Part of what's fun about The Domestic Partner is his varied interests, hobbies, and skills, combined with his delightfully scatterbrained nature. Which is how you're going around the house closing up for the night and think "huh, there's a new mountain bike in the dining room," and it doesn't faze you.

At the doctor's office. They asked me for my birthday AND how old I am. That is so rude. They could figure that out with my birthdate. The computer probably automatically does that. There was no need to make me figure out how old I am. It was shocking. I am 7yrs older than I thought- and that was already too old for me to begin with!

Not cool. 😟

For the love of all that is good can we please stop with the glass bathroom doors!

And if your bedroom or bathroom door is any kind of glass, that should be clearly outlined in bold in your room description of your hotel, airbnb, BnB, etc. This is not a fun find when on a work retreat with colleagues, a vacation with your in-laws, or if you are just generally a person who doesn't like to poop with an audience.

In New Delhi. Went out to get a full body #massage. It turned out that it was a brothel running under the disguise of a #SPA. Ended up getting a decent massage with a happy ending.

Life is full of #surprises.

Welcome to The Great Unraveling! The #globaleconomy is entering an #era of #stagnation, #stagflation, and #surprises.

The 3S's together would define the years ahead as #low #growth, high #inflation, and #diminishing #returns to #capital, create a #perfectstorm of #converging #crises.

The "surprises" can be more #war, another #pandemic, and runaway #climatechange inducing #migration and #conflict. Stressed #debt increases due to #ratehikes add to the overall #misery.

Thought for the day....
Shall I go in the wife's cupboard & swap the tablets in the 'Constipated' box with those in the 'Diahorrea' box for a laugh ? Or do you think it's a sh#t idea folks ?

An “inflation surprise” is the difference b/w the actual #inflation rate and the median of #forecasts collected a month before the data release. In early 2022, those inflation #surprises kept getting bigger, chart @GoldmanSachs

We must embrace surprises, for surprises serve as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of life. Without surprises, we may become complacent and stagnant. While not all surprises are necessarily pleasant, they do challenge us and push us out of our comfort zone. This helps us grow and evolve as individuals. Let us embrace the unexpected and all the surprises that life has to offer. #surprises #unexpected #life #surprise!
