Friday Bitch & Brag*
June 6, 2025 - The Charmed Edition: mouthy kids, pedicures & Play-doh fun
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.

And with that…let’s gather round, kiddies!
Bitch: For a few weeks, my hamstrings have been aching and a workout I did last Sunday made it even worse. But why were they aching to begin with? Bad footwear? I have no idea.
Brag: This week my schedule at Wagstaff was light, thanks in large part to the fact that we have less than two weeks until the last day of school.

Bitch: On Wednesday evening I attended a career fair and it was disappointing, as it was mainly local organizations promoting their online listings or virtual job assistance programs. What is the point of job seekers leaving their house if you’re only giving them the same damn thing they’d get on their computer?
Brag: Remember how I said I lost my mustard seed charm? On Etsy I found a vintage charm that looked like the one Momcat had, so I ordered it. The charm arrived with a lovely handwritten note from the seller and it does look just like Momcat’s charm!

Bitch: It is time for me to stop the DIY pedicures and go to a salon. Between struggling to see what I’m doing with OR without glasses, and contorting myself to reach my toenails, I am resigned to the fact that the aging process has, once again, exceeded my expectations.
Brag: Look at the cute solar system I made out of Play-doh this week at school! I had fun trying to make an accurate rendering of Earth.
This week on The Corinne Channel: a BONUS bitch & brag, finally trying a classic sandwich, new season of a spin-off series, and more!
