I'm so bored of eating the same things. I think about going to the grocery store, but even surrounded by all those choices, all I can think to make is the same boring stuff.
Nothing appeals to me, so I can't imagine going out to eat. 😠

Starting my great American novel:

It was the stupidest of times. It was the, again to be clear, stupidest of times.

I finished #amreading two #books today.
About 25% into another, which means it's time to start a new #book. 💙📚

Hope you all have a good night filled with wonderful dreams 💭

There's no feeling quite like getting into bed for the first time after putting fresh sheets on.

Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

whyohwhy aren't cheesecake, cookies, ice cream, pizza, and hot chocolate low-cal and nutritious?

Have I mentioned that I find David Bowie pretty sexy in "Labyrinth?"

He can read?
He must be reading a part where Cheryl said he is a faithful and devoted husband.

I'd really like another cup of hot chocolate, but I got weighed at the doctor's.

I love my PCP. He's witty, listens well, and is patient. He's also really good-looking.

How many cups of hot chocolate in one day is too many?

I just saw a post about controversial food opinions, so I thought I'd add one of my own: a dish of buttered noodles is a perfectly fine meal.
