Holy Fuck, ladies, this. All of this.

There are two kind of big purchases I want/need to make in the next few months:
1. A new mattress, because after sleeping on my girlfriend's "not a 10 year old on-sale Beautyrest that has been abused via moving a bunch of times, being put on IKEA bedframes without proper support, and slept on by some heavy partners" bed, I realized that a lot of my hip/back problems are a result of sleeping on what amounts to a puffy hammock.

Problem: I want a Queen, because I'm a grown-ass woman and I fucking hate touching people when I sleep. And even though I want a $900 mattress, I'm like "fuck now I have to buy a new bedframe too, well fuuuuuuck me." Even though once the bed and mattress are purchased, I will be SO. FUCKING. HAPPY.

This has been A Thing on my mind for a year.

2. A bike. A simple, normal, Public bike, the Mixte model. It's on sale. I could literally go into town, pick out a color, get a helmet, and ride the thing to a Passover seder RIGHT NOW. Do I? NO. Because .... because... because..... what if it gets stolen? What if I don't ride it enough? What if I get hit by a car? Even though I 100% know that it will make my life easier considering I live on an island and need it to get to the ferry because ferry parking is a grade-A bitch.

Yes please, I would gladly get boned by this creature.

I just cannot with that shit. *sigh*

Have you ever seen that SNL Andy Samberg digital short where he sings a song about throwing things on the ground? "I threw it on the GROUND! I don't need your hand-outs, hot dog man! I'm an ADULT!" Those dudes remind me of that, but they're somehow the liberal versions of that.

YES THIS IS THE ONLY SOLUTION.

"They didn't know any better back then. I mean, they did, but social media hadn't been invented at that point so publicly shaming bigots wasn't a huge thing back then. It's okay, honey, I'm glad they're showing those episodes to you in law school to illustrate prejudice and oppression. It's good that you know now, but yes, we watched that show. It was very popular."

I TRIED TO FORGET SWING REVIVAL. GOOD FUCKING HEAVENS.

I am now trying to figure out a way to bleach the eyeballs in my mind for remembering when grown-ass men danced -- WITHOUT IRONY -- to Zoot Suit Riot during the Clinton Administration.

And those fucking Chicken Soup books.

Okay, I'm crying now. Thank you for this -- it is so beautiful and lovely and is just what I needed to read before a Seder with my family of friends tomorrow night.

I would like to be that woman and also watch this forever. They need to have their own television show so that I can watch them all the time.

(I'm really happy other people kiss their goats; people thought I was a weird kid when I would kiss my favorite goat friend on the nose. Whatever, they have soft, perfect noses and they are so gentle and GOATS!)
