In retrospect I probably should have turned the audiobook off before rolling down the window, but now that other church member, who was helpfully informing me that the cookies were sold out, got to hear the bit of smut involving cock rings.

Why do I feel a big puffy sleeve knitting era coming on for me.

So the spring concert theme is supposed to be Americana and judging by the discussion four of us had last night, they might be down a lot of people -- or at least a lot of sopranos (which, honestly, might improve the balance). But yeah, feels a little icky at the moment.

The Playboy of the Western World. So excited and happy for everyone who gets to see this. It looks amazing!

I killed my grad-school issued don't-kill-yourself succulent by leaving it in the un-insulated mud room, which kind of feels like bad luck. It was 7 years old though, so maybe that counts.

Survived both performances and all three rehearsals today. Yay December.

Got to explain to my mother what Sapphic means over breakfast this morning 😂

peneloise doodle with their puffy coatssssss cause brrr

The person with my name in New Jersey, who doesn't know her own email address, has now signed her son up for the spelling bee. Unfortunately, I received the word list, not them, so I'm not sure how prepared he is going to be.

Pulled myself a baking rack off the side of the road.

My annual workplace violence training is due on Christmas day and that struck me as ridiculously funny this morning when I got the email.

Cleaning out the garden for the winter and found another pumpkin. So the volunteer pumpkin plant produced three.

Made it to today before spilling coffee on my yearly planner, so I think that is quite a feat.

#nicolacoughlan posting images from rehearsal of The Playboy of the Western World. If only some witchcraft could teleport us over to the UK! But "all will be well", we will just live vicariously through those who get to see this.

😳

Whoo! All flights back made it and I did not have to do a two day road trip ordeal with my co workers. I’m not sure how many of us would have survived that.

Always fun when the pilot announces there is a security problem so you are landing at a different airport than the one on your ticket. Second leg of the journey has been postponed by 7 hours.

Got to love when the anniversaries come with presents!

Heart attack for the day. I heard tire squealing and thought one of the corner bike kids got hit by a car. Actually his friend had accidentally cut him off and he ran into the stop sign. So I got to do my first neighborhood patch up job.

You know the party is serious when I break out the false eyelashes.

Haha.

not to call him a liar but its actually physical touch

I got a million problems; what people buy with SNAP cards ain’t one of them. Everyone should police their Congressmen the way they police total fucking strangers at the grocery store: we’d actually be better off for it!

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

I broke down and turned on the heat. Almost made it to November.

Fuck ChatGPT. Fuck Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and the rest of the techno-fascist psychopathic billionaire lot. Fuck their white supremacist, authoritarian, and AI-slop dystopian vision of the world. People and planet over profit.

I lost this round of yarn chicken.

Was asked if the milk from my milk man is raw in a work meeting today. My answer was 'no, I believe in not getting Brucellosis' because I watch, possibly too much, #acgas. Also, worried that my hospital college sounded a little too interested in raw milk.

Currently my potato salad has purple, yellow, and red potatoes + dragon tongue beans. Does it need some tomatoes, some kalamata olives, or both?

Finally reading the magazine that my brother’s father in law stole from a Nantucket urgent care for me because it had an article about shore birds and he knew I like birds.

I had a mystery cross-stitch pattern arrive in my mailbox. No idea who might have sent it.

James Herriot taking on the mob was not on my bingo card.

How did they know my favorite genres?

This bilingual (French and English) wedding has been amazing! Always stronger together. (And can I say, the Swiss contingent has been much louder than the Americans, though that could just be my reserved family)

Just when I was stressing about having nothing new for Fashion Friday with #nicolacoughlan and her PBC...She appeared looking 🤯! Little by little our #bridgerton family is showing up...Season 4 press stuff incoming soon hopefully!

commission for theedqueen Ben and Colin came with a perfect solution to prevent losing their wives in big crowds #polin #benophie

Somehow ended up as surprise substitute music director this morning. Always a fun time when the minister addresses you in the middle of service to decide/explain how everyone is going to do the hymn. What?
