- I have enjoyed seeing pics of my friends and their travels. I have identified some places I would like to visit in the future! As much as I am interested in your pics, I’m probably only going to look at 12 of the many pics you post. Try as I might, after the 13th or 15th pic, my mind begins to wander. Keep posting, friends! They’ll return in your memories and you’ll be glad you did. I just missed out on that 30th pic of you doing such and such from a different angle.
- Speaking of vacation, do you have someone watching your house when you’re away? As you post each day that you’re gone, it seems like it’s an open invitation to criminals that your house is available to rob. Maybe I’m the only one thinking this. I think my law enforcement husband is rubbing off on me.
- I haven’t listened to Beyoncé’s new album and it’s unlikely that I will. Furthermore, I can’t think of the last album I listened to in its entirety. She’s a great singer and performer; I’ll just listen to it on the radio. I’m sure I’ll hear whatever song a million times.
- After finally watching the Netflix show Stranger Things (it’s good!), ain’t no way (I’m using “ain’t” emphatically) my friends or I could get away with not checking in with our parents. Of course I wasn’t slick enough to say I was at a friend’s house while I was somewhere else so there’s that, too.
- Along those same lines, a recent Facebook post in several of my friends’ timelines about members of Generation X made me think how much it applied to me. Most days after school I came home to an empty house. I didn’t necessarily need to be cajoled into doing my homework. I have trouble using shorthand in text messages. In fact, I learned recently that I don’t have to end a text with a period and quite frankly, that troubles me. I’m also going to continue to type two spaces after a period.
