One of my cousins just jumped on my case for using W****Ap* and I am like babe… I hear you, but also I have friends all over the world. And guess what most of them use? ^^

So I got to work to run the board meeting and it got canceled on my way to work. Me to TT: how do I ask that they make this decision sooner in the future? TT: you’re being unreasonable.

I just realized I physically have to go into work tomorrow and I want to weep. It’s been such a bad weekend. I do not want to go into the office.

The noises from my backyard are making me all kinds of anxious. I knew this was coming but oof.

I’m so tired of reaching out first. May just need to take a break from peopling.

Well, another snow day tomorrow, so no work. Fingers crossed I can still get the plumbing worked on.

Sharing again as Kat had their disability application denied. They’re working to appeal, but in the meantime:

Was supposed to hear from the plumbing supervisor from 8-10 this morning and it’s 10 to 10. *sighs*

Full repipe. This is gonna be another year I have to give up joy to survive.

The plumbing gods are laughing at me and I’m not a fan. The nightmare of today continues. Ice cream for dinner.

Just realized it’s pączki season and my body is ready.

I have an adult snow day tomorrow but I also have meetings I can’t miss. Ugh. At least I can watch them and participate from home?

It’s sooo cold out and yet I was a little sweaty. Why’s that? Oh yeah, I remembered to wear my mask!

Hi, I'm Coreo, and since 2023 I've been healing from severe burnout and PTSD. I can't work full-time anymore, and I cannot afford my roughly $275 monthly credit card payment, on the debt from insurance copays, cat food, car insurance, etc. Can you help me pay down this debt? gofund.me/4903591f2

My ex randomly decided to email me (read: gloat) and I had a really dark cloud come over me. Then my Merlin, as if he knew, decided he needed cuddles. 🤍🖤

Holding onto my emotional support poppet of #johnthornton as I continue on watching #northandsouth with @tellingetienne.bsky.social

It is 5 degrees out and my pharmacy was all, “oh you want this med refill? You’re going to have freeze your ass off and come get it.”

Its campaign day and it’s been a couple of months. Nothing like color coding encounters to make sure my brain keeps up. #dungeonmasterlife #dnd #d&d

I used several chat applications, but no online platform had my heart like ezboard. My first exposure to writing RPG fiction, learning easy coding, and made sooo many friends.

I need more art for my walls. Ie it needs to quit being winter so I can go to artists markets again

Me, the sentimental hobbit I am: is it okay if I just listen to Judi Dench laugh every time I’m sad?

The politician running against my current governor (who fight me, but Pritzker is probably the best governor I’ve had in my life.) literally put out an anti-immigrant ad as part of his campaign. What a fucking winner.

You know it’s cold in the office when I, the hobbit torch, am freezing.

My river was the mighty Kalamazoo River. Miss spending time on her shores.

Finally watched all of Waiting to Exhale. Main takeaways: Bernie setting fire to her ex’s stuff was a beautiful example of feminine rage. Gregory Hines playing a soft and sweet character? 😍😍😍

When you hit the realization that you have deep ADHD overwhelm.

People always say "my cat is weird" as if that isn't like saying "my water is wet".

I slept in the cab of a U-Haul in the middle of a blizzard caught in the Tetons.

The wind and sleet on the way home were brutal. Second breakfast time!

When simple things like sending a message make your anxiety mean, so mental health walk.

My doctor told me to eat smaller meals for a few days to help with my stomach and broke it down as six meals, plus a snack if I need one. Wait, is she telling me to eat like a hobbit?

Doctor: get 10 hours of sleep a night the next few nights. Me: *cackles in cat parent disbelief* Doctor: I’m serious. Me: you’re a mom, yeah? When’s the last time you had 10 hours of sleep? Doctor: *pauses* Valid, but try.

Adulting sucks 101: I had to cancel the one self care thing I had planned this month because I knew going to urgent care was more important.

You know work is getting fun when you’re getting emails about mice and rat control. (In an office.)

I am just a perch.

It is 50 degrees on January the 5th. I know I should be angry about our Earth being on fire, but it’s a nice respite for a Monday.

Rewatching more Buffy with @petuniamum.bsky.social and the episode we're watching hits hard. It's amazing all the things this episode hits on that are still really relevant.

I feel like my body just has known I need more sleep since I got back from Michigan. I just slept till almost 9 and got almost 9 hours of sleep for the first time in at least a decade.

On a lighter note: Jeremy Irons on Law and Order SVU chewing scenery is delightful.

Cw/transphobia Had a former author friend tell me that me being nonbinary was just my ‘viewpoint’ on my gender. And even had the gall to misgender me after. We don’t support #transphobes in this house. Said transphobe: www.jenniferevergreen.com

One of my favorite prints that I have hanging in the guest room. 💙

Sometimes my nosiness bites me in the butt. Bummed but unsurprised.

I’m so annoyed that the local nature preserve is not public transit friendly.

I need all the gay hockey in my life.

It’s simmer pot weather.

First day back at work and I would like to request to be in a blanket fort instead please.

A fellow cataloger, Richard Guinn, died over the holiday. I never got a chance to meet Richard in person, but in our online messages, he was warm, kind, and supportive. His family have put together a burial fund and if you can donate or share, please do! www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-ho...

2025: you’re not allowed to have ‘X’ things in your life. 2026: well, now what?

How do you feel good enough in a world that keeps making you feel like you’re not enough?
