Anomalies & Curiosities

There's Love in the Air

Upon returning to FORM following a nice Valentines weekend, imagine my surprise to walk in on some rather scandalous PDA - right out in the open. My finer nature is aflutter. This is going in the journal.

but negative search results are new to me; seriously.

Documentation

Just for the purpose of clarity, I did not attend the Hot Dog Buddies Luncheon, but instead attempted attending the water and diet coke luncheon. In the end I succeeded at my attempt to attend the vegetable soup and apple luncheon. By myself.

How many potato chips do you think you can eat?

Well you can find out, or if you're smart, you can watch other people find out at the Mantua Potato Festival. This Friday through Sunday. You can see Miss Tater Tot crowned or participate in the potato bake-off auction. I'll probably try a potato pancake or a pierogi and wander around people watching, or I suppose potato watching in this case?

What's The Skinny?

If FORM were a person, this would be a little peek into its brain. Cool things. Random thoughts. Even the silly and stupid stuff. Only without all the icky gooey bits.
