He's grown greedier over the years. Before he only wanted my money; now he wants my love as well. Well, he came to the wrong house - and he came twice. I shall see that he does not come a third time.

Thanks for the tag @rebelliouscheeeez

Prompt:

Sneak attack!! send this to your favourite blogs and mutuals and ask them to share one nice thing (big or small) they're looking forward to in the coming week(s)

Response:

I’ve struck lucky with this one. Last week I’d have been flailing desperately.

But tomorrow it’s my birthday, the day after it’s the birthday of my longest friend (so I’m one day older than him and we were born on the same ward) and on Sunday it’s my daughter’s birthday..

Thanks @manofnumbers let’s see…

In a month’s time we’re going on holiday, to Ubud in Bali. This will be our fifth time, because we’re creatures of habit and frankly after the last few months we need it. It will be a week of full White Lotus indulgence, food, massage, lounging by the pool and relaxing. Hopefully it will give us both the reset we need. Can. Not. Wait.

Okay, it is tiny but it’s all I got. On Saturday I am going to a play at a local theater that is different from the theater I volunteer at. They’re doing Steel Magnolias and my friend and her grandson and I are going to see it and support them. Also I’m looking forward to the Montreal Canadiens beating the Buffalo Sabres in this series 🤞🏼

My birthday is in a few weeks so spending all the monies on a fairly fancy weekend in Toronto to catch two Blue Jays games, take business class on the train (food and booze, bay-bee), stay at the Fairmont, and take the friend coming with me who was totally up for a bougie weekend, and is originally from NB so has only been to TO for a concert, or through it, to the aquarium (my fave!) and up the CN Tower (a thing I haven't done in awhile). So it's win-win.

Also, also the Ottawa Charge made it to the PWHL final and I look forward to their series against the Montreal Victoire, starting to-night.

I absolutely need people to stop shading out "bad" or "trigger" words and slang because I'm too old to figure out what the hell you're trying to say now and it makes even less sense even if they were just there.

But also for the other reasons which are that it is really fucking dumb. Tremendously stupid. And the continued infantalization of society. And, and, and...

#if I have to read the made up word unalived one more time...

The audible sigh I let out when I realized halfway through the census that I did not get the long-form one. The disappoint.

We have to start normalizing putting song credits at the end of shows. It's getting out of hand.

I'm tired of desperately trying to google lyrics, it only works half the time and you always have to wade through a lot of nonsense guesses first.

“Who is the internet even for anymore?” is such a valid question. Companies are sanitizing the internet and stifling natural human expression in the name of child safety and being family friendly, but the kids such as fuck aren’t benefitting from this. The internet is becoming too childish for adults and yet still too adult for kids.

HAPPY REX MANNING DAY!

Last week it was Joni Mitchell at the Junos, this week I will only discuss the Artemis II astronauts asking that an unnamed crater on the Moon be named Carroll in honour of Reid Wiseman's late wife and the crying and group hug that act of kindness produced that we all witnessed on the stream. (We're all here, right? Right?!)

Also, the Moon. I'll talk about that.

no i do not want religion to decide whether I get rights or not. reasons: 1) i don't believe in it 2) it's not real

I made an Al Purdy reference/kind of joke at trivia tonight and it reminded me of this vignette/short film that ran on Bravo back when it was an actual arts channel. I've probably posted this before but worth doing again.
