It's actually Palm Sunday but I'd like to change it to Chicken Parma Sunday instead. ๐Ÿ“

Welp I finished the 3rd Annihilation audiobook today/tonight on my drive. Still a little confused about what exactly was going on but I think maybe that's the point.

Saw someone mention World War Z so I went hunting for how I can listen to that one. Turns out it's not available as part of the Spotify Premium audiobooks and there was no option I could find besides buying it sooooo I may have hit the high seas. I could only find a version of the cool 2013 edition in like 92 WAV files and every 10th had overlapping parts so I stayed up late merging them all into 1 big MP3 and getting rid of the overlaps so it's nice and smooth. Found a great Audiobook player for Android which has Android Auto support called Smart Audiobook Player and was more than happy to right away pay the $3.29 or whatever it was for the full version after giving it a quick try.

It's a fantastic app from what I can see. It's how apps should be.. like they used to be before everyone started charging subscription fees.

I've driven Kia's, Mazda's, and Toyota's, and all of them have a strange issue: whenever inside my apartment complex parking area, the driver controlled power windows either don't work at all, or work unreliably. While everywhere else, it works perfectly.

Bacon, eggs, hollandaise on an English muffin please! I'm late to the hollandaise party. So good but I feel like it's hardly ever on breakfast menus anymore โ˜น๏ธ

It's good when it's good. During the hollandaise craze before covid, a lot of places bought the stuff ready made in a plastic bag and it was HORRIBLE. Also is a good breeding ground for bacteria, so order from a reputable supplier only imo. Or learn to make it yourself, which is not particularly easy but is by far the best.

Just watched another Brazilian movie with Leandro Hassam, the funny guy. It was so loud and chaotic I found it exhausting ...lol. But I do love watching any South American movie or tv series. All genres. Even telenovelas. I haven't seen one show yet where the depiction of characters or writing was bad. Except maybe The Chosen, that was a copy of Green Frontier but Green Frontier was pretty much incredible and makes everything similar look amateurish.

Such a lovely day today. Just taking it easy and doing a few easy and necessary chores. ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ˜Š
