@emtaywrites The only way it wouldn't count is if your goal was to improve your spelling.

@Dark__Man @BiancaM_author @TDTherrien I don't know, I didn't think this was true, but I get surprised all the time. A lot if crazy things happen. On the other hand, a lot of misinformation is spread, so we have to check.

Imagine if we had the same relationship to food as dogs. We would see something interesting, maybe an old friend and go towards them. Then the person we're with says, 'No, come with me and I'll give you this cupcake.'

Last night my cat was meowing at me to be petted, but I was petting her so I couldn't understand why she was still meowing. Eventually I woke up enough to realize that I was only dreaming about petting her. Obviously that wasn't good enough 😊

@rtslaywood Only in Denmark 😂

@KathleenDePlume @TJDallas7 I always thought it was partly because the holiday was too big, and partly because it breaks up the school semesters/ end of the year? But look it up, all other holidays are non-religious.

[Alta L. Turner @manicfest]

@KathleenDePlume @TJDallas7 Believe it or not, it's because American holidays aren't religious (with x-mas as the exception). Separation of church or state you know. I find it ironic now that I live in a country that is far less religious, and yet every holiday is.

I found a dead hare covered in white bird feathers. It was a lot of feathers not to find a dead bird, so was it attacked by a group of birds? What were they fighting over or about? The writer in me wanted to invent something absurd or write a story from the animal's pov.

@rtslaywood Still make me laugh

@magisternihil Online is not the same as real life. Punctuation is rude and nobody understands a thumbs up. So, it is definitely following each other, since irl it means a mutual friend, and it can't have the same meaning as online 😁

@EmilyFairchild @MorganDaimler My sister died when I was young and I have clear memories of her. Many people have markers they can use to gauge the approximate time. Although you're right that some early memories could be formed from stories about events, so it's difficult to know. We are so malleable.

@clhubes I found that the baby's sleeping rhythm matched closely to mine while pregnant. So it's the baby already being the boss 😂

@ChaoticScoot That's what my English ex used to say 😁

@RefractCreative Midsomer Murders? Because I felt the same watching an episode once 😂

@LeighGeorgiaC It's not really true that gray is American. It was a personal choice back in the 80s. I'm pretty sure that has only evolved. I know how you feel. 😊
