@__shiticantsay Love, love, love it!

@beckysowsseeds Hey, I thought we agreed not to read the other person’s diary out loud anymore . . . OR, put another way: #relatable. (Sorry for the “Dad” jokes)

@niwroffyc #word How quickly I forget that nearly every time. Whether it’s walking down to the gym, or taking the adorable cockapoo for a jaunt, or yes, just weeding/cutting/raking, there always seems to be what I’d describe as a stabilizing boost. Subtle, but noticeable.

@__shiticantsay Our daughters used to love the VHS tape of that movie (am I dating myself?). They are now 25 & 27.

@__shiticantsay Y.M.C.A. by The Village People, it is a song from the late 1970’s that celebrates same-sex cruising and hooking up in NYC, so it’s very appropriate that Donald Trump insists on playing it at his rallies (because when you think LGBTQ-friendly, you think MAGA, obvs).

@niwroffyc There is a street nearby in Toronto named Arundel. I had no idea what it was named after.

@toys_retro @niwroffyc We had those when I was a kid in the 1960s. I think that was the first time around.
