It's weird how a state that seems to love white privilege so much has made it a finable offense to talk about it in educational settings. 🙄

I come from a long line of big, saggy boobed women, and I was recently talking to my mom about a reduction and lift (I'm the family holdout). She told me not to wait too long because my grandma did and ended up accidentally snapping her boob into a seat belt latch. 😳

Last year, I went to a new physical therapist. During the middle of our first session, she asked me where I met my husband. I blanked out and said, "23 and Me." Due to sheer embarrassment, my hunt for a good PT started anew.

In an effort to escape the chaos of the world for a little bit, we've been watching The Pitt - and holy fuck, I'm not sure my escape plan is working.

My new daily (or several times a day) practice is asking myself the following three questions: 1) What do I know to be true? 2) What do I have control over? 3) What choices can I make?

Just scrambled 6 eggs for dinner and felt like a millionaire doing it.

Guidance on OPM Saturday Email | National Federation of Federal Employees An urgent message from NFFE leadership.

Updated information from NFFE regarding the Five Bullets email from OPM. nffe.org/nffe_news/gu...

Yup.

It seems like the plan is to keep federal employees worried about their livelihood to take away fcous from all the other bullshit going on.

Nothing like making millions of employees waste their time summarizing what they did week over week as a way to demonstrate government efficiency. FTG.

It seems like the plan is to keep federal employees worried about their livelihood so they can't focus on all the other bullshit going on.

Yesterday, I woke up confused and stumbled around my house in the dark until I stepped in a pile of dog shit. It all felt really on point.

My child just told me his "water pressure is low" in our nightly game of How Can I Avoid Going to Bed? Cup of water secured.

Our little owl loves catching a warm draft from the fire. There must be a cozy heat pocket under that little leaf bubble.

Shoot! I deleted. I'm still bad at this. New pic. And update that this is my dessert drink.

Oh yeah, the "why and I so dumb today" thing is wicked, and I never actually pick up on it until the migraine hits - I just continue to be convinced that I keep suddenly losing it.

Oh, that's right. :)

I was there! He was also the first senior to start his standup with thanking his parents, if I remember correctly.

You all, it is *this close* to hot cereal salad season.

I tried oreo coke for science. Do not recommend.

I just convinced my husband that rosé prosecco and a Magic Mike marathon is the perfect way to spend snowmagedon 2024.

TL:DR Squirrels at Boise State are out of control.

Today, I was standing outside, minding my own damn business, when I felt something on my foot. When I looked down, there was a squirrel clinging onto my calf. I had just returned from Taekwondo, so unfortunately for Cujo, he got snap kicked from Admin to Math.

And the child woke at at 1:30 am last night and cried for me to come sleep with him, but my husband went instead. So it's not for lack of parenting that he forgot this shit.

My husband was just trying to coax me into staying up and "partying with him" (watching Cocaine Bear), when told me he was the one who had to get up early. I was so so asked him when he had to get up, and he told me 11 am for the 11:30 am massage I scheduled him for Christmas. Our child wakes at 7.

'Twas a very Idaho white elephant. The first gift opened was two boxes of ammo. My gift was a can of Four Loko, which was quickly stolen. My replacement gift was also a can of Four Loko.

Took my 3.5 y.o. to get a COVID booster today, and on the way he kept saying, "I like shots in my mouth, not in my arm," and then eventually said, "I want a hotdog sandwich." What do I do with any of that?

I asked him about it because it was weird (I was also delighted, but it was weird nonetheless). His parents have a hobby farm, and they get on its way out produce from a local supplier to feed the pigs. This week, they ended up with something like 300 pineapples.

My favorite event today was being able to explain to my neighbor the neighborhood text message chats that were occurring after his kids randomly dropped pineapples off on people's porches. He was both clueless and horrified.
