We have some real vibes at the ice cream place today. In the rain.

Two different, differently busy weekends. Weekend One Last weekend, Bob took me out for an overnight in a nearby ski town to celebrate my birthday. We took his sister and our brother-in-law out for dinner and drinks as well, to make it a proper party. I had so much fun! I bought a new dress…

Please enjoy this short film by Grant. He hopes to be considered for best original screenplay and best actor and best director. I’m the cinematographer, and I’m already the best.

I’ve been glued to my phone for years, more than a decade, certainly,…
