Sacrifices to water gods on alternate Wednesdays only - NO EXCEPTIONS! Taunt the crows at your own risk. If a hand comes out of the water to beckon you, turn and walk away. Do not feed the weretrout. Is the water burning with cold unholy fire? Report it to the ranger! Theyβre not ducks. Run. Have fun!
You know, I'm not sure I ever really read the Pond Rules at our local nature preserve all that closely before

I don't really put much more stock in Fitbit's assessment of my health than I would put in what's written on the paper inside my fortune cookie! It just made me laugh that it has been judging me for my recent extended rest period. π
Just watched E.T. in its entirety for the first time in 43 years.
Conclusions: it holds up beautifully. John Williams is the GOAT. I'm old since the last time I saw it was on original release in theaters.
(On Netflix till the end of November if you need something for the whole family to watch)
A rude assessment by Fitbit of a person who has been fighting off COVID all week, not working out enough for the Fitbit.
Meanwhile on day 9 of COVID (mild case, fortunately, but lingering) my Fitbit is getting judgy.

Andrew McCarthy retweeted me once over in the bad place. All I need is Molly Ringwald and I've got the whole love triangle! I think she (wisely) avoids social media entirely, tho.
