Got home from this physically and emotionally exhausting trip. I had slipped two bottles of wine I was gifted into the dirty laundry bag. Forgot I had done that 17 hours ago. I tossed the bag onto the porch. Both bottles shattered. Absurdly appropriate ending to the week.

I found several of my sister’s original Strawberry Shortcake dolls, but they had been stored outside and were quite mildewed. So I threw them away. Thus, I have moderately increased the value of all the others out there. If you have any, you’re welcome.

A few months before my daughter was born, friends had a daughter and she was my “practice baby.” After my daughter was born, I got a picture with both of them. We moved a year later. Twelve years later, we visited and recreated the photo. Today, ten years later, we were able to recreate it again.

Three pictures stacked, each showing the same three people about ten years apart.

When I was 10, this ad for a comic called Silverblade showed up in comics I was reading. I was super confused. First, dude looked like Superman to me. Second, it looked like his right arm had been cut off and a sword was sticking out of his shoulder. But who am I to critique Gene Colan?

An ad for a comic from the 80s called Silverblade. A swashbuckling character with a sword is jumping in front of a film strip backdrop.
