please give me validation for playing at my scary piano recital thank you for your attention to this matter

For those who come after.

Logging in to my work computer this morning and rereading my positive annual review from yesterday.

Husband and I are currently arguing and need help. I keep complaining that the cat keeps stealing my seat when I get up, and he keeps telling me to just move him. But that's a preposterous suggestion, right? Just look at him!!

The life of a showgirl

@regrettablyjake.com is still asleep after taking a sick day, meaning I finished a full pot of coffee by myself today, AMA.

Biweekly piano lesson trip. I managed to wear a shirt that *prominently* displays how sweaty I got in the heat. On the plus side, I got to ride the Pride train.

Thar she blows.

Look at this cat but ignore how I eat cheese sticks.

Oops, I did it.

Ugh, do I give in to the temptation to just buy this piano I've had my eye on??????

I love having a supportive husband.

Had a peanut butter and banana sandwich for the first time last night, and I think I'm finally alive.

It's so refreshing to have a supervisor who, because they're perceptive, took something off my plate on their own initiative because they could sense I was starting to feel a little overwhelmed. I'm thankful to be in a position where I can finally say I love my job.

Happy (VERY HOT) Pride!

My dream man. @regrettablyjake.com

Oh. Apparently, some progress actually *can* be made with regular weightlifting (though the light is doing me a lot of favors).

Oral argument.

Gays will be like, “She saved my life,” and it’s just... TC-14 from the Phantom Menace

Buying these stupid dice as a lil comfort treat to combat the economy free fall scaries.

Follow-up: this review influenced me to buy this stuffed gay arena cat.

One embarrassingly millennial thing about me is my music taste is stuck in 2010s stomp n' holler. :(

The gang's all here. @regrettablyjake.com

preach, girl

Girl, not this. @regrettablyjake.bsky.social

Looking back, I’m amazed that of all the branching paths in life I could have taken, and of all the choices I could have made, I picked the perfect combination—the exact configuration to propel me through time and space and intersect with you. A most beautiful collision. @regrettablyjake.bsky.social

It's a bit messy right now, but I'm kind of loving how the living room is coming together.

Any Star Wars fans reading through the High Republic novels? I want to like them so badly, but I just cannot get into them...

Ah yes, today's biggest headlines from the NYT, including the vastly important ̶c̶o̶n̶s̶t̶i̶t̶u̶t̶i̶o̶n̶a̶l̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶s̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶d̶i̶s̶m̶a̶n̶t̶l̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶f̶e̶d̶e̶r̶a̶l̶ ̶b̶u̶r̶e̶a̶u̶c̶r̶a̶c̶y̶ ̶ "The Sims" birthday🎉

lol jk I just put in my notice

Walked in on @radioowls.bsky.social and my baby girl freyja having a true grandma moment this morning

Tricked about 200 people before everyone else caught on about how boring I am.

I hope my PAX Unplugged girlies are having just the best time.

Me at the Eras Tour with only a passing knowledge of Taylor.

It's the four-year anniversary of @regrettablyjake.bsky.social's and my first date. Please clap.

I survived.

The day-before-starting-a-new-job scaries are hitting reeeeeeaaaaaaaallllll hard today.

Three workers at the plant store were *appalled* that I said we didn't need the new plant wrapped since we live just around the corner. They insisted, and now all I can do is wonder if I'm a bad plant dad?

Saturday morning.

Brewery Day with this incredible dude.

Submitting five exhibits and quoting the municipal code and state statute in support of my vehicle ticket contest. ☺️

thinking about the time my friend's mom sent me instagram reels for a YEAR because she thought my account was her son's, and i didn't say anything to correct her because I thought she was just hacked

Shows juuuuuuust enough affection to convince us to keep him around. @regrettablyjake.bsky.social

May it please the (Zoom) court

When in St. Louis...
