I know some people must agree with me here.  Twilight  book series by Stephenie Meyer Condiments on hot dogs (hot take: it should just be the dog and grilled onions) Pineapple (I like the juice, but not eating the fruit itself--can't really say why) The Bear Microsoft Teams Spy thrillers (I've fallen asleep during them) The Notebook Exercising Being up high and standing on something see-through Avatar  movie franchise Beer (overall) Labubus Great Expectations  by Charles Dickens Clubbing Deep water and deep water activities (e.g. scuba diving) (Prompt by Eleanor Pratt) Photo by Anastasiya Badun on Unsplash

Rocky is a good sport to twerk Of course Usman rushes up to supply music Rob, you aren't subtle Oof, Rob, I think you blew it (or not it seems) Chantel, you're so awkward Rocky, can't you just accept that Chantel is nervous?

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 9, episode 5

Time for some family meetings. Darcey is a delight But also, let us leave before you have sex Oof sounds like your dad may be prejudiced, Tigerlily I don't think Yara was right for getting a puppy without telling Jovi I like Gino's family I want good things for Julia Matt is a better guy than Gino Gino sucks Is Adnan sure to avoid pork? Tigerlily's dad and stepmom are more understanding than I expected I don't need to hear about Georgi's tongue Wow Darcey and Georgi do not communicate well Jasmine makes potato salad?

Meltdown: When was the last time you totally lost it?

This may not be the most recent time I totally lost it, but it is a potent one.  After my dog Velma died, I was horrible to my mom. She was so supportive and kind, but I lost it when she told me the drawstring on my dress was trailing on the ground.  Why did this set me off? Not really sure to be honest, but it was the final straw. Maybe because, yes I did  know that the drawstring was on the ground, but I just didn't care. My dog had died, and I hadn't been with her when it happened. What did it matter if the drawstring was on the ground? Did my mom think I hadn't noticed? Surely I had noticed but just didn't care. I yelled at her and stormed into the store to buy a bracelet to put Velma's dog tag on so I could keep her with me. I was so upset that my mom didn't come with me. Didn't she know I needed her to come with me? Yes, looking at it as a rational person, I realize I had just yelled at her, and she thought (as she told me later when I tearily confront...
