Friday Bitch & Brag
April 18, 2025 - The Good-ish Friday Edition: local explorations, gas prices & taxes
Access to The Corinne Channel is for paid subscribers and features a roundup of what I’ve been consuming over the past week, from eats & drinks to media. It’s included at the end of each Friday Bitch and Brag.

Spring break has gone by way too fast, dammit all. I have Monday off, too, but I still want more time. Gather round, folks!
Bitch: Last weekend I found out about a Baltimore Saltbox exhibition at the Pratt Central Library, and since I was already going to be in town for a doctor visit, I went to check out the exhibition…only to discover it was taken down early for unclear reasons.
Brag: I enjoyed wandering around the Central Library, and afterward I went across the street and visited the Baltimore Basilica for the first time. Mass was about to start, so I didn’t get to explore the main sanctuary for very long. I lit a candle for Momcat before heading to the crypt to look around. No bodies or bones down there, but still dark and kinda creepy.

Bitch: My Galaxy Fit smartwatch stopped connecting to my phone for unknown reasons and I had to factory reset it earlier today, which meant a re-do of all my personal settings & preferences.
Brag: Tanya & I met up on Wednesday in Ellicott City for tea and conversation, and I spent time afterwards along Main Street, checking out the shops. This historic city has dealt with major flooding several times over & hopefully a new project will ensure it never happens again.

Bitch: Why does the Royal Farms sign never seem to match the gas pump prices? When I use my RoFo Rewards chicken card (no, really, their rewards debit card has their famous fried chicken pictured on the front) to buy gas, I’m supposed to get 10 cents off per gallon, but the sign shows a lower price than what’s displayed on the pump. I do not like this new math at all.
Brag: I got my taxes filed on Monday night and I didn’t need an extension! I’m due for a refund, too, which hasn’t happened in ages.
This week on The Corinne Channel: a BONUS bitch & brag, good spring break eatin’, compelling fiction, shows with great leading actors, and more!
