more than a few people lately: Were you talking to me?
me: Oh, nope, just talking to myself.
people brave enough to ask: About what?
This is what I say:
What I still need to get on the school supplies list.
What I’m actually muttering:
Will those jeans we ordered come in time? In the right size and color? It will take a vat of wine to survive another trip to AE.
How is it I never ever ever pick the right checkout line?
“I bring people together” – you can bite my ass you horrible, disgraceful, rude, dismissive, divisive, abusive racist.
Maybe I should have bought the yellow binder.
Did I set up the dog sitter?
Is there enough dog food in the bin?
Gracie’s probably destroying something right now. Dammit.
So if I divide the price by the ounces and compare it then the smaller one is the better deal…weird…
NO, it is NOT socialism you stupid, motherfu –
Of course I respect the office of the president. I cannot respect the man sitting in it.
School shopping. They were freaking Back to School shopping and now there are littles who don’t understand why they haven’t come home.
God, I miss mozzarella sticks.
Seriously, girl, do you not understand the lengths I’ll go to so I don’t have to call someone? I will figure out this online ordering if it kills me.
Riddle from the Middle 
I am surprisingly good at picking the check out aisle. Couldn’t you coat the mozza in gluten free bread crumbs?
Otherwise, your grumbles are mine as well.

I’ve been googling gluten free mozzarella stick recipes because too yummy not to try. I was honestly all in my feels because treating myself in a restaurant used to be so simple but now it seems like most everything’s off limits and I just wanted someone else to *make* the darned things, you know? Lazy, I’ll admit it.

NOBODY EVER chooses the right checkout line. Because Murphy. The rest of your ‘mumbles?” Should be shared ALOUD IMHO. They’re priceless.

Ugh, that’s right. Many were back-to-school shopping. I never had fears while back-to-school shopping with my own kids. I hate what this world has become.

Had to pick up a handful more things today & my son suggested we just run into Walmart. It was a tough mental block for me.

I hear you. I thought about going to either Walmart or the Mall today, my day off, and decided not to for the same reason.

Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. ( and not in the mouth like a certain individual that help George Washington take the airports ) Put one more school item in the cart, real or virtual. Keep a spare wine in the fridge. Keep mumbling to let off steam. Sip wine to forget this noise. The noise has one positive contribution. It improves the quality of the wine sipping part. I hate sipping without a reason.

That is SUCH a good point, I’m definitely appreciating my wine more. This is what I shall thank the GOP for. But I’ll be happy to return to crappy wine days if it means sanity returns to the White House.

Indeed. I caution patience and a good supply of wine whilst we wait.

The workings of the inner mind. I thought you were listening to me muttering when I read this one:
“I bring people together” – you can bite my ass you horrible, disgraceful, rude, dismissive, divisive, abusive racist.”
And this one echoes my life’s goal:
“Seriously girl, do you not understand the lengths I’ll go to so I don’t have to call someone? I will figure out this online ordering if it kills me.”

Nothing brings me more joy than a restaurant who updates their website to support online orders. Yes! 😆
