You know, there should be a #SoapOpera where all the characters spend all day in drudgery then go home and chat with each other on social media.

I'm not sure where the drama would come from but it would be fairly realistic I think.

**I bet I'm the only one on Mastodon watching and talking about the 1987 episodes of The Bold and The Beautiful.

"Friends and Lovers" is a song written by #JayGruska and #PaulGordon. The song was first recorded as a #duet by #GloriaLoring and #CarlAnderson in 1985 for the #soapOpera #DaysOfOurLives, produced by #DougLenier. That recording remained unreleased until the summer of 1986, when it was released shortly after a version by #JuiceNewton and #EddieRabbitt hit country radio. The country version featured the altered title of "Both to Each Other (Friends and Lovers)".

my sweetie is a big fan of the show, “Bones.”

I like it well enough but not while I’m trying to eat. (you’ll understand if you’ve ever watched it.)

one thing I like about it is it’s guest stars. this is probably not a complete list but…

Betty White
Billie Gibbons
Cyndi Lauper
Freddie Prinze Jr
Stephen Fry
Zooey Deschanel

I like *all* these folks for various reasons.
