Thursday was a full moon, so that may explain why people have been so testy over the past 48 hours…but me, I’m in a pretty decent mood. I’m in such a good mood, in fact, that I was too busy having fun to finish and post this week’s B&B on Friday. Let’s circle up!

Bitch: The questionable choices of people in Iowa and New Hampshire related to a certain orange-hued individual. Enough said.

Brag: All the snow melted over the last 48 hours and Friday was an unseasonably warm 72 degrees. I spent most of Friday afternoon running errands and feeling in good spirits because the weather was so pleasant.

Bonus Item: Shout out to the guy playing accordion outside the ALDI and singing. I appreciate buskers, as I think it brings a bit of character to any shopping area, and I try to give them a little money when I can.

Bitch: Once again I am dealing with BS with one of my websites related to SSL certificates. I will not bore you with the details. Suffice it to say I really hope I can resolve this issue and not have to deal with it again.

Brag: A couple weeks ago I got the cats a new toy & it continues to entertain them. The SmartyKat Hot Pursuit Electronic Concealed Motion cat toy has a little furry tail attached to a plastic wand and it spins around underneath a vinyl covering at two different speeds. Sometimes they watch the furry thingy spinning around more than they actually attack it, or they “cheat” and lie down on the covering so the thing stops moving. But they enjoy this toy and that’s what matters to me the most.

Bitch: The genocide continues in Gaza, with more than 26,000 dead. I don’t talk much about my feelings about the war, but simply put, I am very frustrated by the United States’s response to what’s happening in Palestine.

Brag:

E. Jean Carroll

being awarded $83.3 million in her lawsuit against TFG had me cheering yesterday afternoon. Her tenacity and fortitude are incredible, and her legal team is one to be reckoned with.
