Rewatching Orange is the New Black now that I realize I’m fam and yes Piper is toxic but also the bi erasure on this show!!! 😱😡

It got cold again and I’m not cut out for this life. 😭

The polyamorous urge to ask your partner “Does your therapist like me best?” 🤣🤣

Seriously. I am doing this.

I need to start carrying around gold stars for every time I start getting dysregulated and regulate myself because ain’t nobody else gonna give me one. 😅🤩

When your car is so, so dirty but your partner loves going through the car wash and will be here on Friday 😅😘

Listening to an audiobook and hearing a neuroscientist mispronounce “Wernicke’s” *headdesk*

Message to all my fellow bi people: we’ve got ENOUGH problems. If you’re transphobic, gtfo.

You know it’s been a rough winter when it’s sunny and 50 degrees and you ask yourself if you can possibly study outside. My kingdom for a sunroom.

I actually found the flashcards eventually. And I did ace the exam, tysm.

Me: It’s so cold, I wonder when it’ll warm up again Weather forecast: F*ck you, b*tch.

You know that scene in Little Women where Winona Ryder is like “… my haaair 😭”? I feel that way about a brownie today. 😫🤣😅😭😭

Happy Valentine’s Day from me and these cuddle buddy bats at the Louisville Zoo. 🥰

First attempt at lentil chips! Tasty but not the texture I want yet. I need to make them thinner.

Same, Bus. Same.

The stage of grad school where all my social media ads have turned into school SLP products. What work life balance? 🙃

Step 1: make the flashcards to study for exam Step 2: misplace the flashcards Step 3: remake the flashcards Step 4: ace exam???? 😅

I love you, fake spring!

Took a stupid walk for my stupid mental health. It didn’t super help but the sky is pretty anyway. 😅

Whoever manages social media for Actors Theater of Louisville is so fucking impressive at their job. And to those who try to hide their bigotry with the word "traditional", WE SEE YOU. 😒

Y’all, the SCREAM of JOY my cat let out when I let her into my room this morning. 😻 Torties 4eva.

Put our our new readaloud collection (Wonderbooks and Voc books). I’m librarianing the shit out of today. 🙌

Put up a queer Black authors display

In case you wonder how I’m doing 😅

Weekly little treat after my least favorite class ☺️

A robot has never made me as sad as when the Rally’s order-bot just said “I’m sorry but we’re out of milkshake.” 💔😢

Explaining to a coworker about why we already had multiple copies of the Newbery winner “I bought it because I love that author… which.. is not how you should do collection development.. but sometimes it is.” 😅🤷🏻‍♀️

When I’m feeling blue, there was a TikTok account I could always count on to cheer me up or distract me. They’ve been “with me” for some of my worst moments this year. And now they’re stopping. And I am blue. 🥺😭

I haven’t read any kids books this year but that won’t stop me from gossiping about the YMAs with my library besties. 😏🤗

Super bummed I’m in class this morning but will try to tune in for the end of the YMA announcements. This is the first YMAs I’m missing in years and years. It’s the end of an era. 😭

📚The #KidLit event of the year is almost here! Join us for the live announcement of the 2025 ALA Youth Media Awards! 📅 Mon., Jan. 27 🕖 7am PT | 8am MT | 9am CT | 10:00am ET Watch at ala.unikron.com or on the ALA Facebook page. www.facebook.com/AmericanLibr...

Aw, my first stress dream about being an SLP, how sweet 😅

Scenes from a morning walk.

Artist’s helper

Tonight’s dinner is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Got my hairs did

Just sang a little song about poblano peppers as I was putting away groceries in case you’re wondering what I’m like. 🤗

Okay, Past Abby who scheduled a grocery pickup between 8am and 9am so you’d get up and get going on your day, I’m lowkey mad at you.

Oh, update, it has and its laundry city up in here. 😅

I wonder if my washing machine has thawed out yet..

The worst part of a long distance relationship.

“You there, my boy, what day is it?” “Why, it’s January 97th, sir!” “Fuuuuuuck”

Reading a study about how SLPs got no preparation for different/challenging behaviors and programs should include a class on “behavior management” is making me ragey. Behavior is communication, y’all.

Something something meltdown.

On Wednesdays we get a coffee treat for surviving my least favorite class 🙏☕️💜

A little morning yoga with my yoga buddy

This. The fight over books isn't about books. It's a fight over queer folks, trans folks, folks of color, disabled folks, and every other marginalized group whose lives are truly at stake. Books are one of many tools through which these people are being attacked.

I think it’s very important to draw gay art and have gay sex right now. Give it a try, if you haven’t already. This is my advice for today.
