I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I don’t remember those specific yogurt containers, which is weird, because my parents were buying yogurt back in the 70s.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just had a shockingly quick passport renewal process. I did it online, my mother took the picture, I think it was 10 days from submitting to getting it in the mail.

This is good to hear. I need to get someone to take my photo so I can do the online thing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our biggest issue was finding a blank white wall.

I have access to a drop that's on stage right now, but we've struck most of the lighting so shadows may be a challenge.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just had a shockingly quick passport renewal process.

Mine was about ten weeks and there was no name change as I had gotten the last one right when I got married and didn't change my name at divorce for the sake of anonymity.

If you can't take a passport picture easily by yourself, Walgreens is great.

Punishingly Intricate

I had no idea what you meant when you referred to yogurt in a waxed paper cup, but then the picture brought it all back. I definitely remember that!
Same!! And
The boysenberry was the best.

Yes!! Although my mom and I loved peach for our “crepes” on pancakes for dinner night.

I do not recall that kind of yogurt container, but I think back then my mom was still in the hippie making her own yogurt phase.

I am prepping for a colonoscopy tomorrow morning. The sheer amount of liquid I am expected to ingest may be beyond my capabilities.

Our wings are not tired.

Happy birthday wishes to Java Cat today! I hope you are doing fun things today and that the year ahead is filled with joy.

And yes, boysenberry was indeed the best. I remember the cartons well. It was a whole little process.
