Hello, Monday.
I am one of the lucky ones that have today off, and I’m taking full advantage of it. While it’s not all that different from the monotony of a normal day, I’m staying away from my computer as much as possible.
It was a good weekend- my Bills won a big one, my house is clean, my laundry is done and I’m here with my book to get that done today. Oh, and a nice slice of chocolate cake to keep me company.
Like many of us, I’m holding my breath for this week hoping that we come out of it unscathed, mostly, on the other side. May all the forces be with us all to be safe this week and beyond.
Let’s get down to it, shall we? I hope you can put your feet up for a second and give yourself time to sit and read this with your morning bev. Make it your time.
Hmm. Quite the phone call, I’d say. “Hello, it’s the Pope.”
Looking for a friend? Well, you can rent one in Tokyo! Single travelers, fear no more.
God help the stupid men that come up again smart women.
Related: in a crisis, women get shit done. Well…yeah. We knew that.
Do you want to set some goals for yourself but don’t know where to start? This might help: the science of goal setting.
What the pandemic has done for dating. Well, interesting take, but I think I speak for myself and all my single friends…it’s not good.
I thought this was a very interesting take on why what we’re trying to do with this democracy experiment is so hard.
Octopuses (octopi?) are just like us. And apparently can also get high.
Tennis Grand Slam season is…off to a rocky start.
Do you need some happy tears for a change? Here you go.
And in case you need it, this is the best non-flourless chocolate cake out there. Of course, Ina.
Have a good week!
