Dog, or Muppet?

Live más!

What are these devilish little muscles right between glutes and quads and how do I get them to stop screaming at me?

The murals in this theater are so beautiful and whimsical that I'm little obsessed with them. The artist is Sarah Coleman and this is only one small section.

Goodnight. 🖼️ The Night Sky, Robert Ayton, 1965.

These tree roots by the canal today were serving up Medusa, headful of snakes, vibes and I stopped long enough to take a picture, but didn't linger, due to potential evil forces at play. So glad spooky season is nearly here.

he seemed ready to sacrifice all mortal interests to that one passion

We have both collapsed on the floor. I started off stretching but honestly I see no reason not to stay here a while.

Mile 7 in this 9 mile walk. I'm all out of ginger candy, my left pinky toe aches, and I haven't seen any attractive runners in at least 2 miles. Please send cold brew, STAT.

Gemini: Take a vacation from your problems. Your assassin isn’t in a rush.

This gully is always cooler than the rest of the canal path. It feels like mist amd smells like sweet grass and earth. Like stepping inside Autumn.

It's the third gin and tonic where you forget you've already washed your face for the night, and so are still wearing a rhinestone-cat-ear headband when you answer the door to your least-whimsical neighbour.

It's nice when you're neighbors are mostly squirrels cause they don't care where you sunbathe.

I was going to have an apple, but when I reached into the fruit bowl I touched a lime first, and I interpreted this as a message that the universe wants me to have a g&t instead. I'm listening, Universe.

We really don’t give enough thought to vampire dental hygiene. Do they still get plaque build-up? Do they use whitening toothpaste?

TGIF, Blueskiis Everything is terrible in Washington DC but we still have pop-up Salsa dancing in Dupont Circle...

My work break walk just brought me over the 50 mile mark for the Waymakers Mileage Challenge. My goal for September was 50 miles, but there's still time to put in another 50. And still time to sign up, if you'd like a fun way to raise funds for the Young Center for Immigrant Childrens' Rights.

Everything is terrible but I'm starting the day with coffee in bed and the windows are open and it's starting to rain.

packing kids lunches is always like, hey food—see most of you later today

The dog walked right over a baby rattlesnake tonight and since he was on a leash, we then stood with a snake between us. I silently screamed while the snake stayed stretched out across the trail. Oblivious, the dog hopped back over and we walked back the way we came, now infused with terror and

Big shoes to fill, but fine, I'll be your new Robert Redford.

Well, it's finally a real thing! Our funny, helpful, NOT-just-about-freakin menopause book about getting to get what you want in your 40s and 50s, tentatively titled "Midseason Plot Twist!" (we've been through quite a few changes), will be out in Fall 2026!

My students give me life. They are so bright, so sincere, they are interested in everything and want to know more. They are a goddamn delight. #AcademicSky

Maybe if I ignore him, he'll go away...

the thunder sounds like muffled stomping footsteps the sky is throwing a tantrum and underneath it i am quietly waiting for the rain to sing its silvery shushing song

A good day to watch Sneakers. Or The Sting. Or anything where you can just stare at Robert Redford’s face for a couple hours. He had that great actor’s trick of making his thoughts legible in subtle ways — that little almost-smile that lived in the corner of his mouth. Devastatingly effective.

You gotta flirt a little with the Tuesday truck guys.

About to have a fire drill so should probably put a little lipstick on.

I'm going to step away from socials for a bit for mental health reasons. Before I do, I wanted to say thank you for those who've shared their writing, art, photography, fashion, philosophy, crafts, cooking, cats, dogs, gardens, thoughts, lives, and hilarity with me. I'm glad you're in the world.

I read somewhere that when you’re with someone you deeply trust, your brain shifts your body into rest mode. Research shows that lovers can synchronise their sleep with heartbeats and movements, falling into rhythm throughout the night. Isn’t it lovely? Love is rest.

Revisiting a classic.

Our morning walk through a field of spiky things. Flip flops were the wrong way to go, footwear-wise

I know everything is terrible BUT my son just joined the cheerleading club at his school and said some of his friends "think it's just for girls but they're wrong" (and two of his male friends joined with him) 🥰

Oh, the potential!

Sometimes bears will consult with ravens for developmental edits on their screenplay.

The tests have come back and I'm afraid it's not good. It's the groove, it's in your heart.

Honestly this applies to my teenager as well. And me, frankly.

I've started researching eco friendly burial for myself and I guess this is me fantasizing now.

The first (and only) apple from one of our new fruit trees. A Felix Gillet apple, Lowland Raspberry. Tart-sweet starchy and delicious.

I have to help move furniture today but I can barely move or raise my arms but we're moving bookshelves so I'm gonna try.

I was hoping to see the moon tonight but it's completely obscured by curtains

But what if we didn't go to the party?

I did a lot of frolicking today. Jumped over waves like I'm young and twirled and splashed into the water. Even if I wake up feeling decrepit, it was worth it.

perfect late summer evening and surprisingly warm water

Sorry, just thinking about my dog.
