Just had my first eye dr appt in 6+ years. I forgot how tough eye dilation is. On top of that, I left both pair of glasses there (sunglasses+ reg) bc they have to ship them for new lenses, so Bostonians, if you saw a blue Jeep in the Dedham area earlier today driving 14 mph in the gutter it was me.

When you fall asleep mid-chew 😴

Did I mention I’m ready for Fall weather? #running #Boston

I just dropped an entire (unopened) bottle of carbonated water on the basement cement floor, where it bounced a few times. So…I…think maybe I’ll drink that one tomorrow.

Just watched The Sheep Detectives and was totally fine until the last 2 min, then 😭 🥲💙

A Sunday snooze after the longest night of the year.

Yikes.

Ok you MOFOs. It’s 11 PM. IT’S TIME TO PUT THE FIREWORKS TO BED

💯

Today is the 250th anniversary of Boston’s mass inoculation against smallpox on July 3, 1776. The city was effectively closed to commerce from July through September 1776. The mass immunization effort was cheered as evidence of true independence. Here's how I described it in my book:

I want to formally log a complaint about this treadmill coach, who is so relaxed on the job that her tongue is hanging out. 😂

Spooky season and cooler temps can’t get here quick enough. 🍂👻🍂

Fools. 😔 @grogufanboy.bsky.social @knockknockzebra.bsky.social @stickfigureme.bsky.social www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/...

Night night sweet dreamies You don’t need to have all the answers this week. Just keep cheering others on, showing yourself the same kindness, remembering we’re all simply doing our best.

These geniuses don’t seem to realize passports are for American citizens, when they LEAVE the country 🤦🏼

Happy Friday all! 😊

WINS THE INTERNET 😂 No lies detected here!

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers and father figures (and that includes single moms and pet fathers too)! Happy Heavenly Father’s Day to my own Dad. It’s been 5 years and still miss him every day. 💙

Women come in ALL shapes & sizes! We jiggle, we sweat, we run, we punch, we kick balls! Don’t let the media tell YOU what your body should look like! Be proud of who you are~JUST the way you are! #embraceyourself #Pinks

I had such a great day today with my new friend! 💙 He picked me up and we walked around the Isabella Gardner Museum, and then walked up to the Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) - had lunch and a glass of wine - and then walked around the MFA for a while. So fun! 🥰

Know what TV show actually wouldn’t get made today? The Twilight Zone. Half of these fuckin’ episodes are about fascism.

I drove the 400 miles back to Boston yesterday from my mom’s house. Stopped on the NY thruway for gas (UGH $4.57) and an older woman at the pump next to me had written WE ARE ALL IMMIGRANTS! on her back window. I complimented her on it and she smiled and said thank you. 😊 Rock on, lady. 🙌🏻

Runners, pay attention. This kid is on to something. ⬇️

Mom and I are watching the movie, The Magnificent 7 (1960). I’ve never seen it but she wanted to watch it. Anyway, I was today years old when I realized one of my favorite EVER movies - The Three Amigos! - is a parody of this film. 🤯🤭

I saw this post yesterday and can’t stop thinking about it. Found it again to repost so you can see, too. It’s…true.

I wish people would stop saying we (or Americans) voted this idiot into office…because I don’t actually think we did.

Omg soooo funny 🤣🐾

My mom’s pug Maggie, sitting at the door and waiting for my mom to return from her appointment. 🥺💙🐾

Carol Burnett and Rod Serling arm wrestling on set of The Twilight Zone. 1962

Afternoon siesta.

If you live in Boston's North End, please help me find my #LostDog Maggie! She has a collar with my contact information.

Poor Tessa had a few days of some questionable lower GI action. Not a disaster but not quite…right. Nothing a little pumpkin magic couldn’t fix. (Dog owners: IYKYK) #boxers #dogs #dogsky

The other day I noticed that the one car in my neighborhood that had a Trump bumper sticker…well it’s now scraped off. When the time is right, I genuinely + gently want to ask: 1. Did you scrape it off or did one of our neighbors? and 2. If the car owner scraped it off- what finally did it?

A lovely, moving tribute (thread) from the Boston Mayor in response to the firefighter who lost his life here last week. Thank you for everything you did to help our helpers. Rest in peace. 💙

whenever i think "i own enough t shirts already" i see something like this

All these memes about (fake) music groups dropping out of the stupid Freedom 250 concert are killing me. 🤭🤣

Massachusetts lawmakers just passed a sweeping immigration protection bill called the PROTECT Act. The proposal would: 📍 Keep local police out of civil immigration enforcement 📍 Ban immigration arrests at schools, hospitals, and churches 📍 Limit cooperation with ICE.

on this day in 1935 Jesse Owens accomplishes historic feat by breaking three world records and tieing a fourth at the Big Ten Conference Track and Field Championships in Ann Arbor, Michigan. wow!

@johntytheowl111.bsky.social I know you’re taking a rest but hope all is well. Good luck and have fun at the wedding tomorrow. 🙂

Beautiful day here in Boston. I spy with my little eye…

I love when USPS is like "your package left Seattle. It went to New Jersey. It went to a place in Virginia very close to where you live. Then for some godawful reason it went to Florida,"

I’m watching the Twilight Zone marathon on SyFy and have about 90 min before I need to call my mom; and the next three episodes of the marathon are not my favorites so… Off to the DVD set! Season 2 is SO GOOD.

Happy Mother’s Day to my beautiful, amazing, talented Mom!

Treadmill music. Omg, remember this one? 😅

I am so far over this week already and not even halfway through it.

Night night sweet dreamies Don't doubt someone at their best Don't judge someone at their worst. Everyone is going through something. The same applies to how you judge yourself Be kind, always 🐈

Ok, to be fair, I have BIG FEELINGS about horse racing and the Kentucky Derby. But HELLLLL YEEEEEEAH that a woman trainer won!!! 🙌🏻🐎
