Silver dreams

Between the fires and these protests, I hope this year teaches everyone that most of the shit talking you hear about California and more specifically, LA, comes from racists and gentrifying transplants. Most people love living here and would do anything to protect it.

Oh goodness. Look at the riots. Guurrlll, this town knows how to riot and this ain’t it.

People are acting like LA has never seen riots before. Look, this city knows how to riot. Even LAPD is saying this ain’t it. If you aren’t in LA, don’t believe this admins hype.

Everyone warned me that three under three would be hard but HOLY CRAP, why didn’t anyone warn me about three between 9-12??? I think I might die of the sass. #parenting #motherhood

Shout out to the woman at my yoga class drinking an iced coffee out of a glass pint glass. It was 3/4 full, which means she not only brought a glass open container to an exercise class but also walked or drove with it from her home. Wild choice.

Teach your kids to cook, they said. They’ll learn valuable life skills and you get to spend quality time with them, they said. All true, until Someone spills and entire cup of lemon juice and olive oil all over your newly cleaned wood floors.

I cause one tiny little plane crash and cause the death of my friends and now the company goons are after me. Of course I have to escape into the woods to find the protection, and absolution, from my ex. #chaospit #writingcommunity #romance

I wanted to write, but didn’t know how in my chaotic life until I read something Diana Gabaldon said: she wrote in “lost minutes of the day” or something like that. Waiting for kid pick up, lunch break at work, ten minutes in the car when early for an appt. Now I’m four novels in. #revpitwaiting

A real life photo of me when we arrive for an 8am soccer game.

Me: son, look at this nice fleece vest for cool days. Son : I will never wear that. You might as well burn it. Me, over 18 months: gently suggests the nice fashionable warm vest only to be met with withering looks Son, yesterday: Hey mom, check out the super cool spy vest I found in my drawer. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Just had to bring 4 children to the dentist for back to back appointments. Apologies to everyone else in the waiting room who now never ever wants to have children. They’re a blessing. Truly.

Wondering if we still have a USGS to tell us how big and where that earthquake was?

Nothing like a Sunday night earthquake directly under us. I don’t think I’ve ever been so close to an epicenter before…and glad it was only 3.9.

Someone explain to me why in the year of our lord 2025 when we can send people to space for months at a time and talk to them via video, we are still reporting STIs via paper form via fax only.

There is an email is my querying inbox but I can’t bring myself to look at it. It is a rejection but also maybe a request. It is Schrödinger’s email.

My 6yo is discovering that live TV (nikelodeon) kinda sucks. We’re in this tiny hotel room and she’s asked 5 times how to skip the commercials (and also the scary and kissing parts of the movie)

Remembering the time at Berkeley when my professor said he and Ted Kaczynski both started as grad students at the same time, but my professor got the better teaching evaluations which is why he was a tenured professor and TK was not. And now many years later I can’t tell if he was serious or not.

Hubs is going over math with oldest daughter and explaining to her that she has to show her work and OH MY IF it isn’t his own chickens coming home to roost.

Recovering from a stroke, a jazz prodigy has a life-redeeming one-night stand, but when she finds out the same man and his ragtag soccer team are her only chance to save her yoga studio, she must decide whether her newfound love is worth the risk or is just for kicks. #2025pit #rom #R #WF

I 💔 LA

This was a fantastic water drop in the Hollywood Hills Sunset Fire from one of the aerial firefighting planes. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

On LA winds and the fires they birth: “The winds shows us how close to the edge we are.” read it: www.murrieta.k12.ca.us/cms/lib5/CA0...

Just had to drive home from a work shift (ER) and a pine tree fell right onto the 5 across 2-3 lanes of traffic right in front of me. I had to swerve out of my lane to avoid it. Home safe now and hope we all stay this way. I’ve never seen winds like this before.

I’m prepping for my 8am summer camping reservation attempt like I’m going into battle. Reading glasses ✅ Coffee ✅ Fast Internet ✅ Strategy ✅ Bad attitude ✅

What kind of middle aged bullshit is sleeping wrong and waking up with tendonitis in the elbow? We need a whole new system.

Our love language is sending each other photos of coyotes we see strolling down our neighborhood streets…

Last night, out of nowhere, my 10yo told us he memorized the Dewey Decimal System and proceeded to tell us the basic rules and categories while my husband, in his fifth decade of life stood there dumbfounded because “i never knew there was a system just numbers.” 🤷🏽‍♀️

Did I get 40 uninterrupted minutes of writing time tonight? Yes. Did I spend 37 of those minutes researching historically accurate blue prints of houses I could turn into my almost haunted house for a book? Also yes.

Once again, I am here to complain that the OG Anne of green gables with Megan Fellowes is only available in limited formats like weird streaming subscriptions or DVD. Why are we being gatekept?
