I know the meme, but I can't connect how ramen equals May.

Punishingly Intricate
So on Tumblr, it seems the Young People don't understand posts that say something like, "We're in the the second April of covid, but next week..." and then a picture of dry ramen. For NSYNC-era Justin Timberlake, for "It's gonna be May." I can't decide if the elders are letting down the next generation, or if JT should be forgotten!
This older elder doesn't understand either.
My company is letting us decide if we want to come back to the office full ym time, part time, or stay fully remote. I used to enjoy my once or twice a week train commute and seeing people but there's no real reason I can't be fully remote. (Also we are being subsumed into our parent company and loads of people are leaving. I'm starting to look plus am not 100% sure I'll have a job come September.)

I am starting to think about getting a job, now that 1) I'm vaccinated 2) Casper is doing much better and will graduate in a month! 3) school is over in a month and the kids will be more flexible to pick up slack around the house and helping to care for the puppy.
The first step is to try to feel more like a functioning human being and less like a feral world-hating curmudgeon, so I'm working on that. Starting with return to proper exercise.

I've been on tumblr for far too long, and I'm afraid I don't get the ramen thing, either. I get none pizza left beef and citrus, so maybe it's just a meme that passed me by?
I have my first regular doctor's appointment in a few years today. Here's hoping nothing unexpected arises. Fat, asthmatic, and aging? Sure. Hmmmmm, we need to run a few extra tests around that, not so much.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Young JT's hair looked like dry ramen, with the bleach blond and perm and over-gelling. But I'm down with forgetting JT.

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

This is where I am at and I don't wanna, I want to embrace my not so inner at the moment feral world-hating curmudgeon!
