The story about two gay Iraqis who found love and eventually made it safely to the USA to get married made me want to cry

Watching the U.S. news makes me want to cry right now. But probably for different reasons than yours, Ibby

I just put a small blueberry-cinnamon coffee cake in the oven. The cookbook calls it "Blueberry Boy Bait," which is officially the best recipe name ever.

I had plenty of French wine and cheese tonight.

I seriously want Blueberry Boy Bait in my life

Excuse my lack of randomness, Myg. But doesn't everyone?

I was able to eat pizza for the first time in two weeks after suffering the stomach flu.

Hey, the sun's out! If not for the six inches of snow, I could totally do some yardwork today!

I slipped and fell on the road the other day because of the ice.

I was listening to my new Michael Buble CD when Bobby was upstairs playing the exact same song on the piano.

Things I am going to miss about living in the U.S.

The state flags.

Maryland’s looks like it was designed by Duela Dent.

I’ve always liked Virginia’s, because it has a ¼-naked woman on it.
Plus, appreciate the motto.

And I have to leave behind my extensive CD collection. Well, CD’s are pretty much over, I guess, what with streaming, etc.

Hurray! The Boston Celtic won the Stanley Cup 98 years after last winning it!

I love sports!

Where you headed to Klar? I hadn't heard you were moving.

In my memory, the singer illuminating this instructional had lower vocal intonation. In spite of that, I still smile and give a not-involuntary, "Beep beep."

I miss my dogs.

I really hate that I now suffer from winter skin. Ah, youth, you gave betrayed me yet again.

I hate FOMO (feeling of missing out).

I was almost horrified by a raw egg on top of carbonara pasta. My friends told me that was normal for carbonara...apparently most American restaurants mix it for you due to our fears of consuming raw eggs.

I miss Philippine beaches

I have a headache after a tense board meeting at a clinic ... on Valentine's Day

I have just seen a clip featuring Milo Yiannopoulos. I never have to listen to him ever again

I feel out of touch with the world. I'm so immersed in my studies.

That's how I've felt with Legion World lately.

I went to a Holi festival today.

I totally LOVED it. The dancing, the clothes, the food, and, of course, the colors!

Also, I've always felt a certain affinity with East Indians. I'm exotic enough that I don't stand out in an East Indian crowd, and I find they're usually much nicer to me than far too many of my fellow Latin Americans are.

Also, I've crushed on lots of Indian celebrities, male and female alike. To give but one single example, to this day I still have dreamy memories of the Indian-English actor Naveen Andrews in his mid-1990s prime.

Oddly enough, I've never really been into Bollywood movies. I much prefer slice-of-life Indian stories, or when Indian filmmakers show us their own perspectives on Western cultures (i.e., Mira Nair's TV movie "Hysterical Blindness", about two Jersey girls in 1987 played by Uma Thurman & Juliette Lewis, or Shekhar Kapur's two movie about Queen Elizabeth starring Cate Blanchett, especially the first.
