Stricken by an 11 PM craving for Arby’s Loaded Potato Bites (the sour cream ranch dipping sauce is non-negotiable)… which I last had, in, uh, 2007?

We watched The Morning Show last week and Ted Lasso the week before that, so now nothing compares.

Overheard my neighbor exclaim “Ooh la la! Fresh towels!” And yeah. Same energy.

Please don’t hate me, but... despite treasuring the characters, I find WandaVision PAINFULLY tedious.

Who are the hosts of the #jccic broadcast!? I *wish* I could riff so eloquently. Their voices are beeyooteeful and I’m loving the bonus art and history lessons.

But if the universe wills it, the universe wills it 🤷‍♀️
