    Anyone want to come to a BBQ? I have burgers and chicken kabobs, a weird salad that should be tasty and a variety of cookies. Seems family drama might have cancelled our plans

    I'm all for free food. And cookies. And canadians. Cuz...you know.... Keanu Reeves
    P.S. And tea on the family drama (cuz I'm nosy and have no life.) 😀
    And Ryan Reynolds... and Will Arnett

    Ryan is a treasure

    I'm a teeny tiny bit perturbed with Ryan. He sold my phone company and now anything could happen!

    Want me to talk to him ...Canadian a Canadian? Although he's a west coaster. My in law issue is a west coaster...perhaps I need to rethink

    5 years ago some guy drive his truck along the sidewalk just north of where I live killing 5 people. It feels like that was a lifetime ago. But I can remember the day perfectly because it was beautiful and I was going to go to thet area to Michael's but decided I needed to get my shoulder checked instead so when this was happening I was crossing the same street a few km away. Thank goodness for my shoulder issue.

    Just reminiscing on this rainy day about my love of my favorite Wisconsinite's ability to take the bull by the horns, no matter how big the bull or his horns..... i find that her hands on approach is unmatched

    Man that must suck big time.
    It hurts me and it’s not even my thing.
    Ugh, 💔🖤

    Are on my mind, for all being nice enough to hijack the selfie thread to make it about my birthday which hasn't even happened yet <3

    I considered playfully putting this in the crushes thread, but it would look like I'm trying to organise some kind of harem. Thank you all for being so sweet!

    I’m trying to brainstorm how I’m going to keep cool this summer at work. Maybe three more sunglasses 😎. But really, what could I actually do about it? I tried the neck fan last year and it was just ok. Only worked if you were already sweaty.

    Birthdays are special. I remember being so special one year I baked my own cake.

    Enough about me...

    I now live in the other New York

    I joined this drawing class because I wanted to learn stuff but last week at class someone suggested we do charcuterie and wine at the next class which is tomorrow and I’m really uncomfortable with unscripted socializing and eating with smudgy fingers. Also I rarely drink & I definitely don’t drink when I have to drive. I might just stay home this week. If I do go I’ll bring a couple of bottles of Pellegrino

    That sounds like fun but if you're not comfortable can you go for the drawing part and leave right after?

    I'm trying to figure out excursions for my birthday cruise. So far all I've booked is Herculaneum which I guess is kinda cool

    It’s not really an after; it’s more of a during. I’ll listen to a couple of motivational podcasts and see if I can make myself go

    I’m fairly introverted so that whole scenario of forced socialization sounds awful, but I’d have the hardest time sharing charcuterie with grimy hands of people I don’t know well. 🥴

    I dislike eating in front of people, particularly strangers. Eating is such an unattractive thing with all the mess and crunching. It'd be a hard pass from me. Or you could take a cab, and a bottle of absinthe, and get utterly plastered so that you don't care about the forced socialising.

    🤣 there is a certain appeal to that idea but…

    Remember how you said you live in the sticks? Well I live so far into the sticks there aren’t any cabs. The class I’m taking is in a city about an hour away from me but I don’t think I could get a taxi to take me all the way home and if I could it would cost a small fortune.

    I have never had absinthe. I would like to try it one day. What’s the difference between absinthe and Pernod?

    Oh wow. an hour? You're even more rural than me. Do you have a rocking chair on your porch with a shotgun next to it?

    Pernod is absinthe's law-abiding, socially acceptable older sister, who fits into polite society. You'll be sociable, witty and your artwork won't suffer.

    Absinthe is pernod's degenerate younger brother, who reguarly wants to crash on your sofa because he drank the rent again, and isn't even *allowed* in an uber after breaking the soiling rules. You'll be unsociable, not as witty as you think, and your artwork will resemble the mess in the uber. On the plus side you won't give a *kitten* and will have a place to stay when you pass out on the art tables and everybody else is too afraid to move you.

    I'm just an amateur sadly. But thanks Twitch! <3


    I feel we need to see more of this dog on here, btw.
