My husband and I were just talking about potato/tomato Europe!! Summer is the season in which I most bemoan my potato Europe ancestry and how much my very cells seem to disdain heat.
We are currently watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and it's a great illustration of the points in the article about adults in the 2000s. It makes me nostalgic for college when my friends and I would wander around to see who was free, and then figure out something to do. With NO PHONES involved! 😮
Yes! I also loved this comment: "We really would just drive to someone’s house and see what they were doing. You and a couple people would be in the car and you’d be like, 'Let’s go by Brian and Mike’s.'” I loved that sort of thing in my young adult years.
I agree completely! I was pondering this afternoon that with the onset of dopamine addiction brought on by smart phones, we seem to have cast aside the pleasure of joyful social surprises. I suspect that has added to the current epidemic of loneliness as well.
I am so sad we've reached the end of Endeavour! I will savour this final season. Thank you for the reminder the new WOF bible has come out, off to order!
120!!! Goodness. And I love that Churchill quote and wonder if the same could be said of routines. Have a great weekend, Tsh!
You too, Shawn!
