We went to a 9:00 AM birthday party for a 2-year-old. Who handled the early wake up call worst?

There's a chain restaurant -- BJs -- and one time, quite a while back, they got my order wrong. And somehow, I've turned that very short story into a whole blog post.

I got to watch the Season 2 finale of Severance with an innie. Or at least a person who had no knowledge of the show at all. It was enjoyable.

There's an art shop in my neighborhood. Look at these cute little paintings, each with the name of a different neighborhood in the area.
