There’s a certain feeling of satisfaction I get when I see an alert that someone has “liked” one of my posts. I should give out more likes. ---

There seems to be a lot of mixed-race couples in TV commercials these days. But usually black and white people. Rarely Asians. For diversity, I guess. And it’s cheaper than filming two commercials, one with a white couple and another with a black couple. Just mush them together in one ad. ---

My spouse thought there was a reduction (of both mixed race and same sex couples) during the month of October/November to give “people” one less thing to be mad about, but I didn’t notice a change. I also don’t watch commercials. If we don’t DVR something and zip past the commercials, as soon as a commercial comes on, my book comes up 📖 (I thought we had the little book reading emoticon from AO) ---

When I see the “replying…” notification to a topic I’m reading I’m filled with a certain anticipation of what could come next. …similar to seeing the “…” on my phone text messages. ---

Really random thought last night. For some reason I recalled how when I was young we always had a plate of sliced white bread on the table for every meal. Everyone had a slice or two of buttered bread. And it wasn’t just us, I recall other families doing this back then as well. Haven’t seen this anywhere else, or since though. ---

…I often had toast for breakfast, but we didn’t really do that bread thing. What is funny to me now are which foods of my childhood I cannot stand to eat now. I can’t have that squishy white bread (Wonder Bread-type) that I grew up eating. I remember that generic orange drink, too. Blech. ---

Ours was wheat bread (I didn’t have white bread until I left for college) but it was only my mom’s side of the family (from the mid-west), not my dad’s side. We also used to have bread (not toast) and butter as snacks, rather than chips or other snack foods. Feeling nostalgic now.
