Las Vegas being the exception that kind of proves the rule.

I like to put king size blankets on my queen bed so that there is lots of coverage. The linen police haven’t served me a no-knock warrant yet!

Buy a full size flat sheet?

I have a crazy long hallway and found it so hard to get a runner that I love and is long enough. I ended up going with 2. But I wish I had thought of piecing them together and had bought a third one to do so. 2 isn’t enough with the way the pattern repeats, and they don’t quite cover the entire hallway.

So I care. I’m quite impressed that you made your mega-rug a reality!

I have been saving all my leftover yarn for years until I feel like I have enough to crochet a rug with 3 or 4 strands held together. I also am saving worn out fabric like sheets and tshirts to make an eventual rag rug. I just realized over the weekend that one of these types of rugs would work very well in my camper, and I wouldn’t need a large one. I have enough scraps saved that I could make it finally!

I can not wait to be old enough for senior discount days at grocery stores, IHOP, state & national parks. I think that falls somewhere between excited-to-buy-a-rug old and test-driving-walkers old.

I don’t put stock in the paranormal/ supernatural, but I’ve seen every one of those movies, and I know that if you try to get out of the situation, you’ll end up in an even worse Rube Goldberg machine of death.

Do you open shipping boxes on your desk? I’ve gotten things from ppl (Etsy, Ebay) in reused boxes and have had random detritus fall out of them from whatever the sender had been storing in them. So it could be from jewelry, just not your jewelry.

Or at the top of the stairs/ escalator you just came up. There are people behind you with nowhere to go while you decide which way you want to go.

Elvis Presley dancing was considered borderline obscene not that long ago comparatively, so you might end up in the sanitarium if you said “hey, watch me floss!”

Hehe

Is lazy town classified as a cartoon? It’s certainly in fever dream territory, no argument there.

Just a handful, but I usually will add a new one when it hooks me enough that I can’t stop binging it.

The hvac control panel.

The furnace and ac units are both great, but the control panel will sometimes just, idk, dissociate. I can change settings and it displays them, but they don’t “take”. It won’t relay those changes to its bigger brethren. In order to snap it back to reality, I have to go out to the garage and flip the breaker because there’s no other way to power cycle it.

There are spiders in the garage. And they are prolific with their webs, especially where I need to walk to get to the breaker panel.

So when the hvac panel glitches, it’s a whole ordeal to fix it.

My mom and her calico would play tag. It started as peek-a-boo where she hid and the cat stalked her, but then kitty would run off and wanted to be stalked back. When either one was found, you had to go “boo!” with spooky claw fingers.

Yeah, chronically low. Technically just barely within normal, but too low to donate. I’ve got other things going on, and see my doc every 3-6 months (with labwork). I guess it’s just normal enough to not be fiddled with now yet still annoying.

I hear it frequently too and bp is low-normal. I can hear it when my ear is laying on a pillow, and I also hear my ear moving with the pulse against the fabric, not just hearing the pulse on its own. This will be in the middle of the night (i.e. no activity, low resting heartrate). But I can also sometimes hear it when I’m sitting upright. I hear it after doing cardio, which may be normal. The ear wiggling thing against the pillow irritates me tho because it keeps me awake and I prefer side sleeping.

Hm, I guess dealing with parental quirks tilted me the other way. I feel now like I want to be perpetually 20, but I had a chronically depressed single/divorced mom and an alcoholic dad (I’m pretty sure he was self medicating for his undiagnosed ADHD, and have come to terms with all that went on). So yeah, I parented my parents.

That’s such a great idea!
