I just cited myself in an article bc I was building on my own work but the citation was also a detail, not a main argument.

We had a roof put on last week. I’m still amazed we managed to hire someone that accomplished this. Last night there was a windstorm and I had a happy dance Snoopy style that we didn’t have to worry about shingles flying all over. Phew adulting is right!

Dumb but also dangerous. I know someone who refused prenatal care and then attempted an at home birth unassisted bc it was her 4th and she assumed she knew what she was doing. She almost gave birth in the car as her partner rushed her to the ER and was offended by the lectures from nurses.

I was going to make the same comparison.

I think the answer is read the fine print bc just like people insurance there are lots of exclusions. Like it doesn’t typically cover routine check ups and vaccines.

Also, this is why I don’t look at Tik Tok. I have neither the psychic nor emotional energy for people’s nonsense.

1) define cute? 2) my mom often used materials inherited from other teachers for her bulletin boards. I also put them together for her in exchange for lunch at McDonalds. 3) what? Who cares? None of my memories from kindergarten are about the decorations.

I am wondering if there is an identity crisis that comes with the second book if it is a completely different topic.

My grandma read my MA thesis out loud to her group of friends that all lives in the assisted living home together. The comment was “this wasn’t as boring as I thought it would be,” but I think they were having cookies and wine while she read.

We bought one before we moved and took it with us. Stores sell out this time of year.

Wal Mart has caftans. I’m thrilled.

This is exactly the narrative playing on repeat in my brain all the time. I’m going to go take a walk now so my head doesn’t explode.

Which sucks bc that takes so long to check and scrutinize. I would rather focus on content but…well, you know…
