I would argue that the day after Thanksgiving plate of hand-picked, reheated leftovers is one life’s best plates of food.

92 million dollars. For one person. For sports. From a tax payer funded learning institution. We’ve lost the narrative. I’m still a fan but that seems so backwards and wrong. 😑

I can hear the massive throngs of starlings and crows out feasting in the freshly-harvested corn and bean fields from my back deck. I can also hear more (and larger) vehicular traffic than ever before—and more and more frequent sirens. Time marches on.

Kidman and Urban will be just fine whatever happens. We don’t need to spend hours of social media hand-wringing over the minutiae of the lives of multi-millionaires.
Moving on…

For those who care, I got a flu shot this morning at CVS. My pharmacist said he thinks they will have COVID vaccines within two weeks & suggested that I come back in immediately to get mine. CVS is good about messaging when they are available. May the odds be ever in our favor.

I get it now. Forget worrying about what you look like and get in the pool and swim with the kids. Have fun. Live. Play.

Honestly, I can’t believe he didn’t give *himself* a Kennedy Center Honor. Or all of them.

I’m a much nicer person all week long when I have the time and space for Sunday breakfast. This one with freshly-squeezed orange juice! 🍊

Some people are like school in summer: no class. Believe them when they tell or show you the first time — and don’t wait for the WSJ to confirm it for you.

I can’t keep track of what’s ridiculous conspiracy and what’s just dismal reality any longer.

It’s stifling hot outside today. The kind of sweltering heat that a fiction novelist uses to set the scene for the upcoming long journey.
Must be time for the Johnson County Fair.

These are not serious people.

Up one after that half? Absolutely, Yes’Cers.

Oh, no. Tyrese. ❤️‍🩹 Hang in there, kiddo.

Come on, Pacers, let’s get one for WINdy! #Yes’Cers🏀

I see the Pacers have found some onions!

It’s that time of year: homegrown tomatoes all day, every day! Bonus: fresh eggs for the total breakfast plate win.

Saw “The Life of Chuck” this afternoon and highly recommend it. It’s quiet. It’s timely. It’s life-affirming. It might—hold on to your StarHearts here—be @markhamillofficial.bsky.social ‘s best performance ever.

Welp. We’ve always got Game 6.

I will happily eat a dirty flip flop and have this be the worst hot take ever by the end of this game…

Pacers have given their all in this series but I just don’t think we have the onions to best OKC this year.

*squeaky tank* is the new *crickets*

We’re all watching this one, too, correct? #Yesma’amIam🏀

I’m over the pronunciation of the word “important” as “impor ent” as it has now reached TV newscasters.

The live stream of “Goodnight and Good Luck” was spectacular.

Pacers!!! What????!!!!!!!!!!

Pacers. Woof.

After having a pretty major surgery on Friday & spending the next few days (probably more yet to come) on pain meds, I understand why there is a warning about not operating heavy machinery. I feel like I could 🤓 but this message took an hour to type without mistakes or forgetting what I was doing.
