Friday Five

1. There will never be a better representation of Boris Johnson in the middle of this #Brexit madness.  I love it!
2. Word of warning, this montage is heartbreaking.  But Ryan Murphy and Friends created a beautiful tribute to the 49 Orlando victims, as well as a call to action to outlaw the guns that killed these people.  


3. This week on Twitter, not only did I discover that a local newsman was following me (I have NO idea why seeing as I post nothing about Baltimore or Maryland), but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Stephanie Block who is going to play Trina in Falsettos actually liked my tweet about reading Falsettos. First Fully Committed commented to me and now Stephanie Block?  I'm famous! : )

4. BookDepository.com - Do you have any idea how amazing this website is?  Thousands upon thousands of books from all over the world - including all the British ones I adore - for absolutely, positively free shipping!  Apparently they come at the pace of a snail but if you can wait for them, you'll get a great deal.  I may or may not have bought 11 books that I've been wanting for the last year...

5. The best thing I learned all week was all about my godforsaken computer.  A few weeks ago, after 2 years of ignoring the calls to update to Windows 10, my dumb computer decided to auto-update to 10.  That caused all sorts of issues - we're talking 10 minutes just to log on, having to restart 8-10 times just to log on, crazy ghost like moving of my cursor and windows.  So after a bit of googling - thank goodness for Google! - I learned you can roll back to what you had before within 30 days of the update.  Thankfully it hadn't been 30 days yet and in a matter of a half hour, my computer was back to working well again.  Now I just have to figure out why 24 hours later, I can't launch Chrome...
