I think I might loath grocery shopping less if it were just grocery shopping, rather than:

1. Coming up with a week’s worth of meal plans for a family of four
2. Checking the fridge and all the cabinets to see what we have and what we need
3. Dragging myself out to the grocery store and dealing with all of that
4. Getting home and then having to put all the groceries away

No, this is not a request for whatever recipe management, meal planning, and shopping list app you are about to recommend.

One of my neighbors the next block down on our street is an urban planner by trade. He has a small kid, as do several of the people in the houses right around him, so he has organized with them to all park their cars on the street even though they all have driveways and garages.

As a result, the street becomes effectively much narrower through that block, which has a traffic-calming effect similar to curb bump-outs and chicanes.

I quite like my Kaweco Sport, except for this:

Mind you, this is after I have cleaned out a bunch of the excess ink that routinely collects inside the cap.

This happens all the time. While the pen has never exploded on me or leaked outside of the cap whilst in my pocket, I have to clean out the cap and wipe off the barrel at least two or three times a week, and it is pretty annoying.

I have tickets to go see the 4K re-release of Shin Godzilla tomorrow, and I don’t mind saying that I am pretty goddamned excited about it.

Other than the execrable 1998 American movie (which does not count) the only other time I have seen Godzilla on the big screen was when the restored version of the 1954 original played at the Film Forum in… 2003?
