Dad let me watch Poltergeist when I was 6 and Mom let me watch The Shining when I was 7. I was also 7 when the Thriller video came out, and I think that scared me more.

To someone with ADHD, this is like telling them to just pull ya’self up by yer bootstraps. 🙃

My motivation

A picture of my grandfather standing next to a woman, taken before he met my grandmother, and she is holding a baby. It didn’t surface until after grandpa’s funeral. It was taken 500 miles away from where my family lives. I live in that other city now. I wonder if I’ve met my half aunt or uncle randomly in passing?

Not even Soundwave was spared? Shit dude. That’s some hard core cold turkey.

I was on the beltway one night in a construction zone. They had jersey walls (concrete barriers) instead of cones and barrels to shift traffic. The SUV in front of me had not been weaving or worrying me at all when it drifted into the jersey wall in the left and just ground along it doing about 70. I expected them to jerk the wheel the other way, but they didn’t. After a few seconds, they drifted back to the center of the lane. Just as I was thinking good on them for not panicking, they slammed back into the jersey wall and rode it until it ended. Their car was scraped all to hell. They had to have fallen asleep (passed out drunk). The grinding noise of car on concrete and flying sparks were too obvious to not be noticed by a conscious driver. I backed way off and fortunately was nearing my exit.

I see this shit far too often. It makes me wonder if they’re aware their gps can get them rerouted without having to risk their or anyone else’s necks.

This was my experience going down the GW Parkway. People frequently had the morning Post unfolded all the way reading it, and others applying eyeliner and mascara.

I start sea turtle patrol in a couple hours! Which is fancy for I walk a section of beach before the sun comes up looking for evidence that a mama turtle has made a nest. If I find one, I call it in, and a biologist & team will come out to survey the nest, possibly relocate it if necessary above the high tide line, and put a cage over it to protect it from coyotes and tourists. But there have only been 3 nests laid so far this season. It’s kind of a slow year. So I’m not expecting to find anything. But i might, which is cool, and the sunrises here are beautiful. Exercise, beach, and sunrise is not a bad way to start the day.

A Lemmon Twist?

Harris Teeter (Kroger subsidiary) -brand “Private Selection” chocolate ganache ice cream. It makes all other chocolate varieties pale in comparison. I let it sit on the counter a little to soften, or I’ll very briefly microwave it if I am impatient. I legit get a nice big eyelid-fluttering dopamine hit with every spoonful.

I used to snack on raw peeled potatoes, but I definitely enjoyed them more if they were cooked/baked/fried/mashed.

I have all these things right now in the house. omg. Yet I’ve already gone to bed and I don’t want the cats thinking they can finagle another midnight snack out of me if I get back up to putter around the kitchen. Dessert for breakfast it shall be!

My honey ordered a cookies&cream milkshake at Fuddruckers once upon a time, and they sadly told him they were out of oreos. We teased them so badly about that, they were shamed into going across the street to the store to buy a bag of oreos. I don’t think we went over the line. I hope. We were trying to be lighthearted about it. and we were very appreciative that they fulfilled our order.

It has to be the mayor’s dogs though.

Hmm, can’t decide between Ænima or Stinkfist

I mean, that is pretty much what i think of when anyone brings up “the brown note”

Chocolate.
