Charlie's first experience with snow this morning: The deck was covered, but the driveway was bare. Hesitant to go outdoors, and then feet every which way to cross the snow as quickly as possible. Not so much that the snow was scary--I just don't think he liked the feeling between his toes.

Beauti-Tone Pure >>> Sico Evolution. Good riddance to the crap paint coverage and adherence that I've lived with for the past two years!

If you're the sort of person who sees nothing wrong with placing overly large or complicated orders in a busy drive-thru line, you suck!

Got a bottle of VooDew 2025 (Mountain Dew, Canadian version). I'm torn between white Freezie and Popsicle rocket (the tri-color one) as its mystery flavour.

Does it defeat the purpose of contact lenses if I've been working at my computer wearing +1.00 reading glasses? (instead of no contacts and my usual progressives)

i feel like ai is what cocaine was in the early 1900s … like, let’s put it in everything until we realize it’s probably not a great idea for it to be in everything.

Remember when shareware games used to fit on a single 1.44MB floppy? 🕹️💾 Now, we're greeted with multi-GB system updates before we can play anything, assuming that the game also doesn't have a massive mandatory update pending too. 🎮⏳🥱

Sign I'm getting old: I play entirely too much solitaire against the computer -- Canfield, Demon, Thieves of Egypt, Spite and Malice. ...Next stop? Bingo in the multipurpose room. 👴

Tip: Schedule you winter tire changeover NOW while the getting is good; before "snow" appears in the forecast, sending everyone scrambling. ❄️🚗 Booked mine for next week with an abundance of appointment times to choose from.

Tried the new local barbershop, although hesitant about change--Doubted that I was even cool enough to set foot in the place too. Ultimately, got one of the best haircuts that I've had in years. 💈💇♂️👍

Charlie has learned how to get on the back of the couch: Note that it's a reclining couch with a narrow-ish back; and it's not against a wall, so there's nothing to prevent him from falling. Why is my chihuahua pretending to be a cat? And when will his teenager phase be over? #PuppyLife
