Excedrine Migraine is great for minor ones, though it doesn’t fix the nausea if you get that.

I get in that liminal-migraine stage and have finally learned that if I'm even asking the question, it's time to take the medicine.

The first season was better, though by no means great.

I finished watching Nobody Wants This. It was boring.

If I were staying on the western half of the continent, I'd have given the train serious consideration.

I don't want to take 3 weeks for this trip, which I barely want to go on at all, so I shelled out for a fully refundable plane ticket.

Yes. I never actually agreed to write it but apparently we're proceeding as if I did.

Don’t do the Casden one yet; I’m supposed to do one too & haven’t started.

I’m feeling like booking a flight to DC for a conference is 50% pointless. Is this the time to find out how wretched cross-country train travel is? πŸ˜¬πŸ˜‚

I don’t think they were unaware; they just figured it would never happen.

My mind is boggled that anyone thought of this, never mind that they then carried it out. An Auschwitz parade float? For Halloween? What?

I feel that and am also too normcore to do it. Happily there are many decent temporary options on the market now.

The Blue Jays are playing so much better than the Dodgers that I think I may have to switch sides.

In the olden days, you could write a letter to contest a ticket at CSUNβ€”might be worth a try?

Dodgers are getting outplayed tonight. Dodge harder, guys.

I kept hoping Freddie Freeman would save us/put us out of our misery. I don’t know if I can watch again tomorrow. 🫠

Herding Dog is especially irate at his disobedient herd inexplicably watching baseball for the rest of our natural lives.

The people who paid $28k on Stubhub for their Dodgers tickets are getting their money’s worth tonight. I guess.

I’m also on team dog, but I also have the sunk cost fallacy working against me.
