  • Voting was more convenient when the polling place was a couple blocks away from our house but today I took a long lunch break to walk a mile to go vote; the walk did me good and kept me from looking at the news. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

  • ๐ŸŽฎ Sadly, I was forced to cancel my Analogue 3D order, some unexpected expenses have recently reared their ugly heads:

    • Dryer is on it’s last leg
    • Car issues (both of them)
    • Vet bills
    • The outside faucet needs to be fixed

    For the time being, I’ll just have to limit myself to software emulation. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

  • There is something cute / fun / odd about listening to a podcast and suddenly hearing French when they get to an advertising / commercial break…I guess I forgot to turn off my VPN last night. ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท

  • I haven’t really been happy with my phone Home Screen for a while, so…I’m trying a minimalist approach. ๐Ÿ“ฑ
