Some are looking at a booster shot. I'm so short, I need a booster seat to enjoy most things. Hoping this week's fan submissions in Deep Thoughts Thursday with The Boozy Weathergirl boosts your spirits!

Kerri Robie was sitting on her ass, watching a women's soccer game on TV, thinking to herself, "these women are so inspiring. Some of them are in their 30s. I should really be more active." Then, within seconds, debated whether she should shower or just use dry shampoo to get ready, because, effort.

Michelle Senglaub is irked by these "influencers" who make shitloads of money for just standing there, talking to their phones like they're having an actual conversation. Seriously? What happened to having to actually work for your money?

Margie Smith really loves when she takes the pitcher of water out of fridge, where it is ALWAYS kept, and before she can put it back, her hubby somehow miraculously discovers this space for his bowl of fruit or whatever. Really? Get out of my spot! This goes for cupboards, closets and drawers too!

Amy Smith can't stand when you take the time to sincerely thank someone for something they did, and they respond with "no problem." That's just another way of saying "you're not welcome!"

Sheryl Hopkins reminded me of one of my biggest pet peeves - removeable cups in bras! It always amazes me - they don't actually fall out of the bras, but rather they somehow shift to one side, on top of each other, or contort into lumps. Then, there's like this one-inch slit on the side that you have to try and shove your fingers in to manipulate and move the things! I guess I should be happy that they don't make bras like this in my size :)

Susan Fandel expressed her disdain for forms that leave about a quarter inch of space in which to write necessary information. She went blind and now has hand cramps from paperwork after a fender bender where she was writing so tiny, she could barely fit her initials in the boxes, let alone any actually information! Have the people making these forms ever actually filled one out themselves?

Bree Mugavin has a legit question for all you optometrists out there - if love is blind, how to explain love at first sight?

Donna Costa shared the annoyance of hot flashes - especially when you've just come out of the shower! In the movies, sweat beads on hot bodies look like magic. For the rest of us, it just looks like you forgot to dry off. And don't get me started about this happening on a Zoom call, when you can't tell if clients can see the sweat beads and red face or if they think the lighting and clarity is off somehow all of a sudden. And it's all you can think about, so you're not paying a lick of attention to whatever's going on in this meeting...

My cousin, Cyndi Gaffney, has so much to offer to this, but I'm choosing her pointing out the frustration you experience as you sit there in bed, calculating how much sleep you'll get if you can just fall asleep right now - and this goes on for hours.

Jane Roberts sent me a bevvy of options found in her doctor's office a while ago. There were many to choose from, but two of my favorites centered around death. First, how important is someone to be considered assassinated instead of murdered? And also, why do they use sterile needles for lethal injection? Think about it.
Happy final weeks of summer to all! If you’re having a hot flash, consider the recipe below!
