When I go to museums I don't bother to read the placards. I just stand next to couples and eavesdrop as the man explains the piece to his date.

Randomly decided to pop into an antique shop that I've walked past tons of times and the lady working there immediately grabbed me and shared bits of her life story, including a story about the time that Ernest Hemingway touched her boob to settle a bet with Gary Cooper. She was 101(!!) yrs old.

Lotta mom's groups debates going on about how schools should keep kids away from the eclipse. Daycare just told us they'd be keeping kids away from windows on Monday.
Y'all know that the sun is out there every day, right???

New York inmates sue to watch the solar eclipse after prisons ordered locked down
The suit filed in federal court argues the April 8 lockdown violates inmates' constitutional rights to practice their faiths by preventing them from taking part in a religiously significant event.

I love it when recipes say "do not overcook". It's such great advice.

Every time someone tells me that they're going to Portland, Maine I tell them about the cryptozoology museum and they are NEVER interested.
I am glad that I managed to marry someone who finds this as mind-boggling as I do.

I'm in AUS for work and someone called me "Jez" as a shortened version of Jeremy. My first time hearing this and it led to me to this interesting article on nicknames!
Also, as an aside, because of his accent I thought he was calling me "jizz". Not the same.

Sister-in-law picked this year as the year she'd become a football fan and picked the chiefs as one of her two favorite teams (this was pre-Taylor Swift!). So glad that this game gave us a chance to introduce her to the drama of the "fumble out of the end zone" rule!

The year is 2010. We are listening to Love Story in my apartment while my roommate confidently predicts that Taylor Swift's stardom will fade soon, as she "writes songs about her own personal experiences and will run out of material"

Daycare told me that my son is the best in class at cleaning up!
In unrelated news, I was also told that he keeps throwing books into the trash can.

I told this joke several times to several different people when I was a teenager, each time disappointed that my audience didn't appreciate it.
TIL that Dippin' Dots, which bills itself as "the ice cream of the future", was introduced in 1988. That means that whatever future they are referring to, it has not yet arrived. Will the day ever come when Dippin' Dots says "henceforth we will only be known as the ice cream of the present"?
