Almost decided not to bother seeing this one in the theatre based on the response it was getting. Went last night and, yes, all this! Wish I could be more baffled by the reaction to this very funny movie with three women leads.

It is a lot easier to stand on the outside and make snarky comments about how everything is bad than it is to roll up your sleeves and do the actual work required to fix problems. Especially if you pretend those problems are very easy to solve and the issue is everyone but you is stupid.

one thing i love about gene who cuts my hair is i always give him bizarre requests like "hair that looks normal in alabama" or "jackie kennedy but really long" or "laurel canyon roller disco mom" and he nods thoughtfully and deep conditions it and cuts off the split ends exactly the same every time

"the “Tell the Feds” campaign isn’t about feasibility, affordability or reliability, but rather a thinly disguised attempt to enlist ordinary Canadians in Alberta’s unyielding service to the fossil fuel industry."

The first time I've seen this beautiful gray squirrel kitten in my back yard. His tail is bigger than he is, sooo fluffy! Hopefully I'll see more of the little guy.

Being an Aunt is fun. I've just watched 2 nephews play basketball in NB and a niece play hockey in NS. Will watch another nephew play hockey this evening somewhere in the valley. Thank gawd for streaming or I couldn't keep up!

I am doing a bit of a purge today. If anyone were to look at this pile, they'd determine that I had issues. I seem to hoard yarn, books, hair ties, lip balm, and purses. And...I've been completely derailed in this venture because I found some cool yarn and accidentally started knitting. 🧶

A real find at a used bookstore this afternoon. The binding’s a bit dodgy and the covers are falling off, but it’s a genuine 18th-century cookbook. No sushi in it, but lots of puddings, pies, and pickles.

What's your weirdest food combo/ craving that makes other people raise their eyebrows? I like having cottage cheese with dill pickles or olives.

Do people get crankier as they get older or are they just more unwilling to put up with foolishness? I have to keep myself in check all day long. I am the cantankerous old man in the Scooby Doo cartoons.
