I'm writing this early because I have to fill out my ballot. I'm early-ish voting but there's a place where I can drive and drop off my ballot direct to the election supervisor. Which I've never had to do...but since the GOP is sabotaging the post office... I'm mostly trying to stay out of politics but it's not really a secret how I feel. My one friend who voted for Trump has come crawling back trying to get in the friend group and make amends. So far the only people willing to talk to her is me and one other girl...and we're very cautious. Whatever happens with that relationship will happen. I pretty much know who I'm voting for but I always do research into the candidates. So I'm going to podcast and research! After getting my work done early. Fun times! I did manage to escape Twitter without seeing Joyce Carol Oates' foot issues. Something things you should maybe only share with your doctor? I |

Buying:
My only complaint about the embosser is that it came in the locked position and in order to open it, I needed help. Someone had to press down while I moved the pin from 'lock' to 'unlock'. I only mention because I couldn't find any help with the enclosed materials about pressing down. Maybe that was just me and not for everyone but just in case...
My other purchase was a migraine hat. I wanted this for work and not sleeping. I use a cold/hot water pack (filled with water and placed in the freezer until it's solid) for sleeping. I'm actually using it now and it's working out okay. Basically I needed something to help take the edge off when I need to function. Here's a whole list for them, the one I'm using is number 6, the magic gel migraine relief cap. It is purple and you can pull it over your eyes or just have it around the top of your head. The gel packs run around the entire brim/lip so the front and back of your head can be cold. I've only used it just this once but I do think it's good.
Cooking:
I also tried a triple chocolate cheesecake. It was really, really rich. I didn't like it when it was all done with because it was too rich for my blood but I dropped it off for some neighbors and they loved it (and I ended up dropping off the recipe to them as well after they asked. Socially distanced of course). I think it was from an advert for Philadelphia Cream Cheese from about fifteen years ago. I can't find it to save my life at the moment after a quick internet search. It has the same idea as the Ina Garten Chocolate Espresso Cheesecake. Ina's is probably divine.
Listening:
I also downloaded the Dunzo podcast but I haven't given it a try yet.
