Hi all! Wish I could say "Happy New Year" with an actual chance it will be happy for you (& me), but there are bound to be let downs in the next 350 days🤪.

In any event, I promised myself I'd try to find moments of joy in every day.

So far, so good. :) Ha!

I invested in Gander. And you can too. Fun and trusted socials built in Canada. Be the algorithm, not the product.

I invested in Gander! I hope to become a media mogul. :)
Yes, you should be afraid ;)

As much as I like sunny days, (and I do), I much prefer months of stygian darkness that legions of the undead would run from.

Holy guacamole!!!
After going through a sh*t ton of appointmnts 2 get forms filled out again & again, having to wait 4 others to get back 2 me, & being blamed @ wrk 4 the process not going more quickly, I have a new appreciation 4 how much BS docs have 2 go thru, them being human & erring.

That's bonkers. Most pharmacists will, I believe, refill 'scrips without the patient having to make an appointment. Mine will make the refill, then contact the doc directly to confirm. I guess it depends on the type of medication to some extent.

I'll take "Outside for $1,000 Alex." ;)

HARLEYS. Plural words do not require an apostrophe. Are you sure you speak English? ;) (sorry, but not really sorry. 😁)

I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that my answer may incriminate me ;)

Hmm. I don't understand why people like ape hangers. It just looks so uncomfortable to me.

"inhale, exhale" contented sigh. This is much better than looking at the news :)

I don't watch the news anymore because every time I see something like this story, I am filled with loathing and disgust, and would *really* like to set a certain president ON FIRE.

Umm, there's some irony in that statement, isn't there? ;)

Cool! I'm glad to know that! I really enjoyed The Idiot Brain and The Happy Brain, so I will be looking for this new (to me) book :)

My partner was a bicycle fiend. He had a vintage black & white Schwinn, a 1970s Raleigh, and at least 3 other bikes at any give time. He rode a 1964 Lambretta that he rebuilt from scratch. He was pretty handy with a wrench too.

Must say, I (along with everyone else on the MotoGP planet, I suspect) just can not figure it out. Poor Pecco!

And remember to "steer in the direction of the skid." Which is super hard to do when one is freaking out ;)
