i took my garbage and recycling to the curb and couldn't help but admire how cozy my house looks in the snow.

relevant again... please let kazuki have one good free skate, he deserves it 🥺

jin boyang stepping onto the ice at 4CC accompanied by a picture of him holding up a picture of his cat... i hope he never retires.

i can't explain it to you, but the way my work BFF and i text each other hot takes about our secret nemesis at the museum across the street is so wholesome, actually.

i made an actually useful “how to tell apart figure skating jumps” diagram because normal people have no idea what an inside landing edge is

“Cant sleep… i’ll just have a quick look at my phone”

i can guarantee that any small-talk discussion of the weather at this time of year will either lead to me oversharing about ice skating outside or salamander migration. pick your special interest, there is no escape!

crying a little over jason brown commenting support on kevin's post about melting down at euros. my two back-to-back heartbreaks. but you can't help but love 'em.

Holy fucking shit this is awesome use this now cybernews.com/security/dev...

i know i have the culinary taste of a pre-teen after school, but goddamn those microwavable vegetarian taquitos were so fucking good.

do i take a warm bubble bath before or after dinner.... hmmm...

i found really great pieces of furniture on my adventure with my friend today. we went to five thrift/antique stores, but only found items at the first and the last. i'm so happy. (the lamp, nightstand, and moth table)

not bolero playing on my classical playlist right now. 😭 (iykyk 💔)

between adam's injury and kevin's meltdown, the french federation is probably feeling preeeeeeeeeeetty nervous about milan.

i didn't watch everyone because i lost the heart for it, but here are my highlights from the men's short program: - ean weiler's debut - the selevbros absolutely nailing it - deniss back with stephane and more polished than i've seen him all season

no one talk to me about kevin aymoz unless you're willing to hold my hand as i sob into this apple pie. my sweet beloved boy. 😭😭😭

locking in with my old friend, the pomodoro method. if i don't finish these exhibit signs today, they should fire me, i swear to god. the amount i've been procrastinating is criminal.

BREAKING NEWS: i have acquired a new mattress!! 😭😭😭 gonna sleep on the decades-old guest bed one more night, and then i can starfish to my heart's content!!!

i've been awake for hours but i just remembered i dreamed about the creative writing teacher i'm pretty sure was grooming me in high school. well, that explains how off i've felt all morning...

the first paragraph of this book: "agnes was not carrying an umbrella" the fifth paragraph of this book: "melinda takes agnes's sopping coat and umbrella"

Max earned the spot with his skating this season, not his personal tragedy. I think Scott Hamilton's intro was inappropriate given how every other skater is being introed. I hope NBC eases up a bit in Milan but I unfortunately expect a double down... #PrevagenUSChamps

quad this, quad that. i'm really, really sad about jason, but if there's any silver lining about the future for me, it's that jacob sanchez skated beautifully and consistently across both programs and won the pewter medal without a quad.

Americans will use anything but the metric system #figureskating

it was energizing to dredge up all my old feelings towards evan lysacek and project them onto someone else, but then the rest of that happened and it was no longer funny

i love our olympic team so much and i want a million press videos of amber lovingly herding these cats

my favorite women's costumes at us nationals: 1) sophie joline von felten free skate (her music medley escapes me) 2) isabeau levito cinema paradiso 3) sarah everhardt riverdance 4) alysa liu lady gaga*

just had the most unpleasant bagel eating experience, and it wasn't even the bagel's fault. i am simply too tired to chew that much 😔

still feeling sad and betrayed about what happened at work yesterday. i honestly don't care about the result, it's the way it happened, and it made me feel so abandoned and alone. and the ending wrap up about how "this is what community is, so thank you for having a hard conversation" didn't help.

just had a wee meltdown in tumblr tags about ilia malinin. #PrevagenUSChamps

today sucked, i'm taking a shower and ordering a burrito. nothing else stupid is allowed to happen because i already cried at work. that's the rule!

stop what you're doing and let Amber Glenn take you to church #USPrevagenChamps #figureskating

(me every winter) I LOVE SKATING I LOVE DOING BACKWARDS CROSSOVERS

the rink near where i work has an adult skate tomorrow afternoon. i'm seriously considering taking an hour off to skate around in circles hahaha 😅

the ennui is hitting hard today, gang. 😔

started watching the apothecary diaries, i love women

I think it’s important for all the non Americans out there to know that Americans also hate America

whoever sent me a DM, i can't access it because i refuse to send identity markers to some random third party site, so you've cursed me forever with a notification i can't get rid of until i visit a different state! 🙃

thinking about junwhan cha's ina bauer

choosing to end the year with a bit of whimsy despite it all

made myself emotional thinking about kevin aymoz in 2025. from worlds to skate america to qualifying for milan. it's such a joy to watch him doing what he loves. 🥹❤️

72 pages left in my last book of the year. i can do this!!

OUR CEO ASKED CH@TGPT HOW TO DEFINE "COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP" LORD HELP US WE ARE COOKED

GOOD MORNING THE ORCHID I'VE BEEN NURSING FOR TWO YEARS BLOOMED FOR THE FIRST TIME AND SHE'S BEAUTIFUL!!

lake 💙🩵🤍

wind storms always make me soooo anxious 🥺😭

i finally, FINALLY forced myself to purchase a bedframe. it's not the company that originally attracted me, but it's registered with the BBB and has a lot of good reviews. shipping takes a long time, but it's not like i haven't spent the past 10+ years sleeping on a mattress on the floor.

(sobbing) i came home to one dead orchid and one dying orchid 😭 my babies 😭

The AI industry in a nutshell...
