Me: Kinda bummed I didn't even place in that writing contest. I feel like a failure.
Hubby: No, they are.
Me: How do you figure that?
Hubby: Because they obviously failed to pick the best story.

I've been happily married 2+ decades, but I don't get the hoopla of Valentine's Day. It's uber commercialized, & there's so much pressure put on people. My spouse & I don't limit romance to one day a year. If you also aren't into it & would rather do anti-valentine's day, I found this article:
Everything you need to celebrate Anti-Valentine’s Day
Over all the sappy romance of Valentine's Day? This is the best way to celebrate Anti-Valentine's Day.

Took a while for me to figure out that everyone is using "skeet" to mean posting on here. As a Xennial, that word has a whole different meaning to me.

A blue tick? Nah. It should be something you'd see in a blue sky, like, I don't know... Just spit balling here.. how 'bout a bird...it could be a blue one, even. You know... to match the blue sky. Maybe something like 🐦
I think the only way to appease all of those users who joined bsky before it was cool is to grant them a small "verified" sign next to their username. It could be something like a blue tick.

Did some research for my #nanowrimo project today. Thank goodness for the Internet movie car database!!!! Will I ever identify makes & models specifically? Probably not. Will knowing details of each one come in handy? Absolutely!

I LOVE alliteration, which is why my soon-to-be written #NaNoWriMo novel is titled Tangled Tresses & Tantalizing Tastes.

Wisconsin fall: Wow, the temp has dropped down into the 60s. Getting chilly... time to put the tank tops away.

Wisconsin spring: Ooh, the temp has reached the 50s. Getting warm... time to pull the tank tops out.

Who else is doing #NaNoWriMo this year? I've done the craziest thing and gone ahead and outlined my novel 😮 Now to bury myself in research so I don't actually start writing until November gets here.
