Was going through my books when I noticed my copy of Carter Beats the Devil has braille at the bottom. I've had this copy for 15 years and somehow never noticed it. A quick search shows it says ".she .never .died", and I haven't the faintest clue what, or who, it's referencing!

A baffling mystery, and right under my nose this whole time.

Just got back from watching the Barbie movie with the family. :)

5 minutes from the end, when my preteen son reached over and put his hand on my shoulder and said, "Hey. Thanks, Dad." That moment?

Thanks, Greta. :)

When I was a kid, I 'invented' a phrase that I used. A lot. I had this nebulous idea that it would become associated with me in a good way, and maybe even become somewhat popular. It was my attempt to make "fetch" happen, I guess.
Instead of typing "no sweat" in my AOL Instant Messenger chats, I would type "null persp". I thought I was sooo damn clever.

Guess what never took off, and what I stopped using RIGHT BEFORE anyone pointed out how dumb it was. 🤐

Having a grand time (re)watching Eurovision. :)

My 12 points go to Belgium.
