The amount of times I have spent more than half an hour looking for a tool that I know I own is WHY I own multiple tools of the same kind. Sometimes buying a second $20 tool is worth the stress and anger of continuing a search that might take another 3 hours.
I'm listening to an "audiobook"—more like a radio play, with sound effects—and the characters keep referencing a pet named Pug, which... probably a dog, right? And logically, that makes the most sense in this world. But it sounds like a turkey. Pug gobble-gobbles. So I'm imagining a turkey. 😌
And don't even try to comfort me on this. This is like, supernatural levels of intervention shit,ike stuff has gone wrong that should never have gone wrong, like the gods don't want me to have a nice house and that's all there is to it
I'm getting really fucking tired of trying to be an independent person and failing over and over again. I just want to install my drawer fronts 😭 I've literally spent more than 4 hours collectively on one drawer, and I'm nowhere closer to getting it on than I was when I started. Further, in fact.
Goddamn, I wish I still had a heated blanket. Ever have those days where the heating in your house is the same as always but you're just extra cold for some reason?
Where the hell did today go
I don't know whether I'm mad at myself because I made a to-do list of 8 things and only accomplished 2 of them, or working the system because I made a to-do list of 8 things and so accomplished 2 of them
I really need to rethink my perspective 🤔
The amount of times I've wished I could just up and move to another country, tho
I have been to Home Depot FOUR TIMES in the past FOUR DAYS and I don't wanna go anymore 😭 someone go pick up 3 feet of 14 gauge electrical wire for me? 🙏🥺
*got goddamnit
Since he's still connected to the Watchers Council, I doubt his green card relied on being employed by the high school. You don't NEED to have a job to stay, unless you hot your green card because of the job you lost. I think?
There's something about being home after being away for a few days that makes me feel like I'm wasting time just sitting on the couch. I'm like, "Sam! You have things to do!" But also, Mo is sitting on my lap, purring, and isn't that important too? 🥲
Happy holidays, y'all. ❤️
Mom: "Do you know why we celebrate Christmas?"
Lucy: "Because Aunty Sam is here!"
Me: "Imagine if humans had to eat every two hours."
My sister, feeding her baby: "Um, my child IS a human."
Me: "ADULTS, I meant ADULTS—"
Okay friends, I need a recommendation for a notification app that actually gets your attention. I end up just ignoring push notifications. 😅
I would like to listen to the new Lubalin album but I forgot headphones for this fliiiiight 🥲
My niece is two years old, and boy does that girl NOT do well without a nap.
Hoping everyone a happy Thanksgiving, especially if you aren't clogging up traffic on the way to MA tonight 😅
I'm no longer allowing myself to apologize for talking too much. If you think I am, you're gonna have to say it. 😅 because it's silly to not allow myself that space.
(I will still absolutely be wondering if I am in fact talking too much, but what is life without wonder?)
I love that we have nicknames for nicknames.
Suburban area? Nah, I'll call it the suburbs. mmm, on second thought I'll just call it the burbs
Fully relate, I just went through this same thing 🥲
Who here only gets creative inspiration when they're astoundingly busy? 🙋♀️ Any tips on how to manage that? I mean, other than reshaping the earth so that days are longer. 😅 Love, someone whose stories are weeping inside of her
Person in Instagram video: "I just want to lay in bed all day and read!"
Me, glancing toward the book I have two inches to my right that I planned on reading an hour ago: "oh yeah"
Every once in a while, I'm reminded that I have a Bluesky.
Ahem. My short story has dropped. 😎
Under a thousand words, so a quick read!

I just went to Staples to buy a cord that I had looked up ahead of time to make sure they were in stock, and I was told they did not have any. So I went out to the parking lot, ordered the cord online with in-store pickup, and I've just been notified that my order is ready. 😂
This humidity and heat is my favorite, I love being sweaty
😂
