Ever since I got a TV for my bedroom I keep inviting Toby to come hang out there in the evenings, but he has decided he is perfectly content on the couch. And honestly who could blame him?

I guess I didn't save my 2024 list, but the biggest difference this year between 2021-23 (aside from listening to more classic rock) is I didn't listen to classical music on Spotify because I bought a bunch of CDs to take advantage of the better sound quality after I got my fancy new stereo speakers

And yet I still can't play guitar as well as him. Shouldn't I be absorbing it through osmosis at this point?

Everyone's making fun of her but this exact same thing happened to me when I called Dr. Pepper headquarters to try and schedule a tour of Fansville
(excerpt from Olivia Nuzzi's book where she asks to tour the WWE Hall of Fame): "Then...what is it?" I asked. "It's an idea," she said. An idea. She had mentioned that already. "It doesn't exist?" I asked. "Well, it exists," she said. "Where?" I asked. "As an idea," she said. It was a place only in imagination.

This is journalism
And there's no video footage of the incident because the raccoon, which county officials named "Rocky," came in "through the ceiling" and "took the cameras down with him," county staff said. [highlighted] But the Hanover County Sheriff's Office did respond to the post with a GIF of celebrity Simon Cowell clapping.
