Uh…

Um…is anybody else low-key freaking out about the new Trader Joe’s Fearless Flyer?

I guess they redesigned it, and I just got one in the mail the other day.

רושם ראשוני? “Ooh, colorful!” but it seemed kind of thin with fewer pages than usual. then I set it aside to read later in bed. (Don’t judge! It’s usually great bedtime reading.)

I can’t believe it! Where did all the rambling intros with fun facts about coffee beans, weather patterns, ducklings and four-leaf clovers go?? Or the creative puns and silly wordplay? everything in this new version is succinct, matte-of-fact and blah. It looks great, but dayum, TJ, why you gotta do me like that!? bring back THE OLD FEARLESS FLYER!

I’m in last-minute vacay mode, packing and getting the place ready for the tabby’s favorite pet sitter. As Tabs describes it, he’s a consummate deep-tissue kitty massage pro. He’ll be the tabby’s on-site temp assistant this week.

I wish I could bring Tabs along on this trip, though. I briefly contemplated emptying my big green bag and trying to sneak him aboard in it, but I can see the TSA agent now. “Um…ma’am? Is there a large cat in your bag??”

Well, yeah, obviously.
