my nephew told me that she had to go to the hospital today for some tests and he'd keep me updated and then he brought up his worries about my stepdad's health and boy howdy I would really prefer to not have to deal with all three of my parents having massive health decline at the same time

when I was in Michigan my mom described having what she thought was a short flu but sounded a whole lot more like a heart attack to me and I begged her to see a doctor about it. my nephew was there for the conversation and continued hassling my mom about it after I flew home so she finally went

finally got a patrick mcgoohan murder she wrote episode. his character's contempt for jessica's unsolicited help was beautiful

you cannot kill me in a way that matters

Geordi, no!! You want Chicago hardbop! You don't even know it, but thats what you need, Geordi!

saw clipping tonight. I would love to be able to see clipping every night for the rest of my life

wish I could get rid of facebook but I use my local buy nothing group and marketplace

seeing a lot of creative writing drama clickbait storyline posts about Epstein file victims on Facebook. like long narrative posts that read like the first page of a shitty novel. gross

spent the weekend dealing with planning my dad's long term care, flew home late last night and I feel like crap, and I have to wake up extremely early tomorrow to bus over an hour to do blood tests before I go to work. I wish I could just buy a car today and be done with long transits for shit

I continue to live despite my job's best efforts to destroy me lol

senate passed it, it's going to the house but it sounds like they're wimping around and considering rollbacks to it out of fear of rich people moving away

I'm not ready to go through this again

going to Michigan to see my not doing so well dad this weekend. I wonder if he'll recognize/remember me

I tried shadowgate right after and died immediately lmao

then I tried uninvited and it seems extremely cool but I was fried for the day so I'll need to give it a real try soon

another one

read the big sleep yesterday and then felt a need to play an old adventure/mystery game so I decided to revisit deja vu on nes. I was stumped by it when I was like 8 and didn't have patience for it when I tried it again in my 30s but I started and finished it yesterday. good game!

so much good purple imo

season 3 of murder she wrote has some awesome 80s babe fits

leslie nielsen loves to be a charismatic grifter or dashing gentleman on mystery shows

I think I'll make cookies today and go in early tomorrow

kind of forgot that I have to do a presentation on what my department/position does at the office all staff meeting tomorrow. not really sure if I should do it today or go in super early tomorrow and do it then

I have been cursed by a witch

Here’s what happened: I ignored an old beggar woman and she turned out to be a mighty enchantress

Her spell forces me to always talk like I’m on LinkedIn

Here are my main takeaways about being hexed:

socrates: the unexamined life is not worth living
me, examining life: well this sucks

especially if you live in cabot cove because the sheriff david the gnome is worse than detective gumshoe at solving crimes

I'd probably stop inviting jessica fletcher on trips or over to my house or whatever. wouldn't even meet her for breakfast tbh. too dangerous

I have a funny feeling that murder she wrote grossly overestimates the lifestyle, recognition, and excitement that comes along with being a successful mystery writer.

the number of friends, neighbors, and associates who are murdered or accused of murder seems accurate though

i like to think of the kitchen as the “food zone,” because it’s where you store your food, it’s where you cook your food, and depending on your layout it might be where you eat your food. at first i was annoyed that this wasn’t getting any engagement but then i realized that i hadn’t posted it yet
