Reporting from the porch with a glass of iced tea and exactly zero interest in doing anything productive after 3 PM. Happy Friday, happy summer, and happy Summer Friday to all who celebrate! The tomatoes are growing, the watermelons still taste better with seeds, and somewhere a person is paying a 300% markup for pre-cut fruit and calling it convenience. I pray for them.

May your afternoon be short, your sunscreen be effective, and your weekend be free of scammers, algorithm goblins, and mysterious emails promising inheritance from distant mango barons. If you see a friend, tell them GMGA and remember to say it back. Enjoy the sunshine, touch some grass, and don’t forget that life is too short to buy watermelon cubes in a plastic cup.
