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!

If only people in this country had this much enthusiasm and fervor to vote a black woman at the top, we would never be here lol. I’d love to know how many of these marchers sat out or voted for Trump because Kamala’s laugh was so annoying. Keep marching, while she sips tea at her brunch.

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.

Cousin who moved from Dallas to Denver came over for a visit last few days. It was great catching up and he is convincing me to move to Denver. I am actually NOT against the idea of moving to Denver at all. It has everything I want – ample sunshine, nice spring/summer/fall and even the winters are peppered with lots of warmish days though cold days are cold (but hey DC is somehow colder than Denver so thats a win). Plus the famous Denver sun melts the snow in no time so it never becomes a marshy mess like it becomes in DC area. Definitely a city on my list of places to think about.

The weather needs to act for once – tomorrow I need tornadoes and flash floods in all of DC near constitution Avenue. Bonus points if lightning strikes on magats.
