Frrrrrrrrrrrrrr y a d i r f! Why is it that anytime and every time someone and everyone points to their tooth and says, “You have something..” we go for the wrong tooth. And that person, without fail, says, “Other side.” EVERY TIME. What is it about humans that cannot get this right? “Wrong side. […]
FRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrr. I have a sourdough starter! My friend Anna gave me a sourdough starter. And now I get WHAT the heck it is. It’s a bubble sludge. A pre-dough bubble sludge. Not quite dough, not quite loogie. Somewhere in between. And today I have to “feed” it, you guys. I think I might just give […]
Fridaaaaaayyyyaaaaaah! (<–see I can keep it mild.) Can we just talk about the bedpan situation around the grandparents’ bed in Willy Wonka real quick? I know it’s been at the top of your to-dissect list. First of all, four elderly grandparents. In a full-size bed. Together. CONSTANTLY. And apparently none of them can walk? At […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRRlotdaysomefri! Or something like that. I finally made a reel! (I felt your collective groan.) Technically, I made two reels. One that is just horrible, and one slightly more tolerable. But they’re fun! You guys I have resisted for SO LONG. This grumpy grandma did not want to get with the times. Well, in a […]
Frrrrrrrrremdemlempemday! WATER BEDS. Do you remember water beds?! And more crucial than that, did you have a water bed? We totally did. Of course we did. What HAPPENED was, my parents’ best friends in the ’80s had a water bed, so we’d go over to their house and play constantly with their small kids on […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrreh! TAYLORDLE? TAY LOR DLE. You’ve seen, right? You’ve heard, right? Tay has her own Wordle game! Five letter words, all related to Swift language. I discovered this yesterday and have only played once. Scratch that, I just pulled it up. I’m on clue two. Is it a SONG? I need a hint. Never mind […]
FFFFFFFFFFFFFare you ever worried how that’s going to end? You know what makes me crazy? You’re like, “right out of the gate, huh?“ YES. Right out of the gate, Chachi. Because I feel like there needs to be a small (tiny!) change to the way Weather.com reports their forecasts. This is what bugs me: let’s […]
FRRRRRRRRah dah! You want to know what made me equal parts guffaw and cringe last week? So these blog posts get emailed out to you subscribers, right? Each time I click “publish” -boom, it goes out to you. So last week in Friday Flotsam we were talking about our first concerts, which BY THE WAY […]
FRRRRRRRRRRR RRR rrrrrr rRrrrrRRRrrrrrr er der. Tell me, what was your VERY FIRST CONCERT? And how old were you? I can guarantee, you’re already substantially cooler than I am. I ask because we just bought tickets to see “Weird Al” Yankovic later this year and I’m going to explode. My 12-year old self is giddy, […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIDDDDEEEEEEEE Flotsam is back! (I’ve said that a lot this week.) Do you ever have that moment when you completely forget what to do with your hands? Or your fingers? It’s more like, your HANDS forget what to do. Like the way you hold something or open something or apply something? And your hands go […]
