Could not be more accurate. • I cannot deny that I do and say a lot of dumb shit, or ask/say things that are not quite appropriate at times. • I need things repeated…repeatedly lol (#auditoryprocessingdisorder). • My brain interprets things way too literally at times (#autism). • And combined with my language disorder, dyslexia, adhd, OCD (and the majority of the rest of the alphabet of disorders), misunderstandings can be (ok, usually are) a pretty common occurrence. • I have a veryyy dark sense of humor and can find things funny that mayyyy possibly horrify some other people 😆. • But man, I’ll tell you, for my friends, I will go to the ends of the earth. • I’ve always been the one who is there and gives 100%, only to get, often times, barely anything in return. • I can’t change that I am definitely crazy 😂, but hey, it makes me fun! • And I’ll never change how much I care or the amount I give, to someone I love…no matter how many times I get burned for it. (And before anyone comments, YES I AM WEARING SUNGLASSES AT NIGHT 😎🌃. Why, you ask? Well, that’s what you need to do when you step on and break your glasses 🤓 , and your backup pair appears to have vanished 🪄🌌…Sooo, 24/7 of prescription polarized sunglasses it is—for another 7-10 days, while waiting for my new glasses to come in 🕶️🤷🏼‍♀️👓. Frankly, I don’t recommend it…)

The history part is nice, but there does not seem to be much effort to drive traffic to the location, and seems mostly a forgotten spot in downtown. My wife paid a lot to have a table there for the holiday craft sale, and did not even make the fee back, because there were almost no visitors. Could be much better with more marketing and new exhibits or regular events. The people are...

Like a native New Yorker who never went to the Statue of Liberty or an opera at the Met, I now live one town away in Connecticut and never went to visit the Marion Anderson Studio. After watching a PBS Special about her this week, this will change ASAP. What a beautiful woman inside and out, but nothing can compare to the voice that came out. Her rendition of Ava Maria gave...

Although Danbury is well known for its hatting industry, this museum reveals more than just that. Experience the studio of Marian Anderson and walk the house of the Ryder family. Learn of Danbury's role in the Revolutionary War and the story of one bad ass girl named Cybil. Overall, quick and informative tours that give you a glimpse of life in Danbury...
