Just got told I was being selfish because I didn’t want to go to the hospital for a tummy bug that will likely ride through my system in a couple days and doesn’t warrant a hospital visit. When we got to the nuts and bolts apparently I needed to get better ASAP so I can help take care of the kids.

I may or may not have the most talkbacks featured on @ridiculouscrime.bsky.social Will I stop leaving talkbacks? Probably not. 😅 If you don’t listen to Ridiculous Crime, you absolutely should. If I could meet the man and lady host IRL, I absolutely would.

A poem from my upcoming project: To Bloom

There’s something about 80s/90s country that hits different than what country music has become today. Always an enjoyable little blast to the past.

Happy fucking Mother’s Day

Shout out to all the moms out there enjoying Mother’s Day by pretending to like the gifts you didn’t ask for (even though you provided a wishlist when asked), listening to the melodious sounds of your kids crying/whining in the background, & pouring your own mimosas. I see you & I celebrate you.

When my world feels chaotic I come to them And sit in their silence If I stay here long enough They come to me And speak the truth

Shout out to Duke Rodriguez who is challenging universal childcare in New Mexico. This is a lifeline for many families, mine included. Do not vote for him when it’s time. What an absolute ASSHOLE.

I don’t care how old I get. My parents telling me they are proud of me will always make my day.

I just wanna have coffee here every day. ☕️📍 Daily Rituals-Albuquerque, NM

Happy birthday to my Nana. It’s the third of her birthdays where she’s been out there and I’ve been down here. I miss her dearly. Here’s a snippet of a poem I wrote for her and my grandpa: I think about you often And what you meant to me And I wonder if you’re proud Of who I grew up to be

I have no other info that this photo but @ridiculouscrime.bsky.social please please cover this!

A PSA to partners everywhere. If your partner’s success at work or at school or on a passion project is making you feel inadequate then you need to hash that out with a therapist. Not with your fucking partner.

A PSA for partners everywhere. If your partner is working PLUS doing side gigs PLUS in school for her masters degree & you come to her (while she is working late after having cooked dinner, ran the dishwasher, & put the food away) to ask “do you even clean the kitchen?” It’s not going to end well.

Dang. Dat Nola bar bathroom musing hits deep.

Not saying I’m an insanely petty person but I do eat the good leftovers for breakfast when my spouse has snored too loudly the night before.

The fact that Albuquerque has a better ramen scene than New Orleans continues to surprise and delight me. This bowl of deliciousness is from Naruto on central.
