The defrost cycle in my refrigerator's freezer is broken, so every now & then I have to unplug & manually defrost it, chipping away a small glacier that could make many cocktails. Freezerburn martini, anyone?
One of the things I loved best about college dorm life was community access without the need to put on shoes. This is the promise of urbanism, compact communities, and I miss and want that.
It's clearly mating season, as Tucker has been increasingly noisy around other dogs. But I feel it too. More guys are wearing shorts and when I see meaty calves I think, "Get ON me!"
Bestie is in the hospital again. Nurse is one of my neighbors because small world. "Oh, this is your 'Ryan'." (Her husband is also a Ryan.) "Everyone needs a Ryan."
I just realized one of my besties parents double spaces after periods in texts. This still exists in the wild and the juxtaposition while I swipe this whole post is wild.
Before Mastodon: That year I had a matched set. All of these dogs have been awesome. I have been so spoiled for obedience, and always a sucker for that tricolor face. <3 #Sheltie
My current TV died before the longevity/price ratio of my last TV (that I had fixed once) and I'm not even going to try to fix it. I know the crazy number of complicated factors why, but it still makes me sad.
I know many people just stream everything now, but a local media library is still invaluable. (Internet goes down) Where's your entertainment NOW? cackleclick 🎶 "We. Are. Fa-mi-ly..."
I was late to work, but I'm my defense I had to negotiate with (only slightly) unexpected traffic. Still, my commute is probably prettier than yours. #Alaska#Winter#Trail#Moose
I was trying to place the frustration I had with work instructions last week when it hit me. I avoided corporate when I saw them or else I surely would have found myself in the principal's office.
Because it just came up, a thing I love for dampening outside noise, both literally and socially, is a big ol' set of over-the-head ear cans. While most people seem to be wandering around with ear buds now, nothing says "I can't hear you" like a good set of cans, and you can meanwhile infuse whatever you want into your headspace. #audiophile#music
