Dustin's valedictorian speech is IT. Love it so much.

Time for soft pants. Headed into 2026 comfy af.

Why are boomers so crazy about thank you cards? I love a thank you when I give a gift, but I don't expect one. Life is nuts. Give people more grace.

Gonna spend more time with friends I don't need to mask around in 2026.

Computer, show me the least important information

Hallelujah the cats are vaccinated.

No one is surprised that Binx puts herself in the carrier. She has got to be part dog, I swear.

Clearly, my anxiety meds have worn off if I'm making garlic butter and herb pasta at 4 am.

Paycheck hits a day early oooo

Forgot to take off 1/1 so just casually panic requesting it off.

If I'm the same person next year as I am now, physically, mentally, emotionally, then I'll still be happy.

My January nesting rituals have already begun! (My husband is soooo happy 😅)

Bugonia delivers on the weird.

Just watched a great Mitch Hedberg bit on this: "A gift certificate is a bullshit gift. What's a gift certificate? You take money that was good everywhere and you ruin it." 💯

On my way to the day job and you just hate seeing someone leave a dog outside on such a cold morning

Coma nap time. Never had a cat I could just pick up and move while she slept but then Binx is a bit of an enigma.

If you haven't watched Whose Line in a minute, do yourself a huge favor and go watch and laugh. Yt clips are really all you need.

All spare good vibes anyone is able to spare I'd love pointed this way. Husband just applied to a job very up his alley and it would be great to start 2026 off with a win.

I miss being able to watch, or talk about, football, without having gambling or fantasy mentioned. Those were the days 👵🏽

Updated the ole bsky handle.

So many delicious meals to make.

Today I went to the chiropractor (don't wanna hear it, I can walk with less pain bc of them), pharmacy, library, craft store, and liquor store. Will not leave the house again until Wednesday, when we take ALL THREE cats up the street for their yearly vaccinations.

You kids can't be inside all day playing videogames. Go outside and smoke some cigarettes

😅 @sasscarpone.bsky.social 😂

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

feels like every man is a sociopath these days

Binx is running full throttle through her circle tube toy aiming to come out the other side into a large paper gift bag on the floor. She has not achieved it in one shot yet, but don't worry - she is not discouraged.

Baffling!

Replacing junior coders with AI is a deliberate decision to rack up technical debt: bug-ridden, sprawling code bases that are impossible to understand or maintain. It'a a decision that ensures you won't have any senior coders in 6 years when you need people to fix it. It's eating your seed corn.

3 days later it's snowing balls

Every time they say "Charbonnet" I only hear "chardonnay" 🤷🏽‍♀️

😂😂😂

You can't make this shit up.

Now on to making myself sick with chocolate! We got a dark chocolate orange, ferrero rochet, lindt, m&ms, Reese's pieces, candy canes (several varieties), and Hershey's kisses.

I should get up and shred this pork but I'm tired.

Ahhhh, 5 days with no work and no plans 🥰

Binx is definitely part dog.
