Heh -- Harris is younger than I am. I still have some vim in my health tank, thank goodness. At least with 4 years of veeping under her belt, she has a very good idea of just how stressful the job will be.
Last week I was talking to two of the Front Desk receptionists, who really are the point persons for all resident matters, so I stay on their good sides, as well as they're very nice people! Anyway, somehow age came up, and I was mildly astounded to find out that both of them are within a year of my age -- I'd have given them a good ten years younger. We ended up agreeing that we're all doing quite well, especially because many of our residents aren't all that much older.
I am VERY MUCH enjoying all the talk of how YOUNG she is!
I know!
Just came back from a big first-birthday party for my great-nephew and another baby. Must have been 40-50 people there, and I think I got a bit too much sun. But I have leftover hamburgers to use as training treats, and leftover cupcakes, and leftover salad. So I don't have to make dinner tonight or maybe even lunch tomorrow.
Also Pumpkin Spice Season has landed at the store. There were Pumpkin Spice.. Frosted Flakes maybe? That seems wrong maybe Pumpkin Spice Cheerios. But the Spice Flows
I can't help wondering if anyone in the Republican party realizes that the ultimate childless cat lady is Taylor Swift. Is J.D. Vance going to take on the Swifties? (or, more likely, vice versa)
Hasn't that already happened? Not Vance, but somebody saying Swift was a bad role model because she doesn't have kids. And I have heard that Swift concerts are full of GOTV outreach
Seems early for pumpkin spice, but only by a little.
It’s always too early for pumpkin spice

Dolly Parton is also a childless cat lady.
My therapist is leaving. The good new is someone is going to replace her. I’m trying not to spiral.
I bought a canned pumpkin spice latte from a store the other day, AIWFG!
THE SPICE MUST FLOW, Vortex. Resistance is futile.
Eta I think Teppy likes actual pumpkin rather than pumpkin spice? It could be a "both are good" situation or I could be completely wrong, of course, but that's the bell ringing somewhere in my head

I was going to say "It's July and I am at the beach; that is too early for pumpkin spice,"** but honestly, if someone offered me a piece of pumpkin pie right now, I'd devour it.
**(I only like pumpkin *spice* when it's paired with actual pumpkin. The flavor of the spices on their own are whatever, they're fine, but I really don't walk around craving nutmeg.)
[edit] I was posting this while -t was editing her post, and I am thrilled that -t has got my back!
