Why does "Boogie Shoes" come on every time I'm waiting in line at the post office? Not complaining, but it does seem odd.

Without downloading any new pics, what is it like dating you? (I've been married for quite some time, so this is fairly accurate:)

I was in the touristy part of my town, at a general store I'd never been to before, buying fancy mustard for an online gift swap (I know, exciting life!), and an older woman walked in with a schipperke on a leash... my schipperke passed away 2 years ago, & they basically all look exactly the same.

I've been getting this song in my head near-daily for weeks. When I was in late junior high or early high school (so, a couple of years after the tribute album was released), a friend put it on a mixtape for me, that's probably the only reason I even remember it... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y21V...

Thankful that I was able to get a COVID vaccine today; it'd been a little over a year because I got COVID (for the 3rd time) about 6 months ago and didn't want to get vaccinated again right after.

It took me a long time to realize that the reason I get this song in my head almost every day is because the sound that my car's turn signal makes reminds me of it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1tO...

Someone at work asked what my plans were for the weekend and the best I could come up with was spray-painting a pumpkin gold. In explaining why I felt I had to go off on an aside about hating "The Golden Girls." Again, no wonder I am not often included in group lunches!

Saturday night: drank orange wine, briefly became convinced that I needed a Mike + the Mechanics shirt (I do not). The less said about the earlier part of the week, the better.

Oh dear... honestly, I want a toasted sesame bagel with butter and peanut butter (butter first and then peanut butter on top of that).
Tell me your bagel order and I will tell you *based on NYC cultural expectations* if you have won or lost your election for political office in NYC.
One of my favorite things about NYC is whenever anyone runs for office here they are required to disclose their bagel order.

At work today I was happy that the folks who don't usually ask me to order/eat lunch with them asked me, and I even had time to eat w/them. But then they mostly talked shit about 2 of my other co-workers during lunch, so wow, the things they must say about me when I'm not there (I'm really weird)!

Really amusing "solved" sudoku that we found in an activity book at our table when we we ended up at an "Amsterdam-style" coffee shop last night (while killing time before the prog/psych night at the tiki bar).

Had the art piece "The Unicorn Rests in a Garden" flash in my head during the most painful part of my massage today (it'd been years since I got a massage, and I have chronic back pain).

First world problems... the coffee shop I go to before work one morning per week was already down to only one pastry I liked, raspberry white chocolate scones. Recently they proudly announced that they'd improved the recipe. Now the scones are like vaguely berry flavored chalk. Oh well!

I was trying to think of the word for a coaster (the thing one sits a drink on). Since I am a little more than halfway through reading Moby-Dick, I first thought "cutlass" and then "compass."

Grendel was assigned reading in high school, I think my teacher had been a pupil of the author?
King's The Gunslinger though, I read that when I was in single digits so yeah, probably too young.
