I definitely sighed over Chris O'Donnell's curls.
And to this day, I acknowledge someone "a fool" for doing the thing only a fool would do.
Now I also know a red is best paired with a carriage chase.

Among the least addressed Facebook perils are posts in groups with which I have no affiliation that rise unbidden in my timeline.
Box turtle husbandry, sketchy tessellation, potato chip jigsaw.
This knowledge is forbidden; it is not for me to know.
Yet, it *could* be mine, whispers my mind.

The character's first name is Bluebird, but it's an uncommon name in Australia. "Blue" is the nickname.
Based on what we learned in S2xE5, I do wonder if she chose it herself.

At least, she guesses that's the case.
Blue and Rosie are my faves, and I particularly enjoy when they have scenes together.

Well, now I have the Z-O-M-B-I-E-S soundtrack stuck in my head.

We're already contestants in Eurovision, so it's just a formality to get us into the EU at this point, isn't it?

Facebook blocked Cyclone Alfred searches and hasn't explained why

On my lunchtime walk in #Adelaide, I noticed the Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors is thoughtfully headquartered directly opposite the TAFESA city campus.
If you're going to have a little breakdown waiting for the bus at exam time, odds are good someone nearby is equipped to help.

Sometimes, when I enjoy an older video on #YouTube, I'll #like random, non-specific comments from 10 years ago or something that are just "I love this!".
That person then gets a notification linking them back to the video that they possibly completely forgot, so they can watch it again and #smile.

Partner and I were in a How It's Made era and got into the habit of suggestively repeating steps in the process. E.g.: "I'll fill YOUR ramekins with batter."
Now it just happens as part of casual conversation. The more off-putting the verb:noun combo the better.
