle) have lately become surprisingly hard to find. I just tracked them down online and ordered the MAXIMUM PERMITTED QUANTITY of them, so I can hoard them like Elaine Benes with the birth-control sponges. #flossworthy

When I first saw this movie, I was at the height of my fandom of The Kids in the Hall, so my strongest memory of it is that Kevin McDonald has a small part in which he says, "Give him a hand-- he's British!"

Every Supreme Court decision is summarized like a logic puzzle involving quintuple negatives: “The Court ruled that states do not have the power to overturn the veto on the limits of the reversal of the challenge to the previous ban…”
