365 Days of UNF: Day 30
What The Hell Was THAT?
I mean seriously.
Ben and I have been fans of Sabrina since its inception in 2018. It was semi-creepy mindless fun, and it's no wonder it was continually renewed.
But something went seriously awry this year, and most specifically in the final few episodes of what is supposedly the series entire run. It's as if everyone got notice that it wasn't being renewed and decided to somehow wrap everything up in the most ridiculous ways possible. It felt like the writers just threw everything into a Cuisinart and pushed blend. What came out was a wholly unsatisfying serving of goop that made me understand why people were complaining so loudly online (we were several weeks behind in our viewing).
I'm sad to see the show end, and even moreso that they chose to go out in this fashion. I won't go into specifics (you can find plenty of that online if you're so inclined), but I'm just going to throw up my hands and walk away, disappointed that what was such a fun escape imploded so badly.
Next up: Supernatural. (Yes, we finally made it through the entire series.)
SPOILER ALERT: I felt much the same about the way the writers chose to end Supernatural as well.

I Dreamt This Thirty Five Years Ago
In my dream it was late afternoon. The sky was clear and they were coming in from the west, just in front of the Catalina Mountains north of Tucson.

Blast from the Past
It's amazing the things you find packed away when you're forced to move and someone else boxes everything up.
This was published in October 1987. I never realized how many of these items were long gone from Jack's menu until I saw this. I miss the Monterey and Mushroom burgers; also the Taco Salad and the Supreme Nachos.
I Want to Know…

Now if I can only get our elderly dog to stop waking us up at 3 a.m. demanding to be fed I might actually get a good night's sleep…

Our national nightmare is over. The inaugurations of Joseph R. Biden and Kamala Harris were glorious. Truly glorious.
