I made the mistake of checking my email and now I’m just frustrated. A member is trying to tell me that we don’t offer a way to manage their membership and they can’t use our app. 1- this was after I sent him the link to manage his account. 2- we don’t have an app.

Just did the first pass of shoveling. Then I tried to bring my recycling out to the alley and discovered the latch for my gate is frozen shut.

Left my house for the first time in days. I want my Minnesota like I like my whiskey: neat, no ice.

Mother Nature didn’t get the memo that it’s supposed to snow on Christmas, not rain.

Welp I woke up feeling sick so it looks like I’m staying in MN for Christmas.

Year-end fundraising can be so stressful, but it’s nice to find ways to be creative with a colleague. Video coming soon.

I moved a workbench in my basement a few inches over and a pipe started dripping. After spending some time tightening a bolt, I moved the bench back and it turns out the pipe needs a bit of pressure to not drip. Temporary fix for sure but I’m not calling a plumber this week.

There was a woman posing in front of the mirror as I tried to go to stall just past her. She didn’t fucking move. And I just wanna say: fuck that.

I hate that I’m polite and will let a person walk in front of me. Men walk slow as shit and then I have to pretend to be patient.

Things heard at the brewery tonight: Why is Minnesota trying to be like California?

I got stuck at the end of my driveway because I forgot to shovel after the plow went by yesterday. I had too much faith in my little hatchback and learned my lesson: Never leave the house.

Eaux Claires just announced their dates and now I can definitively say that July 2026 is the summer I will go broke from music festivals.

Is your new year's resolution to make new soccer friends? IT SHOULD BE! Get a start on it next Monday, Dec. 15, at the Uptown VFW. Not only will SG folks be there, but members of the @mnufc.com front office — including CEO Shari Ballard! — will be as well. Show starts at 5:15pm, see you there!

Pretty sure they knocked while I was on a call 😭

Reallllly hoping these kids swing by again. I shoveled last night and it doesn’t look like I did anything today. My back hurts.

Just had some kids offer to shovel my driveway because they’re raising funds for some school thing. Considering I haven’t shoveled my driveway at all this month so far, I jumped on it. (I shovel my sidewalks but I haven’t felt like I needed to do the driveway).

In the tune of Black Sabbath’s Iron Man: I am the Cheese Queen.

Time for the real AWWWOOOOOOO

Early awooo??

Why it matters: The intoxicated suspect was a raccoon. I love Axios. They also used splooted and trash panda in the article.

My cat. The lovely angel that she is. Has NO idea about personal space. Tonight I was laying on the couch watching tv and she proceeded to sit right in front of my face and block my view. I asked her to move and she acted offended, as if she had been there forever. I love her. But god damn.

I’m pretty sure the person in front of me in the Taco Bell line has never driven a pick up, let alone a manual. It was embarrassing, and that’s coming from someone who has driven a manual 3 whole times.

We have some super great items for the silent auction! See you there!

Bad movie day is underway

Sports are dumb, friends are good.

This ref is testing my fucking patience

Please consider donating MinnPost’s local journalism! Or come swing by Blackstack Brewing tonight! They’re donating a portion of sales to MinnPost’s and Second Harvest Heartland tonight.

I’m very pro-bicyclists in this city. But it annoys me when I’m at a 4 way stop, look for pedestrians or bicyclists, start to turn and have a speeding bicycle almost ram into the side of my car because they didn’t even slow down or try to stop at the intersection.

Approaching 3 hours since Katie was cuffed and taken by masked federal agents while peacefully protesting and filming today and our lawyers still can’t get anyone to tell us where they actually took her. Fucking absurd.

I’m back in MN and I’m not ready to get back to reality after two weeks in Wisconsin.

Give to the Max Day is next week Thursday, but you can donate today to help us get a head start on our $25,000 goal. Help fund our local news coverage with a donation right now. minnpost.fundjournalism.org/support/?cam...

Clouds are gone, here’s some of mine from tonight.

Me seeing all the amazing Aurora pics while northeastern Wisconsin has cloud cover tonight.

I sent this to my mom yesterday to get a chuckle out of her.

This is fucking dumb.

Watching my parents try to find shows without understanding how the Apple TV remote or app works is incredibly frustrating.

Disappointment in 8 minutes: the MNUFC story

Finishing a book that has a character caring for her aging parents the day before you drive back home to care for your own aging parents is a bad idea.

Ellie just spent 5 minutes making biscuits on my left leg just to climb up and sit on my belly. This cat is too cute.

Had 8 total trick or treaters and half of them took a duck!

Got my first 4 trick or treaters. Gave them choices of candy or lil rubber ducks and one kid was like “ducks all the way”. The kids are alright.

Ellie is always inventing new ways to wear her costumes. What an icon.

I just saw a mouse in my kitchen so I’m giving Ellie a pep talk and trying to remind her that she killed one two years ago.

These last 2 weeks have been hell. First my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Next, my sister broke her elbow. And during this time my dad has fallen twice, with him now in the hospital with a severely sprained ankle, bruised bones and unable to put weight on either foot. Please send good vibes.

@blackhartstp.com basement Dayne says let’s fucking go tonight, loons! 🖤💙🖤💙🖤

More weddings need cheese fountains.

I went to spirit Halloween tonight, along with everyone else in Roseville apparently. Superrrr long lines.

He is 20+ years my elder. Which isn’t necessarily a no but he isn’t giving me anything.

A guy is trying to hit on me while I’m very obviously reading a book on my phone. I hate this.
