I complain about work a lot but my manager said everyone can dip out today at 3 so happy Canada Day, everyone.

Again it might all be a placebo effect but I just went on the elliptical and the treadmill during my lunch, willingly. I even got a little sweaty.

I thought Netherlands were the unstoppable team this year. I didn’t expect a Canada-Morocco matchup!!!!

DATA LOVED LAL SO SO MUCH

Found them and only in the THIRD place I checked. Go me

If I’m so smart where did I put my waterproof ear buds

Downton Abbey had Robert, an incredibly conservative Earl, be okay with his footman/valet/butler Thomas being gay. Not saying it’s impossible but on a show that liked to strain incredulity it was up there

Me to my husband, not all the time but a good chunk of the time, especially if we are on vacation

My vote for upcoming elections will be whoever promises to make online gambling illegal again

Do you think there’s a parallel universe that doesn’t suck that the LHC created and the scientists there are all “oh man what if we were in a parallel universe where that asshole won the US presidency, wouldn’t that suck” and they laugh and laugh and laugh

☹️

Oh he was there! I don’t think for the whole thing, he wasn’t there by the time the parade got to my section

That’s brilliant design

things at the Pride Parade today: They did a very lovely Pulse remembrance with all the names I somehow managed to put myself near the CP24 booth so all of my views and pictures are filtered through those three guys

Past-Me is so smart because what do I want after a day spent in the sun? Slow-cooker beef stew? Absolutely correct I’m so glad there is food waiting for me

I am going to embroider this for my house

Pride weekend leaves local father struggling to accept that his bank is gay www.thebeaverton.com/2018/06/prid...

YES I have extra sunscreen and water and a foldable stool for when I’m waiting for the parade to start and a charge pack and cord and a book and I’m even wearing a good hat

@alexandraknew.bsky.social on our quest for lunch recipes. I got this from the library. “Vegans would know sturdy salads!” I adapt for non-vegan ingredients (I’m using real cheese) and some veg while I assembled this one this morning and pretty solid when I taste-tested.

I…

OMG PATRICIA OMG PURITANS

I gave him some catnip and he’s been in the bag for the last hour

I have no qualms about hiring those mercenaries to defend my duchy from the neighbouring baron. He’s getting too big for his britches and I wish to fell him in one swoop. The new land I will gain will cover the cost. His serfs talk to my serfs and my serfs are happier.

Is that good

Before / After I wanted bleached ends so I could do fun colours in a dip-dye effect Some of the manic panic pink is hanging around and the hair dresser refused to put any more bleach on so my hair wouldn’t fry

My hairdresser does the crispest, neatest foils

It begins

For all our technology, Google Maps still doesn’t have a “left turns ONLY at lighted/controlled intersections” option.

It’s the Pride parade this weekend so my nails are gonna be the rainbow

Okay Widow’s Bay is fun when you try to see which horror trope they are having fun with this episode and how soon I can spot it

I’m gonna walk into the sea

Wilbur found my husband’s robe in the bed and I guess went full kitten???? Making biscuits and suckling?

One of my nephews graduated elementary and will be going to high school in September and I don’t like it

Tomorrow is my Annual Hair Cut and I get the same thing every time because bangs are a sensory nightmare and I need my hair to be long enough that I can put it in a pony off my face so that severely limits my options. Doesn’t matter how much I want curtain bangs like Sabrina Carpenter. I cannot.

Past-me shot present-me in the foot when I said “oh I’ll just go to the library tomorrow” well guess what it’s raining and I can’t put it off so now I have to walk in the rain

It might be a placebo, it might be all the iced (decaf) coffee I’ve been drinking, but I’m feeling more energetic during the day? I don’t immediately die after work?

Okay

That’s why I prefer a jewel heist scenario. No one gets hurt, I get to keep some the fabulous jewels as a gift from the dowager. “I’ll finally write my good-for-nothing nephew out of the Will. How could he steal the family parure?” She’ll say “in fact, you should keep it bc you know a parure is”

There’s a game on tonight so my husband is working late and apparently I still have to make dinner? Nonsense.

Me in 1768: I dislike the new Prime Minister and the Steam Machine is still too expensive. Me in 2026: I dislike the new Prime Minister and the Steam Machine is still too expensive.

My BIL got his green card and the plan is for them to come up in October :/

I’m a sucker for these and I don’t care

Very localized but if you are ever east of Toronto on the 401 this will call to you like a beacon

😹 come on now who is writing this season

Wilbur BilBur BillyBurr Whil-Behr (French accent) Schmillburr

As reward I got my myself a pair of absolutely ADORABLE sandals These and short shorts and a flowy white top and gold hoops and a scarf
