Happy Tuesday/Lunar New Year/Lent/Paczki Day/Mardi Gras/Ramadan 🫶🏻

I hope your day is filled with good things and good people and things that make you happy. I hope there is delicious food (whenever you partake) that fills you up, and I hope that someone or something today makes you smile.

I hope you have a lovely Monday, ducks.

I hope that, whatever time it is, the day treats you kindly and that you have the opportunity to do things that make you smile, that the people and things in your day serve to make your day better, and that you know you're rocking it by being you.

I have the day off of work today, which means I got a little bit more time snuggling with the Pep, who is in her quiet snoring phase and it's just so adorable.

I was today years old when I learned Arden Cho is also a skilled/high-ranked poker player. And I learned this in (one of) the nerdiest ways -- her intro for Wait Wait Don't Tell Me

IT IS A TRAVESTY THAT STRICTLY BALLROOM IS NOT WINNING THIS ONE! Sure, Austenland is charming & has Jennifer Coolidge, but STRICTLY BALLROOM is sparkle & guyliner & blue eyeshadow & yearning & swoons.

This month it's early 80s country/pop crossover queen Juice Newton!

#2

This became her first hit on the pop chart, reaching #4 in 1981. It was the first country video played on MTV, and has been used in countless tv shows and movies.

I had no idea! Noah Wyle, you continue to surprise and delight me
Genuinely my strongest memory of ER is when Noah Wyle's character (the rich scion doctor) talks about rolling a fabergé egg across his family's dining room table and, wait, you're telling me he's actually that guy??

Did You Know? Every Friday The 13th Is King Friday XIII’s Birthday
Fred Rogers thought it would be fun to name his puppet King Friday XIII. So many people are superstitious about that day; he wanted to make it a fun day instead. So every Friday the 13th would be a celebration of the King’s birthday.

It's Friday! And happy Galentines Day to all of you. (Or Friday the 13th if you prefer ❤️)

May your day have something unexpectedly nice happen or appear that you can enjoy. I hope you get to do something you like or want to do. And I'm here to remind you that you're swell 🫶🏻

This looks like it would work better than my 21st century drain strainer!
Have you ever seen a Roman plumbing device that is both genius and gorgeous? Just look at this bronze drain strainer, found in the Roman baths at Weißenburg, Germany, dating2nd/3rd century AD!

Fun fact about me: I can't wear a fitness tracker while I knit because I'm a thrower and I wear my fitbit on my dominant arm so it tracks steps while I knit 😆

Happy Thursday ducks.

I hope something delightful happens today that makes you smile and/or laugh, that you feel supported and lifted up, and you have some time to do something that you want to do

And I want to remind you that you're doing a great job. You've got this.
