17pts to genius. Good enough, Spelling Bee.

Anyway, time to stretch & fold some sourdough bread. After I add the Parmesan and rosemary.

Interesting

Close up of the game Flock Together, where you play in a henhouse!

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekGforGames

Me in a boardgame store in Cherbourg, France that I just stumbled into. 2018

I guess I should’ve started with that last question. But i thought the original request of “send ALL” kinda covered that. 🤷🏼‍♀️

#taxbs #taxsky

Me to broker: ok, I can see the transfer of funds and securities in these statements. And several mention yet another account with this specific number. Please send statement for this exact account also.

Broker sends that 1.

Me to broker: please confirm how many accounts client has.

Broker: 6

Me to client’s new broker: Please send statements for ALL the client’s accounts.

Broker sends 4.

Me to broker: um, what about the original account opened in 2024 that I already knew about?

Broker sends that 1.

Story continued, of course…

"We can't do our ethnic cleansing if you make us follow the 4th Amendment" is a major Republican talking point now

When I say the GOP can persist or the Republic can persist but not both, what I mean is the GOP is explicitly abandoning the Bill of Rights.

I live in San Diego, everything that has been “disruptive” about immigration in the last several years is a direct result of the government trying to make immigrants confused, hungry, and miserable. It has nothing to do with the immigrants themselves.

Trump supports Victor Orban who has made Hungary to become the poorest country of the EU by looting, corruption and selfishness. This is the future where you are heading too America.

Here’s a theme for me!

A game called Spots! About dogs!

Roses

Ok! That’s not what I expected. ‘Cause it’s just the Passion of Christ with rock music. Huh. Seriously I didn’t know what Jesus Christ Superstar was. I’m probably confusing it with Godspell — which I’ve also never seen, but I understand is funny. Or at least funnier than Superstar.

Seeing the musical/rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar in a local small town community production. It’s better than my expectations, with two *outstanding* voices: Mary Magdalene and Pontius.

My first time ever seeing it. Intriguing.

Would be a great display case for our dice collection… but we already have something. This won’t last long.

Is it an actual Joan Moro print? I may go back some day and see if it’s still there.

We keep saying we need one of these doggy buggies for our dog but we felt this is a leeetle too small.

The trex shirt is too big for my daughter, too small for my husband. Maybe I should’ve bought it for ME?! Another reason to go back.

Other things we did not buy:

Readers, today we did not buy a $3600 gilt 7-foot-tall mirror. We figured out where it could go in the house, but we have other plans for any money that large.

We had a fun Valentines morning walking through several antique/thrift shops. Spent a whopping $9 on a game and two plastic skull glasses.

Yes!

Yes! Title: Impression, Sunrise. 1872. It may have helped inspire the name of the Impressionist movement.

Also it was stolen and recovered in the 1980s (iirc). It’s in France, I’ve never seen it “live.”

When someone says their country executes pedophiles and you respond by claiming that they are calling for the execution of Donald Trump, you are revealing that you know Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Thank you for you attention to this matter.

My honey surprised me with roses. I mean, I know it’s Valentines weekend but we don’t make a big deal, and I was so absorbed in work… then there he was with roses.

I want to split them up and have some in each room … but we haven’t unpacked the little vases. I know I have a couple somewhere.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekFforFramed

On my bathroom floor for the moment. A tiny print of an important impressionist painting. In a gold frame. I intend to buy more little gold frames or little frames that I’ll paint gold, and put art and quotes in them, and cover the blue walls with them.

It’s Friday night.

Jigsaw puzzle or read until I fall asleep?

Got a busy Valentines Day with my honey tomorrow.
