- We celebrated our wedding anniversary Tuesday night by getting takeout from The Vanguard and a shake from Babe’s Ice Cream in Milwaukee. I’m grateful it was a nice night to eat outside on a picnic table! Ahh, COVID-19 dates.
- We have a fall foliage trip planned and I kept thinking “is there a map that shows when certain areas peak?” Yes, yes there is! An article in my Feedly linked to it.
- I got an email from Cinemark (not even sure where we have those around here?!) saying you could rent an entire theater for up to 20 people for $99-$149 total. That’s very enticing! I told Steven if that offer is still around for the next Fast & Furious movie in the spring I am totally doing it.
- Dragonstone was featured on a write-up at work with the rest of the “Cribs” projects! People are still asking me about it and telling me they liked my presentation. That makes me feel good!
Last name redacted to protect my identity since it’s SO HARD to find online, ha
- Things I no longer need to keep in my purse – mints. The mask will cover my bad breath, right?!
- I am on a puzzle roll! Here are my two newest (gah, the one on the top is a bit too hard for me). I’ll do a puzzle exchange if I keep going – I shouldn’t keep buying them, eek.
- We gave up on Eureka and are watching Succession, which Steven has seen before, but I haven’t.
That sounds like a pretty perfect anniversary dinner to me. 🙂
Very cool that your garage is featured in your work’s Cribs. It IS a really neat project, for sure.
Lordy, that top cat puzzle looks challenging. Even the bottom one looks hard enough! Your choice in puzzle subject matter is approved by the four-legged members of your family, I’ll bet.
It was! I miss going to that restaurant.
Thanks!
This individual cats puzzle is KILLING my puzzle flow. I finally have enough together that I can look for legs or a body to snap to a cat’s head but GEESH. Yes! They like them so much they’ve left this one alone!!!
Your anniversary dinner looks delicious! A very Wisconsin-y meal, between the brat and the milkshake…which is kind of funny, since you’re vegan and obviously neither of those things were made with animal products. It’s nice that there are vegan alternatives!
I didn’t know you were watching Eureka!! I watched Eureka for a season or two back when it premiered! Random fact about me: I decided to become a Jordan Hinson fan after she was in the Disney Channel movie Go Figure (she plays Zoe in Eureka), because this was back in the days of fan sites and all of that, and since she hadn’t really done anything major before Go Figure I was like, “This is my chance!! I can be a fan of hers now so when she makes it big I’ll be, like, the go-to source!” So then obviously I had to watch Eureka to keep up my fan status, even though it’s not the type of show I’d typically watch at all. I gave up on it when I went to college, and my fan website died who knows how long ago. Probably also when I went to college. BUT my spam email address is still the email address I set up for that fan site! I, obviously, did not achieve major levels of internet fame by running a fan site for her, but she did send me a couple of autographed headshots, so it wasn’t all for naught, I suppose!
It’s super Wisconsin-y, right? Ha. I love that they have vegan alternatives!
Oh how cute you had a fan site! I remember when those were big! I was super in to Natalie Portman and all the Star Wars fan sites. That;s fun she sent you the signed headshots. And too funny that is still your email addy. Why do you say it;s not your type of show? It isn’t mine either (too cheesy) so we stopped after three episodes.
I’m not really a sci-fi/fantasy person, so, unsurprisingly, a show written for the SyFy channel wasn’t really up my alley, haha. I don’t really like any sort of entertainment that takes place in a world completely unlike the real world, so I’ve never been able to get into Star Wars, LOTR, GoT – that sort of thing. Whereas things that are more “our world + a fantastical element” (like Harry Potter) are more accessible for me and I tend to enjoy more – so Eureka definitely had that going for it! But not enough for me to make the effort to try to keep up after going to college.
Cousin Greg foreverrrrrr!
That Cinemark idea is not bad (although here, I bet it’s more…Wait, do we have a Cinemark?). Wish we could join you for F&F private screen 2021…
Buah ha ha!
I wish you could too! I figured out where the Cinemark is – in Kenosha! It’s called Tinseltown and I thought that was it’s brand. Ha.
Haha – last year, my girlfriends and I planned our trip to Boston at a time when we knew the leaves would be at their peak! I die every time I see what fall ACTUALLY looks like. It’s the prettiest season!
So cool that your garage project was featured in your work’s write-up! It’s such an amazing project, especially you guys taking it on yourself (with help from friends and family, of course)!
Ooh, I love that top cat puzzle but man, it would be complicated! I don’t know if I would have the patience for it.
It is! It’s so awesome you got to do that trip last year! I loved reading those recaps.
Thank you! It makes me feel really good that people at work care about it and ask me about it!
It kind of made me bonkers. I finally finished it last night!
