As we were running low on throws yesterday, we started handing out bottled water because we had an overabundance of that on the float, and people LOVED it. I did some quick math, and for the cost of what we spent on throws, we could have purchased 30,000 bottles of water. (1/2)

I was, in fact, baffled when they kept running this promo during the game last night. Like, is Kevin Costner in it? Is he Joseph? Is he…is he God?
Folks you may have been baffled by the “Kevin Costner presents the first Christmas” ad you just saw on ABC
And I am here to make it worse by sharing with you the official poster for this blessed event

Just out here trying to see if the stray cat we feed and call “Little Miss” is friends with with stray bunny (that I bought hay and treats for today). She never hangs around this much, usually eats and runs.

This Christmas romcom has the incomparable Rita Moreno AND was directed by Melissa Joan Hart?! You’re damn right I’m going to half watch it while cleaning and decorating for the holidays. (2022’s Santa Bootcamp on Netflix)

I’d never watched anime before, but we binged all of Attack on Titan and now I’m sad about some cartoon characters.

The problem with eating Thanksgiving at other people’s houses is that it’s impolite to eat so much that you need to lay down.

I saw a video on TikTok about an Angel Tree-type program for elderly people. I called a few places here and Home Instead has a “Be a Santa to a Senior” program. Call (504) 455-4911 for the Metairie location or any Home Instead (they’re around the US) and they’ll give you a senior’s wishlist.

I should know better than to wander around Sam’s when I haven’t eaten anything all day and have nothing else to do, but I’m now in possession of enough snacking cheese to feed a small army, or get me through the holiday season…maybe.

The Class of 1965 is here today for their 60th reunion, and I appreciate the update from one of the M 65 grads, who now lives in Portland, OR. He talks about his career as a doc, then a winemaker, mentions the family and his hobbies, and concludes with, “Allergic to the alliums, but otherwise okay.”
