Really enjoying Ozark, but I'd like to have a chat with whoever arrived on Blue as a theme. It's not just the insane blue filter. Everybody's always wearing blue. Blue walls. Blue upholstery. Blue cars. Blue lights. The Blue Cat. Blue Blue Blue.

I didn't have breakfast or lunch and only ate popcorn for dinner hours ago, so of course now I could eat a fried donkey, as I say in Spanish. I'm gobbling up the serrano ham I had bought for my guests. Oh well. I'll buy more.

Too tired to even mix proper drinks, I'm on a second paloma. Having Circles would be amazing tonight.

The (elderly) cashier asked me if he was seeing the DOB right in my license. Yes, buddy, I too remember when being almost 44 meant super old.

The only movie I have seen at the cinema on the very first day it premiered is Der Untergang, in a now extinct theater that showed foreign language films.
What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes?
1) E.T.
2) Spaceballs
3) Jurassic Park

Fragrance tonight is Tainted Love (vanilla, orchid, white tea, sandalwood) by Tokyomilk Dark, my very first TMD that I've neglect for a few months since I picked up new ones. I know it's not for everyone, but I love it.

I'd like to formally make a retraction. Wtf Wendy! (Just watched the S2 finale)
Wendy Byrde really is something, but Ruth Langmore is something else. What a character and performance.

For anyone who might be wondering about the eggs. It's fairly easy. Very large eggs are trickier, try to stick to medium or under. #FoodSky
No trick, only patience: place medium (small-ish) eggs in boiling water for 6 min (7 if large-ish) take out and put in cool water, peel carefully, put in a jar and cover with soy sauce half way, mirin a quarter of the way more, then water until submerged. Leave 8 to 48 h in that salty brine.

“Americans are uniquely bad and were never cool” is, ironically, just about the most provincially American opinion it is possible to have

this is profoundly accurate. quite frankly, saying stuff like this is one of the most accurate tells for “I am a person who has had exceedingly limited to zero experience outside of the U.S..”

Mindlessly "window" shopping my evening away and one thing I like about T & S is that they do feature a good variety of bodies, for real, unlike other sites. The tall, the short, the thin, the medium built, the big bellies, the small tits, the chunky arms, all. #UselessReflections

I hate February so much, you can't imagine. I'm doing best to keep my mind occupied. Dinner & show last week, weekend guests & hosting this week, lists of groceries & drinks I need to get, doing tax prep, business appts, agreed to go up north to look after friends' dogs at the end of the month...

This sounds delightful and I just submitted a good request to my library 👀 #BookSky
One of my missions in life is to encourage people to read Frans Bengtsson’s “The Long Ships,” a very dryly funny 1940s Swedish adventure novel about Vikings who wind up enslaved in Muslim Spain and then searching for treasure in the Black Sea. Don’t take it from me, take it from Michael Chabon:
The Long Ships by Michael Chabon
June 28, 2010 – Unearthing a Viking treasure. In my career as a reader I have encountered only three people who knew The Long Ships, and all of them, like me, loved it
