I think the new Times Square statue is beautiful and poignant. She symbolizes a time in US history when the country could use a little grounding influence. That is all.

Right, right. I remember now. Don't feed the trolls.

I guess I should have ordered the large?

I'll admit it. Despite myself I'm very attracted to the little Bluetooth speaker that looks like a Marshall guitar amp.

I don't know why I keep adding friend suggestions on SnapChat. I don't understand it, I'm not incentivized to post to it and I have an account only to pretend I'm a responsible parent and follow my daughter.

Barenaked Ladies: "New dates added at Red Rocks!"

Got a vaccine on a Friday. I don't know what I was thinking. Now I'm suffering on a beautiful Saturday. Should have waited until Monday.

Voted. Advance poles are open until 9pm. Grab your card or even just a license and drop by your local advance station. Took me 5-10 minutes.
