Now I'm Your Hero


See these? They are Skinny Cow Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwiches, and they are delicious. Buy them and eat them and come back to tell me how wonderful I am for telling you about them. [The good news is that there are only six in a box.]

    Oh if only! The only flavors we get here are vanilla or chocolate. We saw the mint ones once. Strawberry shortcake, mmm!

    I have wanted to try these for a long time now, but I was afraid they wouldn't be any good. Thanks!

    We don't get Skinny Cow products up here, but I will add this to my list of thing to try when I get to the US; I like to know what all the fuss is about.

    Central Market has the strawberry shortcake flavor, in addition to the chocolate mint flavor and the -- wait for it -- chocolate peanut butter flavor. I might save one of the chocolate peanut butter ones for you if you promise to be nice.

Reading/ Watching/ Listening

 Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.

It’s a disorder related to Autism, but sufferers are said to be “high functioning.” Just looking at him, you’d never know that anything was wrong. But if you spend some time with him, you’ll see that he has trouble with social functioning. Asperger’s sufferers (they call themselves “Aspies”) aren’t good at self-reflection, and they aren’t good at picking up on social cues. They're also (in most cases) uncoordinated, and they tend to have a variety of tics (physical and behavioral). On top of this, Emmet has an anxiety disorder. Emmet’s life is tough. He is in trouble constantly at school because of the little tics that he’s developed, and because of his anxiety, and because he is afraid of going to the bath
