A promising tomato plant yesterday vs this morning. 😭 My Hungarian granny used to shout "mókus!" when squirrels would rattle around in her eaves, and it appears I have now inherited this generational trauma (also why "squirrel" is one of the six Hungarian words I know)

Guess who has two thumbs and is officially a Hungarian citizen
Just working on acquiring citizenship to yet another fascist state 🤪
Washers went up another 50 cents at the laundromat 👎 on the other hand the really good bakery next door to it brought back their insanely delicious seasonal tomato croissant which I will be seeking out on a weekly basis 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Blessed to have friends that critique architectural layouts pre 8am in the group chat 🙏
Bonnie Tyler was so formative for me: sang one of my first go-to karaoke songs, which later became my first karaoke video (which did some numbers on YouTube before it got pulled for copyright infringement lol). It's a heartache, indeed. 💐 weekendleisure.ca/karaoke/tota...

Got some incense scented perfume from the soap making nuns, can I go to heaven if I just smell like I've been religious?
Happy Canada Day! I just arrived in Rome and will sadly be abstaining from hosting my annual bbq wherein I only play Canadian songs, and people respond with delighted cries of "I didn't know this band was Canadian!" or "can you change the music"

Forgot to post What We Did Before Our Moth Days back in April. The entire 3 hour show was 4 people sitting in a row on chairs and delivering monologues, but it was so good. Wallace Shawn is a national treasure. #heylookatthisthingiwentto
Also saw the Balusters in its final week, which was pretty topical and amusing and gave me enough vicarious trauma of being in an HOA that I promise to never buy a house #heylookatthisthingiwentto
Caught the 2nd part of Henry VI at The Public a couple weeks ago, cause my friend's in it! (And, spoiler, he becomes king by the end.) Needed to bring a Shakespeare nerd along to explain what was happening lol but the costume design by threeASFOUR was soooooo good 😚👌 #heylookatthisthingiwentto
