Solidarity to everyone else who chose a massive 3 in 1 Lego set to give as a gift to a little one, was told to build it, and then told to build it as a different one on Boxing Day. I hope you found appropriate substitutions for all the pieces you couldn't find.

I don't know when I started tipping my phone away on potentially-frightening videos, or scrolling the video up so there is just a sliver visible (if the app allows), but I lived through the jump-scare era and learned defenses. It does something and stops the video (or jump) from being scary.

Duolingo is very proscriptive about when the end of the day is for a company with an owl mascot. Midnight is early for nightOWLS and I still want my streak.

When you pull 500+ pounds of clay out of your garden, strain it, and store it - then lose momentum on the project you end up trying to find ways to use clay in every subsequent project.

I really think there is a market for a website where you type in a home/apartment address and it tells you if there has ever been a murder conviction tied to that house.

Getting vaccines (flu + COVID) gives you the good parts of getting sick - sore and creaky in a cozy way, relishing getting under a comforter and stretching and feeling it warm up - that gives you a free evening as Frog and Toad.

Writing is so intimidating for many reasons and knowing you're going to be psychoanalyzed by everyone that reads it is a big one. Listen, these are not MY weird sexual peccadillos. They are the weird sexual peccadillos of my characters ... in a work of fiction ... says so on the cover.

It's the stress of being the first person in the TO: line of the all-staff email from your boss. Why did your boss think of you first? Is this significant? They did last week too.

A car with two of the same bumper stickers always gets me. Why? What extra is conveyed about your interest in Monster Energy drinks by displaying it twice?
There is a parallel in insignia, the BMW M1 has two roundels on the rear. I don't get it.

I change my look often - different facial hair, hair length, style, clothes I gravitate to. And I'm in a very strange position regularly where my concept of what I look like lags how I look. It is a weird thing to look in the mirror and see someone I don't recognize.
He is a handsome guy though.
