I don't think I ever posted my Halloween nails, cute little ghosty 👻 (also, why are hand pictures always a bit weird looking?)

I'm obsessed with Elizabeth's wedding dress in Frankenstein

I've gotten two knocks for trick or treat, one of them was my Liam 😔

Liam is off to chaperone & trick or treat with a younger boy in the neighborhood, who is also neurodivergent & looks up to Li. Li didn't want to him to end up alone again, like last year, when Li found him out by himself & had him join him. Off duty, but ever prepared Plague Doctor. #Halloween

Two months ago I got a filtered water bottle. Today I went to change the filter with what I thought was the included replacement, which I had set aside. NOPE, I've been using it without the filter the whole time. I wondered why the water didn't taste any different DOH 😂🤦‍♀️

Thinking about Christmas music 🎄🎶

Late October = 😈 season. Cheers 🍻 🎃

Tonight's Pre-code movie and Cocktail, Little Caesar (1931) and The Bronze Peacock. Douglas Fairbanks Jr. was quite dreamy for the 15 minutes he was actually in the movie. The drink was strong, but a pleasant sipper.

Thinking about Christmas trees

I think I'm going to make a countdown chart 27 DAYS #yungblud

Guess who has tickets to see Yungblud at The Met in Philly in a month? Obviously the answer is me.

If the request says "quick call", it will not, in fact, be quick

Can't get off this unscheduled fucking call to get lunch, so I've resorted to eating snack size Mounds bars, which while tasty, I don't think is going to end well

It's an, "I have 3 new bruises and struggled to put my undies on", kind of day

I found a Hallmark movie with Karen Allen, Sam Elliott, Sarah Paulson and John Corbett, about a town that has Christmas in November for a terminally ill child. I have my box of tissues on standby.

Autumn nights

My watch just congratulated me on my workout and getting my heart rate up. I was putting on an underwire bra... Though I'm glad the effort was appreciated by something 😂

I'm going to try my hand at crochet again. I have a new hook coming that counts and also has a light, because I'm old. This yarn was horrific to with with, so it's now a trivet and I threw the rest away. An exciting update

Weather this shit requires stew

Bringing glamour to Baltimore today

I've woke up to being 52 years old. Had a good sleep in, but breakfast hasn't magically appeared so can't have everything I guess 😂

I'm too old for this shit I'm too young for this shit Current existential battle

The worst part of living where I do now, is the lack of after 830 pm door dash. I miss that shit

Cheers birthday weekend

Current note to self

Grabbed the chili powder. Sprinkled it very generously over cut up chicken. It was not chili powder, it was cayenne pepper. A fuck ton of cayenne pepper.

Things that gross me out: Only washing the insides of pans and lids, NO, you wash the entire pan, handles, sides, bottoms Read a survey people don't change their socks everyday. NOT okay. Also people don't wash their feet in the shower, what? Bottom line, people are what gross me out

I'm pretty sure Keanu Reeves is not trying to play Scrabble with me. I mean he should, I'm a fucking brilliant player. This is not a boast, I really am

Holy Tuesday nonsense Batman, I'm going to pretend it's Wine Wednesday porch time. What a fucking day it's been

I need to make dinner but Ludo says nah, we're good here

Tonight's pre-code movie was Morocco from 1930, Gary Cooper (siiiiigh) and Marlene Dietrich (😍🔥❤️). The companion cocktail was The Legionnaire, Brandy, Dubbonet, honey and lemon. Both were very enjoyable. A little saucy, but honestly a bit tame for a pre-code film.

Friday

I start most of my workdays in my PJs, as I'm not yet fully committed to participating in life for the day. Once I've officially decided I have to get through the nonsense, then it's time to put a bra on. No bra = no commitment Bra = lets do this fucked up shit

I'm on Scrabble to play words, not get chatted up like it's tinder. Do people actually every hook up from Scrabble chat? That's crazy

Oot and aboot for a bit of fun today with the boys

On the upside, my car goes into the body shop Wednesday for repairs from the accident and they'll have a rental waiting there for me

If you're wondering how today is going, I just went to take pain meds and popped them into my glass of water instead of into my mouth

It's 10:30 on a Thursday night, that feels like it should be Saturday night by now, but it's not even Friday, a little bit drunk. How are you?

Anyone else live for the sleep report from their smartwatch validating why you're so tired as fuck? Just me? Whatever. I'm tired. My watch says so.

Seriously though, where the fuck are our flying cars

I'm tired of people annoying me

I call this piece from my gallery showing, "floppy calico bun" or "I've given up on life"

Thank you for the good wishes everyone 🤗 Sadly my neck and left side started to ache yesterday and it's worse today, bit of headache and such. Going to see a chiropractor, I think that is the best route to start. Annoying stuff but fairly easy to manage I hope

Siiiigh. No injuries. Yes annoyed

Yo

Happy Friday 💋🍻

I'm having a Dunkin iced coffee, anything can happen now

I couldn't sleep last night, partly because I suddenly couldn't recall if I had updated the footer on a document I distributed yesterday evening, so at 245 am I logged into work to check. I had. So I took a bath at 3 am to try and relax. Just another night

No ever talks about the hellscape that is Autumn allergy season. Just here taking "24 hr" allergy meds every 12 and still sneezing, wheezing, hoping my eyes don't swell shut.
