  • ☕️ At the Toyota dealership, getting my current car looked at for its trade-in value…and drinking a cup of coffee for the first time in over a week. 😆 I’m sure I’ll be bouncing off the walls shortly. 🤪

  • I haven’t had to worry about insurance for a couple years now, my current employer had the best plan I’ve ever seen. Found out this week my company is being “merged” with another (aka, we’re being acquired) and our insurance costs are going to sky rocket. 😱😤😭 #Screwed #FirstWorldProblems

  • Ah, nothing like getting the rug pulled out from under you during the Holiday season @ work.

  • 🍿 Decided it wasn’t too early to watch Home Alone, as it’s one of our holiday favorite. The amount of abuse those poor thieves take from Kevin…it’s funny/painful to watch. 🎄
    ★★★☆☆

  • Working from home has advantages and disadvantages…but it’s lovely watching the snow fall without having to worry about driving into work. ☃️❄️😁

  • 🍿 Always a favorite, who doesn’t hope for some sort of miracle during the holiday season, especially after watching Miracle on 34th Street. 🎅🏻🎄
    ★★★☆☆

  • 🍿 It wasn’t our first movie of the Holiday Season (sadly, we watched a bit of a stinker last night) but “While You Were Sleeping” was the perfect palate cleanser and a great movie to watch the night before our first snowfall of the year. ❄️🥶🎄
    ★★★★☆

  • 🍿 Perhaps watching with a bunch of catty queens after a giant Thanksgiving meal with tons of wine wasn’t the best of ideas…but the best part of Hot Frosty was the bloopers at the end. 🍷🦃 I don’t think this is going to enter the “must-watch holiday movies” playlist. 🤣

  • Yes, I’m the kind of person who will call and spend hours on the phone to dispute an improper bill for a doctor visit, no matter how many times your systems “accidentally” hangs up on me. 🤣😮‍💨😤

  • #Flashback-Friday 📷 2024-10-25

    I took a random Friday off from work last month to drive down to my parents' lake house to help them with some heavy chores around their lake house…and this was the view from their dock. 🥺

    A serene lake reflects the autumn trees and sky, with houses lining the forested shoreline.

  • Don’t you just love it when reddit goes down when you’re trying to do research… 🤣

    Error message when browsing Reddit: A connection failure message indicates an upstream connect error or reset before headers.

    Granted, it was only for a minute but it’s still funny to see old-school error messages. 🤭

  • I weep for the future but at the rate we’re going and the decisions we keep making, one wonders if our species deserves to continue existing. 😮‍💨

  • Recently gotten back into music and I’m loving Plexamp. 🎶🎵🎼

  • I truly hate the car buying experience. 😭

  • A bowl of green curry with vegetables and tofu is placed on a table, accompanied by a spoon.

    Met up with some old friends / former coworkers for tasty Thai food and some venting. 😋😮‍💨 📷
