What is infuriating about the parade on Saturday was that they spent 45 million on it. If they were so dedicated to it, why not just sped 145 million and at least make it worth the spectacle? As is you were going to steal that money from medicaid and social security, you could’ve at least given us good TV in return? So stupid – have you even seen how India does these two times a year and delivers on everything?

Felt like 80% of kids at camp were from northern Virginia only. Like literally kid and us ran into so many people. Made me feel a lot more relieved about the camp. Plus she is housed with her besties so this should be fun. Looked way better organized than the Annapolis navy camp of last year. We both def had huge sigh of relief mentally.
My Father’s Day was spent driving 2 hours in rain to UVA and back two hours in pouring rain. On the plus side UVA campus is gorgeous and the kid was immediately I like this way more than college park (which it is!). I was like yeah also one of top universities of state and nation so better get studying 🙃
An excellent fathers day dinner at Agora McLean, a Turkish-Lebanese joint. The food was absolutely delicious! Yet another good middle eastern food option around!
When your doggo who normally likes to walk, cuts it short and demand you take the shorter route home you know the weather’s really swampy. Its just toasty and humid outside & doggo was simply not having it. (The one day you want it to rain and thunder, its taking its own sweet time before pouring! even the Gods have bent the knee.)
I have been very pleasantly surprised and happy with how good USMobile works. For 690 bucks a year (yes, a year), I got three lines, two with 35gb internet and 1 with 10 gb (for kid) + free calling to India and each plan with its own hotspot which we never use. So far we have never been deprioritized or have even felt lack of speed. And 35gb is ample internet per month. 57 bucks for 3 lines per month? I am never going back to Verizon or ATT until something happens to USMobile!
This is America. This is why I refuse to put my family at risk by going to a protest. At the end of the day white people won’t care two hoots about us if something happened to anyone in my family. We have absolutely no one in this country except our friends. It is not worth it.
There is nothing more white suburbia than swimming. It literally is the whitest sport ever. I think we were one of the only three brown families in the entire frigging meet. Thankful that we stay in blue area and they are all nice people, many of whom we know now since a few years.
My god it’s hot and sweltering outside! The swim meet felt extra long just due to humidity outside. Bodes well for some heavy rain later which I hope for once it does coz I want it to ruin all celebrations in dc. Need a nap now in cold ac to recover from the swim meet 😆
Cousin who was here last week switched to android few months back after being on iOS for more than a decade. He gave me a quick tour of all the new AI features and goddamn they are so far far ahead of Apple at this point. The fluidity of even using the feature is so delightful. Of course it comes with giving up your privacy and data but his point was that companies already know too much about him that this didn’t matter much anymore and it was more so what! not that I am moving soon but gosh Apple really is struggling it feels now with iOS.
