3 quick things:
First, I learned a new word on Bluesky and it is “kakistocracy.”

Second, I got my tickets for the new Wicked movie starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. We’re going Thanksgiving weekend and I fully expect the audience to be chock full of musical theater kids (young and old) who WILL sing along. My husband said he wanted to go with me, so he’ll just have to deal with it. (I will be one of the singing people.)

Third, I will be spending the day with the world’s most adorable and perfect infant today. I thought my own kids were pretty darn cute, but my granddaughter is off-the-charts gorgeous. And it’s not just me saying that…there is a general consensus that she’s the prettiest little dark-haired, dark-eyed baby that anyone has ever seen! There is absolutely no danger that anyone has to fake it, like Jerry and Elaine did in that classic Seinfeld scene. 🤣
Have a great day, if you can. If not, just keep going.
XOXO

That Seinfeld episode is so classic! Enjoy your beautiful grandchild and have a wonderful time at Wicked! We can’t let the kakistocracy steal all our joy…

Just love your enthusiasm for “Wicked”. Sing loud, sing proud. I have tickets to see “Strictly Ballroom” and “Calamity Jane” on stage over coming weeks. Just try to shut me up !
Have fun with your Little Person 🙂

Looking forward to the film and hoping they don’t dumb it down too much for the mainstream. The play is among my favorites! Some words that go well with your new word are ‘enshitification’ and its companion ‘enstupidification;. You’re welcome. hahaha
Muchos bessitos for your grandbaby. ❤

Haha, great words! (Would be even funnier if everything wasn’t sounding so truly dystopian 😳)
Thanks for the 💋s. She’s the only thing getting me through.

I Think Ariana Grande would be great choice as Eva Perón In a Evita (musical) Broadway revival
