Pulling up to a light that was changing from yellow to red, when a crappy blue hatchback zoomed past me and the car in front of me in the next lane over, through the just-turned-red light. Local cop was first in line at the cross street and pulled out with the lights going. Saw the guy pulled over about a quarter mile down the road. Waved cheerfully.

What do you swear by?

Pilot G2 pens. Not expensive and write well, use them at work and not be too upset if s customer walks off with one.

SAS shoes. Made in Texas, hella comfortable. You can’t buy them online, you have to go to a shoe store and get properly fitted. They also fit the saying about not skimping on things that come between you and the ground.

Now there’s a space between each line. I wonder if being on mobile has something to do with it.

I need to figure out how to put a line return in, without a space between lines, the formatting is gone

Anyone want to read some old, classic poems?

Emily is wondering why she isn't being petted.

I like this. I like the imagery. Being from the Detroit area, it speaks to me.

No experience with Ryanair specifically, but airlines do oversell their flights. That said, if you check in as soon as you are able, right at 24 hours before, you should be ok. The people who run into trouble are the ones who wait to check in until they get to the airport.

Sleep Number mattress. Yes it’s gimmicky and expensive, but the ability to adjust softness/firmness according to how my back feels is priceless

iPad. A long time ago when I was an IT drone the boss dropped a 1st gen on our desks and said, “set it up and figure it out, you’ll be supporting it.” 2 weeks later I told my husband he was off the hook for Christmas, I wanted one of these. It’s been my most used entertainment tech since through multiple generations
