not tactical like that one!

Ha! I had specific hiking needs, mostly (1) can hold water bottles, (2) can hold phone, and (3) can hold Luna bar and optional sandwich. I suppose I should throw in a small first aid kit, too, or at least some band-aids and kleenex. Maybe also a Swiss army knife.

Hiking and Marching have similar requirements, really.

After my bottle sling made out of upcycled plastic broke, I got myself one made by the Chicobag people so it folds up into itself when not in use. It also has a little pocket for keys or a granola bar or something, so if I want to travel really light, I can.

True fact.

Has Riverdale gotten even more confusing or am I losing my ability to understand TV? I am not picking up what they are laying down, I don't think.

I just did most of my grocery shopping from my desk at work while waiting for a customer's computer to process things. And the groceries will be delivered tomorrow. Truly we live in a golden age.

Riverdale is bonkers at this point I just kind of let it wash over me and admire the pretty.

That seems sensible, Amy. For some reason, Jughead's "no more crime" edict for the Serpents and Archie's bear attack were both harder to swallow than the usual nonsense.

Well done, Connie. That sounds like a merit badge.

Timelies all!

We are in Williamsburg. We are not at the con hotel, because we waited too long to make reservations.

Yeah, this week was weird as hell. I felt like there was a missing episode between the last one and this week. Like, what the hell happened to the town being quarantined? How could something that's that big of a deal just...not even be mentioned?

And the Serpents are the saddest gang ever.
