_Started Typing: 2:24 PM ET Clicked Reply: 3:25 PM ET_ Today started with a nice change of pace: one of my company’s buildings is only 2 miles from my house, and one of my employees had to go there this morning for a briefing. I met him afterwards and bought him a cup of coffee – from the cafe in the lobby, vs the iffy free coffee in the break rooms – and we hung out for a little while. We have video Teams chats with each other almost daily, but I hadn’t seen him in person since he was hired back in June. I passed my local Safeway on the way home, and stopped in because I happened to be out of bananas (and running low on a few other things). In addition to the stuff I needed I picked up some pre-made chicken ceasar pinwheels for lunch, which I hadn’t had in a while: they were quite yummy, and also a nice change. 🙂 Waaaay back in December, I learned that the U.S. Supreme Court is trying a [lottery](https://ticket.supremecourt.gov/OnlineTicketing/Request) for gallery tickets (vs the “get in line early in the morning and hope for a seat” method, which is still available): I requested six arguments in late February/early March. They said that notification would be provided three weeks before the requested argument, and – true to their word – this morning I learned that I wasn’t selected to get a ticket for 02/24. Five more chances to go… 🤞 I built the lil’ baby Lego Death Star yesterday afternoon. If anyone wants to see it – and how it’s displayed (hint: it’s behind the landspeeder) – you can visit my [Lego photo album](https://ibb.co/album/nqqf2q?sort=name_asc). This weekend I’ll order my next big set. > [@(Old) The MMP is the place to be!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/old-the-mmp-is-the-place-to-be/1013472/390): > > { _slaps thighs in Midwestern_ } Ha! 😂 > [@scareyfaerie](#): > > Yes, all our litter trays except the bathroom one sit on an island of puppy pads and newspaper!

The only reason I thought posting the list in the MMPs might be easier is because the FAQ is locked, but I’ll contact a mod about how to get access. Trust me, though: (a) posting the list is super easy and (b) I’d never feel any obligation/requirement to post it _every single_ Monday! 🙂 > [@NinthAcolyte](#): > > Things are generally going well Yay!
