sunday randoms

Hey guys! Does this thing still work. More importantly, I guess, does anyone care anymore? Don't get me wrong, this isn't a poor me statement. I don't want you out there saying, look at this asshole, she took a million year break and now she's whinging that no one is reading. Nah, I just mean the bottom really fell out of blogging. Didn't it? Oh, it's just me? Weird.

I guess I could write a few paragraphs about where I have been and why I took the break, but really.... see paragraph one. Nobody cares. Totally not trying to garner up any sympathy, it just truly doesn't much matter. I did it, it's over. I'm back. Maybe. Who knows how long before I get distracted again.

Too be honest I have been super busy getting insta story famous. It's totally happening too. I am pretty popular with the 12-15 age group. That live in my house. It actually started out as a joke with a child person who lives here with me, but I am actually having a lot of fun with them and my partner in crime has been (surprisingly) willing to take part in these stories, so there's that.

Guys, I have totally become addicted to many many new things in the million years since we last spoke. Things like Sweetlegs. I was going to blame Auntie KK for that, but dudes I ain't even sorry about it. They are a dream. And like my dear friend ML says, those are happy pants and really, who doesn't want to put on happy pants?

Also bullet journaling. Oh yeah. Big time. Total game changer. In fact the only reason I am writing this right now is because I put it in my bullet journal.

Also pretty busy watching Comedians in Cars Getting Coffe, The Crown, Bob's Burgers and Stranger Things. I am so behind on all of them. Unlimited Internet is a thing that needs to happen here.

One last also, read a couple of enjoyable books by Jojo Moyes, no not those ones (Me Before You or the other way around, whatever it is), but The Last Letter From Your Lover and The Girl You Left Behind. Can recommend.

What have you cats been up to?

Good to have you back, although I see you so often on Instagram now, it hardly feels like you were away! We haven't been up to much - just life and reading the entire internet. I have also been watching Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. It's kind of weirdly addictive. Aside from the cars (GORGEOUS), I can't figure out why I like it, yet I keep watching. It's just two people chatting. Would I care at all if they weren't famous? Could I make my own web series like this and have people watch it? I am feeling all existential about it.

We're still here at the other side, don't worry. We will read when you post and be glad to keep track on how your family is doing... instastories are so volatile and often banal in my opinion that they cannot compare to any blog. But that's my opinion.


But good to see you are having fun.

update: my opinion on instagram stories is a very general one, not specific on your stories! Just wanted to make that clear

We have a lot of fun with instagram. It's just another layer of connection. And Lynn, I would totally watch that web series. I find watching Comedians in Cars more interesting than a traditional interview a celeb would do to promote a movie for example and two comedians making each other laugh is something pretty great I think. Hanging out with Mike and my brother together is very much like that. They just egg each other on. It's my favourite thing.
