"What kind of hodgepodge is that?"
What do you mean? You can't see that's a shot of my oodometer?
"Usually you post those mileage photos when you have something special, like a palindrome or a two sets of three or something that would spark the curiosity. That's just a hot mess."
Just take a moment and look at it. It's almost as if the mileage reading had been twisted right there in the middle, so the last three numbers are a mirror image of the first three.
"Well, not quite. 6-3-2 would not be the mirror image of 2-3-9, but I understand that it's late and your brain may not be working on all cylinders. Kinda sorta like the brain of that guy in the movie you just watched."
You mean "Magazine Dreams"? Yeah, that young bodybuilder kept thinking he could make his body look like that of his hero's, not understanding the role of genetics. How terrible it was when he met that hero and found out he was a slime bag! The whole sad story reminded me of the prostitute in "Anora" and her unrealistic expectations.
"Yes, that was a sad one, too, especially as it was soft porn. Hey, didn't I see that 'Magazine Dreams' was made in 2023?"
You did! The young man who stars in it let the story get under his skin and ended up beating up his girlfriend and going to jail. That derailed the movie's release. But here's the cool thing: I found a dime in the nearly deserted parking lot as I was walking in for the movie. Guess what the date is on that coin?
"2023?"
Correct!!! Right place, right time, g'friend! Our S&K Friday Fiesta got out just at 7 PM, so I went right over to AMC. You know, after seeing last week how slow Fridays are out there, I just may go to more post-dinner movies.
"Y'all were done with dinner by 7??? Usually it's more like 7:30."
Right? But Claudia, our usual waitress, is off on vacation visiting her family, so we had Melissa tonight. Get this: she even had the cutlery on the tables and the tables already together when Smitty and Mary got there! She was totally on point!
"I'm glad to hear that! Now, what's that next photo for?"
I'm showing the effect of snowstorm Enzo on my azaleas putting forth blooms now. This one by the driveway only has buds and flowers near the base. My guess is the taller grass held enough heat to save those.
"And this one by the porch?"
In years past, it was so studded with white flowers that the green was almost hidden.
"It's clearly got some spotty blooming going on. The pink one is spotty, too."
This is the best one I have this year. It's one of the two outside my bedroom, on that corner of the house that gets sun from first light until late afternoon. It's clear that the part of the bush closest to the ground is still the part with the most blossoms. Snow bad!!!
"Yes, dear, I hear you. Snow bad! Now time to wrap up her and get some shut-eye."
For sure. Sweet dreams!
