  1. I have bags…I just forgot to bring them. Also as they are big, they usually pack them so heavy I have trouble carrying them into the house. 
    Tip: I found that the cardboard box a case of cat food comes in (like Fancy Feast brand) fits perfectly in the bottom of most reusable bags. They help to stabilize the contents, keep the bottom from bulging, and the bags last longer.

  2. I came up with amethyst, bumblebee, eyewitness, kept saying Eat, Pray Love so I knew they wanted Gilbert’s name, but I couldn’t pull it up, and Outlander. I ran birthstones, cat in songs, and the bug category. I did see Fantasia in college which is why I probably didn’t get FJ 😉

    Another buyer of DVDs chiming in.  I've ranted here once or twice (or maybe even thrice) about how much more difficult, not to mention expensive, it's getting to purchase TV shows on DVD.  I've still been pretty lucky with movies - I usually am buying older titles - but even those are getting harder and harder to track down.

    I find so many in resale, vintage or charity shops. Usually for $1-2.

    Right now (5 pm EDT, Thursday) Bravo is airing the Below Deck episode featuring Alexis and What’s-His-Name. This was filmed just after she lost her religion, apparently.

    lol…I’m watching that too. The poor deck crew is so over all her PDA with the new boyfriend (who didn’t last).

  5. I just went shopping for the first time in two weeks. I needed a lot of staples. My peeve is that I ask them very nicely not to pack the bags so that they are too heavy. I’d rather make an extra trip or two rather than struggle or have the bag rip/handle come off. Of course the lady packing didn’t listen to me. One bag developed a hole in the bottom (I got it in just in time so that things didn’t fall through and break) plus my back hurt from lugging. Who puts 10 lbs of apples in a flimsy bag?

  6. I saw the ad for this show and usually don’t stay up until 11 and thought this may be worth watching. I think it has room for improvement, but I liked the premise. I think Kaitlin did well as the lead actress and for now I’ll overlook the trope of her character not getting along with the detective she was assigned to work with.

    For a while there was a trend to having a card you had to buy in the laundromat, for like $1 in addition to the money you load on it, that was good only there, and didn't refund unused credit or the cost of the card.  That was extra annoying if you weren't going back to that laundromat. 

    Now they're starting to eschew quarters in favor of credit cards.  I don't like it because I can't keep track like I can if I have a stack of 20 quarters.  Which is no doubt part of the reason they do it.

    At this point in my life I don’t need to use a laundromat, and have had to buy the card when I stayed with a friend in a building that used them. I hate the idea of having to pony up a credit card. Too many ways it could be scammed i.e., those fake readers at gas stations. I’d buy a prepaid low amount card to use ($20-25) just for the washateria.
