'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

You know why I don't want all-year DST (or ST)? Because the clever little DST button on my radio-alarm clock that I press twice a year will be rendered purposeless.

As I usually do twice a year, I reflect that the DST button is either the most clever or most stupid thing ever.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I replaced my bedside alarm clock with an Echo Spot and now all the clocks in the house except for the stove and microwave are smart enough to reset themselves.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I spent quite some time today helping my parents set both the clocks in Mom's new Prius Prime. We did figure it out eventually, the question is how much will we remember when it's time to Fall Back.

So, how acceptable would it be to wear garters at my knees to keep pants that are too long from dragging on the ground?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I really want an Alexa device. I don't know why.

-t, just staple the hem up. That's what I do. Hashtag classy

Garters seem even easier than that, although this is purely theoretical thus far.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

On the outside? I am confused by the garters.

Speaking of garters, has anyone watched Babylon Berlin? I am longing to read discussion about it but can't find any. The costumes are perfect, and they have the best undereye circles this side of Riverdale.

hip deep in pie

I binged it all in one weekend Sophia. Such a convoluted plot, but so good.

I just binged in a weekend, too. That was a lot of subtitles! I just could not stop watching.

Yes, on the outside. Like old-timey bartenders sleeves but legs instead of arms.

Off to google Babylon Berlin.
