At Jazz Fest? Maybe it will rain and you will feel better about your life decisions.

STOP IT.

I am so, so sorry for your loss. You will be in my thoughts.

I just checked my bank account. I already got my refund. Sometimes I am impressed by the efficiency of our government.

Happy Earth Day and Happy Administrative Professionals Day! What a weird combination of holidays. Try to remember not to yell at your secretary today. I have an appointment with my registered dietitian and get to miss our staff breakfast 🎉

😂

Blue was a wild guess.

I have thought about that too but I think I want to do different things while I am there. I used to work with a Hilton there and it backed up to a wildlife preserve. It always seemed like such a good place to be outdoors, nature adjacent.

I’m so sorry to hear that, Kevin.

How soon is that? Didn’t you just have to go on a work trip?
I kind of want to visit there. Maybe in the fall one year.

Where are you going?

Oh no. Well, hopefully your work day is over!

You can also get them in packs of 4 from Amazon and save 30% if you subscribe. Monthly delivery? Every 6 weeks?

When WF has a sale, it’s an extra % off for Prime members. If you have Prime, maybe! If you don’t, it might be about the same. They just had a sale sometime before Easter (they cycle through which chocolate is on sale) so I will let you know the next time I see it on sale.

If you are a fan of Tony’s Chocolonely, I will let you know when they go on sale at Whole Foods. I like the tiny Tony’s.

Green was perfect for you but I thought that was a trick.

PURPLE FIRST 💜

I had a U2 Zoo TV tour shirt in nearly perfect condition (never worn but it showed some age). I brought it to Swamp Rags when they first opened. I wasn’t expecting anything and he pulled $70 cash out of the register for it. I kinda wish I’d bought more stuff when it was cheaper and saved it.

omg

It’s New Orleans, there will be other shiny pickle events.

I don’t know what you mean by “chickened out” but you look great!

I’m flying KLM instead of United. Their personal item size is 16 x 12 x 6. The 6 is the hard part — most bags are 8 inches wide or more. I have obsessed over this for days but I just found a Lululemon tote bag that is the exact dimensions. I’ll probably keep looking but I’m glad I found this.

I have become obsessed with airline personal items. Last year, I never bothered to check this and my Luka duffel did not fit under the seat in front of me. United’s personal item size is 17 x 10 x 9. I bought the mini Luka in case I flew United but I am concerned that the straps won’t stay up.

If you want to branch out, some brands sell trial/travel sizes. I have O/S in two colors and Kosas pressed powder (I still apply it with a brush) in minis.

Look at President Obama laughing with children instead of whatever weirdness our current president did at the Easter Egg Roll. I miss this.

Have you tried Waterloo? It’s not cheaper but it might fit the rest of your preferences. Rambler is my favorite but it’s the opposite – the flavor is more subtle and the bubbles are finer.

It’s not. Someone posted the letter on Facebook. It was $260.50. At least it partially pays back the dues they paid in 2020 before everything imploded.

What did you like about them? Better flavor? Less flavor? Smaller bubbles?
