I’m at a Broadway show and two people sat down in front of me with the tall guy right in my line of sight. I asked them if they would switch places and now I can see!

The oil change place wanted a lot of money for three new wiper blades and a cabin air filter. Only one wiper blade really needed to be replaced and thanks to YouTube University I was able to replace the cabin air filter in three minutes (I set a timer). It took me longer to clear all the junk out of my glove compartment than to swap out the filter that’s in a secret compartment behind the glove compartment.
Considering at eighteen I knew how to put gas in the car and maybe how to check the tire pressure, I’m pretty proud.

A button inexplicably broke in half on the Boy’s flannel-lined chinos. I have never seen a button do that. But I had an appropriate replacement in my extensive button collection and sewed it back on.
Interestingly the tutorial at The Art of Manliness was much more involved than the one from Good Housekeeping. (I mean, yes, I know how to sew on a button but I wanted to the do the fancy thing where you use a spacer and make a shank or whatever.)

I’ve been trying not to finish my book because I don’t have the sequel and I’m not ready to switch away from this story.
The library just emailed that the next book in the series is available.
I win!

I got tired of listening to my male coworker drone on for 45 min- he highjacked my meeting for 30 min, with no value add, then when we moved on to our team manager meeting he apologized then started to explain to our boss what I did. I finally interrupted him and said, “Z will you actually let me speak?!”. The other manager completely broke out on camera, he was muted. Z put himself on mute until he was allowed to contribute. It is just exhausting listening to the drone.
Sweet guy, he just does not know when to shut up.
My boss reached out after and asked me if I was ok and told her I’m fine.

Biden did a bunch of pardons this morning in expectation that Trump would go after people. He also apparently did some commutations which I hadn’t seen.
ETA Dr Fauci was one.

This twitter browser extension is changing my life. I wish I’d known about it 2 years ago. It blocks all the garbage - trending topics, the algorithm home page, the AI suggestions. Leaves just the accounts you’re following with no distractions. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/control-panel-for-twitter/kpmjjdhbcfebfjgdnpjagcndoelnidfj?pli=1
(I totally understand people choosing to leave the platform. I personally don’t want to let Musk take away something that I’ve enjoyed for 15 years, and I also don’t love that the mass exodus has intensified the conservative echo chamber.)
