A chaotic Friday morning + an in-person board meeting this afternoon + a small birthday celebration this evening = a very late and short Friday 5 post. This week’s theme is: Kickoff. Let’s go!
Friday 5: More questions about our favorite topic
Rabbit rabbit! Happy September, which, blah. Even though it continues to be actual, official summer through September 22, I am trying to switch myself into an autumnal mindset. Today is also National Forgiveness Day (I forgive, I do not forget),…
Friday 5: Until it hurts
Happy Friday, and my last official Summer Friday of the season. Booooo! I’m not down the shore because it’s been raining off and on all day both here and there. Instead, WM and I had breakfast at a lovely twee…
Friday 5: Career Day
Happy Friday, friends! Today is National Mail Order Catalog Day (I miss those) and National Fajita Day (I prefer tacos now.) I’ve had a mentally jangly few weeks for no explanation and I finally feel it ebbing. What’s been helping…
Friday 5: For argument’s sake
Happy Friday! Today was my summer Friday and I took Mom to the beach for the day. It was a good day; however, I think I have to find a new beach. I’ve been going to Margate for years and…
Friday 5 for July 28: (abbr.)
Happy .. um, Saturday! It’s also National Lipstick Day, International Tiger Day, and National Chicken Wing Day. My workweek was so busy that I switched my Summer Friday with a coworker so I *could* work yesterday. That gave me the…
Friday 5, Saturday edition: Scattergories Part 13
Hello! I’m back from Virginia Beach, where Mom and I had a great time despite a ton of heat and humidity. Even though I slathered myself in sunscreen and stayed under an umbrella most of the time, I still ended…
Friday 5: Late night dorm talk
Friends, I am TIRED. I am feeling all of my 50 years today plus maybe 10 more. I have been emotionally cranked up about various things over the last month-plus (WM’s surgery, my colonoscopy, two car tows, upcoming Virginia beach…
Friday 5: Midyear examination
Happy Friday, which is also National Dive Bar Day, National Macaroni Day, and WM’s knee surgery day! That went very well and he’s currently snoozing on the sofa. It won’t cure all of his knee-related ills but it will hopefully…
Friday 5: It’s a good time for the great taste
Happy Friday, which is also International Asteroid Day, National Meteor Watch Day (a bit of overlap there, as an asteroid becomes a meteor when it enters the atmosphere), and International Day of Parliamentarism, a good day to say that the…
Friday 5: Themeless
Happy Friday, which is also National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day and National Donald Duck Day! I’m down with Donald Duck, but not so sure about the pie. This week I was in Atlantic City from Monday morning until Wednesday afternoon…
Friday 5: Do you feel a draft?
Happy Friday, which is also National Rotisserie Chicken Day, National Rocky Road Day, and the first of TNP’s alternating “Summer Fridays” off for staff. Mom & I hit the Ocean City boardwalk today and I’m filled with pizza, iced coffee,…
