1.) Monkeypox? Really? I guess the CDC isn't paying any sort of marketing expert to dream up better Plague Names. If I'm gonna drop from this new disease, I think it should have a SERIOUS name. SNL will have a field day.
2.) It has been stated by Other Experts that we no longer have to put 2 spaces after a period when typing sentences. (See that? Looks weird now, right?) I had a real battle with myself about this a few years ago; Miss Eldred, my typing teacher of old, had insisted on 2 spaces. But now...we're evidently FREE of all that? What the...? I think this is just 1 more symbol of the downfall of civilization, right up there with pineapple pizza, intermittent fasting, and decaf. Next, everyone will forget how to use a semicolon. Wait....;!
3.) How do you really spell spyriah? Spirea, not sharia or syariah or psoriasis...it's those white flowering bushes. I can pronounce it, I can marvel at it in its present state, I just never know how to spell it. Anyway, that along with lilacs are my BIG BLOOMS right now until the next hail/locusts/Auntie Em windstorm comes along to "rain on my parade". Anyway, a gardener (or speller) I ain't.
This one. This is the one I can't spell.
4.) I've never owned a dishwasher. Is that surprising? Unless you count my children. I let the dishes hang out in my sink til 5pm or so and then personally tackle them, mano a disho. Which all leads me to consider the "Kitchen Sink" edition of 2OTA we have waiting for us this Sunday.
Songs about starting, beginnings, endings (some happy, some sad). Birthdays (Bea and Rene). Lusty Months. Macks, Mabels, and Mama Mortons. Plus Flora (and Fauna?), a couple of Buddies, Nice-ities, and Tommy on a Seesaw.
Tommy OFF that Seesaw.
Confused? Moi, too. But I promise you a happy ending. And not one monkey or double spaces. Just lots of dishes in the Broadway Kitchen Sink. :)
