So much so that I’ve thrown the link into my “things worth saving” email subfolder of all things long COVID. Thanks for taking the time to write it. Are you still feeling okay post reinfection? Hope so 🤞🏻💛
I will always remember going to lunch with my parents a few months before Y2K. My mom did her completely transparent I-am-baiting-you-with-this-question thing: what do you think will happen on Y2K?
I said that I thought with the exception of a few small businesses that might not have prepared or updated their software, etc, not much of anything would happen. She just nodded and didn’t make eye contact.
Not able to stop myself, I asked her what she thought was going to happen. She just sort of mumbled “not much.”
My dad said “Oh yeah, except she thinks everything—water, power—will stop working, food and gas shortages. Just end of the world type stuff.”
My mom got all of her info from Rush Limbaugh and big nut all night talk radio.
I was working at places that were actively trying to avoid any problems. My mom would never acknowledge that I was usually right about this type of thing. (Not that I am still bitter about it.)
Great word! Mine is flourish and my mantra is “build it and they will come”. I see you are leading the way, living proof that this is possible and it will happen😍🙏
I just have to express how utterly elated I am to find someone else who loves Somebody Somewhere. It's one of my all-time favorites but I didn't know anyone else who watched it. You put so perfectly why it's so incredible too. It's so real and genuine that they all feel like real people having real conversations. Some of the best acting I've seen because it doesn't look like acting at all. It's so funny and heartwarming in the perfect balance. I'm super bummed this was the final season, but maybe that'll change since so many things end up coming back or getting picked up by a different platform. Also...I am obsessed with that "pro-life" button.
Aw thanks for the mention! Glad you found it useful :)

The Y2K thing! Your boyfriend!

Thankfully, I was right and she was wrong.
That’s a great story, if only because you were indeed right and we can laugh about that 25 years later having come through it unscathed!

It’s telling that your dad “outed” her Y2K predictions to you after she minimized them.

Oooh, I like flourish too! It’s a snappier version of persist 😊.
My word is releasing!
That goes so perfectly with your name!
Haha I know, right?! I love it 😊

And now I’M elated too!!! (and don’t you feel like this tells you and I pretty much all we need to know about each other’s hearts and minds? 🥰).
I felt the same way when they didn’t renew Life and Beth. Did you ever watch that one? Amy Schumer and Michael Cera?
A non-accredited school for trolls sent me 🤣 My words are connection and balance. x

Great words! I love connection especially 🩶
