I allowed myself to be talked out of a strong "this is a bad idea" instinct and am now regretting it. It's rare and I'll live -- just one of those things where the unseen risk is different for different people.

Dreamt that I borrowed a T-shirt from some guy - and the arms were too tight. My body has some delusions of grandeur?

Gawd I detest talking real estate with people who think every property they lay eyes on is "dated" and "needs a remodel", when in reality they can't tell the difference between particleboard/plastic vs. hardwood/ceramic.

"La Dolce Villa" on Netflix: A total waste of a 1€-Italian-project-house premise. Pity. There are winners and losers in the "An American Abroad" genre; I'd rank this venture on par with "An Embarrassment of Mangoes", and way below "Emily in Paris".

Bourdain endearingly dubbed Sarawak Laksa "the weapons-grade plutonium of breakfasts". In its simplest form (store-bought Sarawak Laksa paste), it still utilizes upwards of 15 components -- yet it costs the same as aglio olio at a local café.

Oz wants biometrics and certified documents in the application to issue a "free" 72-hr layover visa so I guess we won't be exiting the airport in transit. A different world now.

Finished a book at last, had to pause Bryson to make that happen. This went super quick as you'd expect - a novelization of an Agatha Christie script for a play. Plot was classic Christie. The writing... a little lacking. I wonder what currency the sticker price is in?? #booksky

All these years I’ve wrestled with self-doubt and imposter syndrome, and DOGE cured it all in a month. I bet this is where most of their success will ultimately be. Curing people like me.

The Guy just got off the phone with an adorable Kiwi Northlander liveaboard dad, who's got a small boat listed for sale that we're trying to rent. /"There are some Canadians here, maybe you know them"/ 😂

The interview was worth tuning into, and dude said that once they came to a stop and were sorting out and getting off the plane, everyone on the plane was checking in on their neighbor and trying to help😢 humanity is still out there.

Nice to be able to have a machine + optician check-up get most of the way without an ophthalmologist appointment, AND have the cost be either free, or included in the price of new eyeglasses.

I asked The Guy why MIL talked about moving countries if a certain someone won but has never asked him to sponsor her visa. He said moving from the Iron Range to the big city after 15 years was in effect moving countries for her...

Open-faced toasts that go: Sambal / poached egg / rocket, followed by prosciutto / Brie / preserves. Feels fancy yet not requiring full-on cooking.

One of my oldest friends does this Asian (not Asian-American) thing where if they don't know or don't want to, they can't bring themselves to actually say so or "No". They change the subject or ignore it.
