I Want To Be Underwhelmed: May The Spring of 2025 Continue To Underwhelm You

Pretty much everything I ate today came from Trader's Joes.

Except the baked Ritz crackers. They're so damn good.

I am annoyed by the overuse of the word "super".

That's super awesome. I'm super excited to try that new restaurant. Our trip was super relaxing.

Ugh.

Why are the squirrels looking particularly ratty this Spring?

I have two 30-minute workout sessions at Planet Fitness starting at 1 pm ET today. I'm looking forward to them.

R3, maybe the tariffs are taking their toll on them, too.

I bought a cheap roll of aluminum foil that doesn't come in a box. You can't tear off a piece neatly - it's all messed up. Lesson learned, don't skimp when it comes to buying foil.

Da doo ron-ron-ron, Da doo ron-ron

From a distance, I thought a tourist was wearing a heavy backpack in front as well as in back.

The front was all gut.

Here we are!

Thanks, OP.

80 degrees and breezy, a perfect day to hang sheets on the line to dry.

I just finished watching a season 1 episode of Inspector Linley on Britbox. Henry Cavill is a school boy and he is heartbreakingly young and beautiful.

I just finished watching Ludwig, the comedic mystery series from the BBC with David Mitchell and loved it. I highly recommend it. So, I was far from underwhelmed by it which means my post really doesn't belong here but I'm OP so I can do what I want.

I finally started watching the John Wick movies. They are crazy! I’ve seen the first 2.

I do like the society that they have: the hotels, the professional courtesy, the apparently endless sources of money, how everybody seemingly knows everybody else.

It’s very cool. 😎

I just made my first trip to the local food pantry. It was virtually empty. I got a frozen packet of ham. Now I need to bake some bread for it. Then I remembered I probably qualify for the senior food program.

Temps hit 80 today, with a breeze. Beautiful. But, we're having frost advisories tonight.

Crazy.

R15 Where do you live with those extremes?

You don't have to be hyper specific...just, what state?

You're not looking so hot yourself, bitch.

I bought a new duvet cover at Jysk. It's a print. I've had solid colors for so long it's freaking me out a bit in the space. The cats are unbothered, so I guess it's just me.

Going food shopping tomorrow and I will still buy what I like no matter the price. I don't eat a lot so there's that. When is the last time you saw a fat old person? Rarely.

I ate a quarter of a Raisin Bran muffin today.
