Stupid human tricks

Food service manager helping newish employee ring up my order…

“and she gets a senior discount”

WHAT?????

That has to be the most ridiculous, age-ist thing EVER. What’s age got to do with getting lunch.

No. Just. No.

That’s just No.

And it’s not because I am super vain or concealing about my age. It’s because it’s just wrong.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving

Grateful to the gnomes who apparently were trying to help me out by putting the veggie peeler into the colander that I use to rinse/drain veggies in the sink… Phew.

Meanwhile, in the geek dept.

Naomi and I went to see the Dr. Who 50th anniversary show on the big screen in Colonie Center. The man we were clambering over dropped something, I used the flashlight feature of my phone to help find it and managed to take this photo of the screen somewhat accidentally. There was Whovian trivia before the feature started. I gave it all a big thumbs up.

Thanksgiving Traditions

I have only a few personal holiday traditions and this is among them.

Before

After

I had to wait a few minutes this year to let a columbia county snowplow turn around. He had really bright headlights and I just didn’t want all that visibility!

And gnomes, please return my vegetable peeler. No questions asked. Thank you.
