The library here only has books 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 of the series I’m currently rereading as ebooks, and only has 4 as a physical book which I have to Go Get, argh.

Secondary TC, the library in general isn’t as good as Chicago’s.

TV: for stuff they DO have, when I put it on hold I get it way more quickly than I did in Chicago. Less competition I guess?

I would absolutely make shrimp and artichoke pizza. Thin, crispy crust (so not TJs crust), brushed with olive oil, chopped shrimp and artichoke hearts, maybe some Kalamatas too, lightly topped with cheese (I feel like chunks of gorgonzola would be nice?) and sprinkled with Maldon salt to finish.

I also really like the fact that Trader Joe’s cashiers are chatty. I LOVE chatting with the TJs folks, I have People there now who recognize me and I recognize them lol.

It is possible that I am not to be trusted.

Artichoke & prawn pizza is definitely something I’d expect to see in a pizza shop here.

I know tomorrow is going to be busy and probably over simulating so I was looking forward to getting some quiet time this evening. Obviously the child and puppy intuited this and have both been needy as fuck for me specifically.

Sept 3 - first letter arrived, I have forgotten when the first letter was dated, but it was mid Aug.
Sept 4 I emailed them with stuff and asked them to confirm if it was ok.
Sept 9 the shadowy one called to find out if it was ok and was told probably ok but since we asked, they’d phone back and send us an email confirming.
Sept 11 I followed up with another call and was told it was probably not ok. So then I had a bunch of calls to get the new docs and sent them over.
Sept 13 I received an email saying the Sept 4 note was not acceptable, and another email to say that the Sept 11 was accepted but to made another modification in the future
Sept 14 an email to the shadowy one indicating that the document had been accepted and I’d gotten an email to that effect

Sept 15 - a couriered letter arrived that we needed to sign for, sent yesterday, saying that if we didn’t get the new documents to them by the 15th, they would cancel our service. The letter was dated Sept 1.

Also please note, they have our email address, and they hadn’t sent anything there, so if we were out of town with our mail held for two weeks, we would have been screwed.

Pumpkin spice every damn thing at the grocery store while it’s 105 fucking degrees outside.

A nearby hospital is already playing Christmas music in some staff areas. I can’t even.

An influencer who looks startlingly similar to an ex of mine keeps popping up on my feeds and it wigs me out every time.

I’m choosing to lean into it. I had pumpkin cold brew this morning.
Granted, it’s only like 90 here.

I bought new shoes bc my feet are mad. They seemed okay in the store but after walking around town…
New shoes made my feet more mad.

Hopefully I can return them :crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers:
