dual personalities

Daughter #1 here. Thanks to The Boy for loaning us his Disney + login because we had a hankering for some classic episodes of The Simpsons. We watched:

A Star is Burns, Boy Scounts N’ the Hood, Two Bad Neighbors, Homer the Heretic, and A Streetcar Named Marge.

It is really amazing to have all of these episodes at the press of a button. We laughed, we marveled that these episodes aired, we laughed some more. Back in the day, we felt like the writers were watching our lives and putting them on TV. Now, it seems quaint that a primetime tv show could contain so many literary and film references, feature a family that goes to church, and push the envelope in so many ways, while still being immensely popular. How times change.

Anyway, while I’ve been home caring for my mother, I’ve also been getting things accomplished. I got my hair and eyebrows done for the first time in ages, I got my car tuned up, and I’ve gotten to visit with a friend who is moving to St. Louis, Today, we ventured to the Zoo which requires reservations. It was not very crowded, but it was quelle hot.

Nonetheless, we rode the train and got to see some animals up close which are usually obscured by children who always get priority on the front row [eyeroll].

I am pleased to report that my mother is well on the road to recovery and is possibly returning to regular blogging duties next week. In the meantime, enjoy this:
