There’s an age where “Mmm please step on me” becomes less about thirst and more about lower back pain

I’ve moved on to a restaurant to soak up the alcohol, and hanging at the bar because that what you do when you’re solo. I’m having a great time snarking with the bartender about the other drink patrons. (Also: drunk at 7Pm on a Friday? Amateurs.)

I’m at my favorite taproom (Beer Bazaar in Grayslake). All of the staff asked after Charlie (who almost always accompanied me here), and were sad to hear the news. It makes me glad that he is remembered fondly though.

This has not been a great week for me. I'm stressed out, feeling scattered, and finding myself trying really hard not to get snappish and cranky with people. I'm hoping to take some time to reset this weekend because next week probably isn't going to be any better.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Do I know anyone local with a color printer and a laminator? (or a non-local friend who might help me out?) I've got a new art badge and I wanted to have it ready for MFF.

With the sudden dip in temps I realized that for the last 15 years, I've had to go out in all kinds of weather, from 105°F and humid to wind chills of -40°F, because the dogs needed their walks. Now, if the weather is bad I just...don't go out. Which is normal for most people, but so weird for me.

As expected, the overnight lake effect snow patterns were pretty wild. At least in Lake County (north of Chicago), they got 10" of snow on the lakefront. Meanwhile I'm 17 miles away on the western edge of the county and barely even got a trace of snow. It's gonna be a wild winter.

No spoilers from me, but the final for this season of Great British Bake Off was *so* good. I will always love how wholesome this show is, and how all of the contestants cheer each other on.

What's that you say, Bookbub? Kaje Harper just released another prequel to her Hidden Wolves series? *instabuy*
If you like your werewolves sexy and gay and with compelling plotlines, I can highly recommend Harper's series. It's one of my favorites.

Well, that is certainly an interesting branding choice: “Come to Fat Rosie’’s, where you can get white-girl wasted!”

Chicago is firing up that lake effect snow machine!
For non-locals: this happens when wind blows from the east across Lake Michigan. The fun part is that it's extremely localized, and is entirely dependent on wind direction. One area may get 6" of snow while someplace 5 miles away gets maybe 1".

With the weather turning colder, I need to make another batch of Robin Ha's Korean Chile Chicken Stew. Fortunately NPR's article on their cookbook includes that recipe! www.npr.org/sections/the... Let's see if I can make it without blowing my head off with the spice level (again) 🙂

Welp, I knew this was a possibility. The abutment for the tooth implant I started the process on 8 months ago didn't seat well. So it got pulled, and more bone graft applied. Now I wait 4-6 months before we try again. I may actually have a upper second molar again by July 4th next year.

I adore my eye doctor, even though we only see each other once per year. We've spent the last 8 years commiserating, as both of our husbands passed away around the same time.
When I saw her today, she said she was having a tough time because her dog recently passed away. [1/2]
