This postcard came from a postcard pack that Shawn bought from LiarTown, a site in which I also now want to purchase postcards from. They have a funny Portland, Oregon, series, like this one called the Emerald Village.
Sara reports she is having a bit of a catch-up day.
When I am in the office, I sit next to the lost and found. Today I noticed that someone had lost a sticker.
It is, of course, Alfredo Linguini and Remy the rat, stars of Ratatouille and Carmy Berzatto and the bear, stars of the Bear, the series that has most of the country saying, “Yes, chef!”
I like that the year is listed on this tiny poster/large postcard. Often they are not, and I get annoyed because why wouldn’t people want to know in what year the concert took place?
Sara got to see the Indigo Girls at this concert with Shawn and her sister Jess. However, as you can see from the postmark on the wrong side, she sent it to me after she got home to Arcata. She reports that the Indigo Girls did “Galileo” as one of their last songs. It seems like an apt closing song.
Wandering around downtown St. Johns while waiting for my movie to start, I came across this flyer:
What a fun activity! If only I had known about it earlier.
I wandered by, and it looked like a pretty good turnout for the cakeluck.
While I’m three weeks away from being officially 50 years old, the AARP doesn’t want me to forget about their grand organization I will soon qualify to join.
As with all things that mark the passing of time (that aren’t my body breaking down) I enjoy the milestones. And while I think 50 is a little early to join the retired persons association (especially since full retirement isn’t until age 67 for my age cohort) I look forward to their mailers.
Matt channeled his worried energy re: the 2024 presidential election into writing letters for Vote Forward encouraging people in Georgia to vote.
He wrote 300 letters, for which he had to get extra permission. 200 is the letter-writing max.
This is not the first year Matt has done this. He wrote letters last fall, and for previous elections. Here is 2022, for comparison.
