If inadvertently bringing home sand from the beach in your swimsuit was an Olympic sport I feel confident I could bring home at least a bronze.
I have Not seen the new Wicked movie but every preteen girl I have seen this weekend has been particularly joyful and smiling like she understands the world now.

Public service announcement #beachsky it is not cool to set up between someone already situated on the beach and the water. There’s plenty of space. It’s not ok to put your cooler and umbrella and hang out between me and the Atlantic Ocean. It’s Mermaid Sunday. Be nice.

I have a mild obsession with decorative man hole covers. I usually check them out when traveling but this one in Ft Lauderdale on our way to dinner last weekend near the river was just too pretty to pass up.

This has to stop
A US citizen filmed federal agents smashing his car window, as authorities begin a surge of immigration enforcement operations in North Carolina.

The Honduran-born Charlotte resident filed a police report after the officers let him go.

My mom is a sweet southern lady in her 70's who has been struggling with her love of Trump and the release of the Epstein files. Today she called me kind of giggly & confused, and she had taken a "gumby". Apparently one of my siblings gave her something to help take her mind off the news. Hilarious.

Weird that we have a planet-wide magnetic defense system that self activates when the sun decides to attack but it is very pretty

Painfully jealous of everyone who got to see the northern lights last night. Please keep posting pics!

It turns out that people have strong opinions in a game of Fuck Marry Kill with the Jonas Brothers.

I had two separate interactions this morning where someone went out of their way to be a douche. I just can't imagine how exhausting it must be to go around and deliberately be a jerk on a very regular basis.

Finished watching the new season of Nobody Wants This with my cute Jewish husband (yep we’re that couple) and my main takeaway was how much I wanted to wash Kristen bells hair the whole time. Is that an issue or is that a choice? You can move in if ya wash your hair.

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now.

100% serious here.

Ordered 3 pieces of Ikura this afternoon from door dash and I know it was decadent and obnoxious but I think it’s a moon situation and obviously the right decision.

Fully frustrated at how many people think that we have fewer daylight hours because of the time change and not because of the tilt of the earth's axis. People! We just shift the hours that we have daylight. That's all. Clocks can't change how many hours of daylight we get. #science

This south Florida cold front is wonderful. It’s in the 70s low humidity and I just did almost 4 hours of yard work without breaking a sweat. I might make a celebratory margarita and have it on my freshly pressure cleaned patio.

I just got one of those speeding tickets mailed to me today that was issued from a camera (City of Hollywood) for going 46 in a 35 mph zone. Wildly annoyed by this.

Incredible imagery this morning of Melissa, a Category 5 storm, south of Jamaica.
