Happy National Cheesesteak Day. I haven’t had a real cheesesteak since before The Dark Times. Cheesesteaks are more than the sum of their ingredients. They have to come from Phila. #food

Why are there no doughnuts?

Happy Cuddly Kitten Day

Oh no! Hide! The sun is outside!

I just went out on the deck. Oreo, one of the Gathering backed off to the steps. #cat

Surely, this must be spring. Don’t call me Shirley.

Never have I ever played never have I ever. I’m never drunk enough. There is no such thing as fun-drunk. #life

Raise your stakes. Breed cows.

I’m waiting for an “intelligent” chess board to show up. I feel the need to get back into the game. #chess
