Bags 1 and 2 #F1 #Williams FW46. Glad to see #Lego using paper bags. I stole the model from my husband because it was Williams and I have been a Williams fan since the ‘90s. Surprised and delighted to find my driver is a woman!

Husband got himself a couple of #Lego #F1 cars and I was forced to take the #Williams off his hands. Just getting started…will check back.

No zoo walk today. Pouring rain beyond the ability if my hat to repel. I wonder if the eagles will notice no one came by to say “hey” and mourn the loss of their soars.

Today was the day to get your Zoo walking club card so John and I hauled our lazy butts to the zoo at 8 am on a Sunday to get one! And we got to see way more animals than I expected—including a wittle bebe Colobus monkey.

I took the MPJE today, had two little mini-bottles of Prosecco (rosé!), and now I am going upstairs to read. Maybe.

There were few winners at last night's shitfest of lies and carny spectacle. But count every last member of the U.S. women's hockey team among them.

In addition to reading old books, I think everyone should try to occasionally read a book in translation.

There is no better way to be reminded that we are more similar than we are different. People are people, in every country, in every language. We have the same big feelings, the same problems.

Oh, Fritts could support the death penalty for women seeking healthcare? Well, I could support a Deathrace 2000 points system to get rid of parasitic old people taking more than their fair share of healthcare. He’s worth 100 points. That’s a good start.
