weary: tired, worn-out, beaten down, exhausted, in need of rest. they were weary after their long journey. wearily, she sat down on the couch and kicked off her shoes. he had grown weary of this conversation.

wary: guarded, cautious, on-edge, careful. they were wary of the approaching stranger. warily, she poked at the dark shape in the corner of her room. he paused, wary, but nodded anyway.

thank you for this reply you get the funny crown today with bonus points for accuracy

She was refusing to speak to us unless it was about the beach

"What do you want for dinner"

"I wanna go to the beach"

"How are you feeling??"

"I wanna go to the beach"

"Did you have a good nap?"

"Beach"

Did we go to a fucking Cracker Barrel for dinner because all penny is willing to say other then "beach" is "pancakes"

Yes yes we did

Had to stop for the night because we're so so tired, stayed about 2 hours from where we're going-

Jump cut to it being 5:30AM and two tiny eyes at the side of the bed are whispering

"I wanna go to da beach"

We made it to the beach and within 15 minutes she

-sprinted into the ocean

-came in a centimeter of catching a seagull

-joined a fully adult soccer game

-convinced a group of children to attack her father with squirt guns

We're here for a weeks folks

After a solid three hours of just chaos (and my husband and I tag teaming in and out to idk just survive) she stopped, whispered "I need to eat" and then started sprinting towards the hotel rooftop restaurant, I assume, being led by smell and instinct alone

We did manage to get her back to the hotel to lay down for an hour but she did in fact yell EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE A CAT (just that sentence) for that whole hour

Jesus Christ she's joined a bachelorette party

I think we successfully tired her out because she didn't come to the side of the beach and demon whisper BEEEEEEAACH until 7:45 this morning

She's currently shotgunning frootloops and waving at anyone who walks into the lobby

I need a coffee IV

Being a mom to the most extrovert extrovert to ever extrovert is so fun and also so tiring lol

My husband is taking her for a beach walk while he drinks his ghost energy drink and I'm going to get around and then we're going to take her into the city for the day and hope there's enough there to keep her occupied pray for us

Got a voice note of Penny just screaming

I HAFFA GO TO THE OCEAN

hoping my child returns and doesn't give in to the call of Posiedon

SHES FOUND A SECOND COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BACHELORETTE PARTY!? HOW!?

As my husband just pointed out after seeing this post

"She did find them and they were NOT happy that she had to leave, we were harshing their vibe, Penny was not"

Took her on a nighttime beach walk, during low tide when there is a lot of sea foam

Smash cut to penny galloping down the coast screaming DADA THE OCEAN HAS BUBBLES

She's eating a corn dog at 8:45 pm because we straight up couldn't catch her / convince her to leave until now

10:45 pm and I think I'm safe I think she's asleep and I just heard the tiniest

"Ooooooh yeaaaaaaaaaaah" from her bed as she finally ends her day long rendition of everybody wants to be a cat

Can't wait for day 3

I guess she technically slept in cause she's still asleep

She woke me up at 2 am telling me it was time to go to the beach

Kicked her father out of the bed at 5 am

Woke me back up at 6am to ask me if I was done with my sandcastle

And is now still snoring

Went to a cafe that had something called "The Large Fruit Platter"

It was carnage

Broke out on to the balcony buck ass naked

Penny is about to have a full fledged little kid meltdown, she is warm, she is tired, she has skipped her nap and we've had to tell her she unfortunately can't go fishing today (we have no fishing poles- she's never been fishing in her life).

I can see the waterworks coming and sometimes you gotta feel the feelings so I just brace myself

As she takes in that first breath to scream, she stops and instead demon whispers "ITS THE MOON!!"

And now she's just, doing a weird little moon dance around the parking lot.

Kids are so amazing and strange.

Tried to fully crash a beach date twice husband finally had to haul her off still yapping to the poor couple who were fully dumbstruck that she has literally no apprehension about anything or anyone

Okay imagine my 34 pound tiny terror standing over this thing yelling DAS A GOOD BOY! Cause that's what was happening.

Waking up to our last day of vacation to Penny Yelling HEY DADA I FELL INTO DA TOILET was both jarring and hilarious

Took her to the Aquarium, she tried to become one with the manta rays. We sprinted the entire thing twice in an hour. She "wants to be a fish"

Tried to lick someone's dog back, caused a table of elderly folks to lose their minds

This is happening, the lore of this spirit is developing as we speak.

Girlfriend just passed right out no warning or nothing she's finally succumbed to the call of the sandman. What a vacation

Just the 5 hour trek home tomorrow people, we survived

Penny woke up at 5:45 am by jumping into our bed and chanting ONE MORE BEACH WALK ONE MORE BEACH WALK and who are we to deny her?

This has gotten even better.

Currently planning this years beach trip

We ARE taking grandparents this time as back up 😂

he's unironically 100% correct and i will hear nothing against him

There used to be this thing where I was small when you would go to Barnes and Noble, and sit on a tiny stool, and there would be a touchscreen, and a pair of big headphones. You would put on the headphones, sit on the stool, and browse the catalog of CDs. Once you found an album, artist or song, it would play a 30 second snippet. You could do this for every song on the album for 30 seconds.

Someone would carefully snip a sound file for each song for sale, ensuring the 30 second snippet was representative of the track. Not just the beginning, not always the chorus, but the most iconic part of the song - possibly to help people who were literally browsing with their ears, trying to find something they’d heard on the radio. Or possibly because that was the most marketable way to sell songs. I remember them doing a good job - they would try not to cut off in the middle of lyrics, and so on. It struck me that it would be a cool job to have, being the person who snipped the songs.

Then you could buy the CD. I think you could possibly also bring a CD to the screen and beep it, to make it play.

There would usually be some dreadful man in his twenties listening too hard at the screen, and if you were a small child, your duty would be to go and stare at him contemptuously until he moved. Then he would do the same to you. You would hate each other coldly and without speaking. In those days it would not be worth making a forum post about it, but that was the level of hate that you would both have in your heart. He would always win anyway, because he was not there with his mom.

In this way, albums were found. It was not easy.

I love seeing dogs and wolves in movies because they’re acting so vicious but also their tails are wagging so hard unless the post-processing guys specifically edited out the tails (which is slightly less obvious but also hilarious in a different way once you spot it).

This is why I love the dog in the original casting of The Thing so damn much. I have never seen an acting dog move with such a deliberate, calm intent. It was like every single motion and gesture this animal made was intentional.

Apparently, according to the behind-the-scenes documentation, this dog was just fuckin like that. Almost never, if at all, looked at the camera crews and production teams. Never excitedly wagged his tail on set no matter how much of a good boy he was being. If he did, it was the same… deliberate motions.

His name was Jed, and even though he’s a dog, he deserves an oscar. He was an exceptionally good boy.

Jed also played the role of White Fang in the 90s Disney film version!

I honestly can’t imagine a better portrayal of a stoic, aloof White Fang, who gradually softens, than Jed.  Good boy.

That dog knows his job, and knows he’s damn good at it, and knows he’s probably better at his job than his coworkers.

That dog was delivering straight up Shakespearean performances, and he probably was saddled with human coworker who had to make use of such unprofessional things as second takes.

My condolences, Jed, my condolences.

Fun fact about Jed! Jed was a wolf cross, which is why he doesnt have most dog mannerisms, and why casting him as The Thing is brilliant:

Because he’s not a dog. He’s just pretending to be one.

He was a good boy
