Retail Ninja Sales Associate Manager on Duty Retail Supervisor Lead Coordinator for Professional Wear

Storm's a-comin'. Wintermageddon? Winterpocalypse? Wintervalanche? I think most of the catchy snow-based catastrophic phrases have been used.

Hahaha, today was completely casual, though pancakes, laundry and makeup brush cleaning still happened. Lots of Terraria, a little ACNH and a chunk of FFXIV too.

About to hop in the shower, then hit Costco with the kiddo, who is bathed. So far, a most productive day.

Whee! Sleep= good. Too much gives you a headache.

Good thing they're not throwing me under the bus, but now I'm kinda afraid for my job. Goddamnit.

Tried something new with makeup

Hahaha, what's sleep when you have this for a companion? That cup was full. I didn't mean to get a large.

Not my house but I know my way around...

They gave me lots of coffee *tries not to vibrate through the wall* I shouldn't fall asleep in kiddo's bed tonight.

Back to the professional-wear mines with me.

Frack. Work has me on eggshells right now. Someone complained and so of course they took it to the top.

Looking at the spelling bee competition words, I think kiddo will rock it. Among the words are 'disability', 'señor', 'gorgeous', and 'artifacts/ artefacts'. I'm interested to see if there are any additional Spanish words ...

@chithemonkey.bsky.social is so very sweet to me. I'm a lucky gal.

I don't know how I just did that; I listened to kiddo and let them vent alllllll their emotions over what happened today at school, and I even asked a few questions. I commiserated about not being popular in school with them: they don't need to become someone they're not to conform to the others.

Dat fuggin kid. *Shakes head, tries not to cry*

Pressure on my face feels good. Time to sleep this off.

This is the quote.

Fuuuuuuck me. I don't know who I crossed that cursed me with a potentially dead battery. AAA says I'll get a service truck by ~6:10 pm. I'll get towed to the dealership, where it'll cost me $$$ to get a replacement battery. Because it's an older Prius, I sure hope they've got one.

Who's your favorite superhero (without saying Batman or Spider-Man) Absolute Wonder Woman.

Hmm, my dating life was relatively short, so that's at least one person I'm guessing, but of course my wife could be trolling me.

ngl.link/gosmrwngz Because why not?

I love looking up definitions of words; I always have. Some days you could find me looking at my parents' copy of the OED with a magnifying glass as a kid. It made a difference in how I viewed the world, and I think that's part of why I majored in language & literature in English and Spanish.

What's your WoL's resolution for the next turn? #wolquestion #finalfantasyxiv #resolutions #blorbos

All of my recent photos are of my kid,so no thank you.

Mammogram and dental appointment same day in March. Oh yeah. Smash my boobs and tell me you'll see me again in a year in any other context and get a slap in the face.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice in Chains.

Quote with your favorite pic from 2025 My favorite is my kid riding a hippo statue at the zoo. But this one's a close second.

This is a positivity checkpoint. Everyone who sees this: say something nice about yourself right now. I am kind.

Augh, therapy made me cry today. That means it's working; my current homework is self-care. That's hard for me, as I usually end up feeling guilty and selfish for doing it. Whee, learned behavior!

All I need is a mom-friend, married to a woman, who also has a neurodivergent kiddo. Is that too much to ask?

There's nothing funnier than hearing my wife and kiddo singing the Imperial March during bath time.

Black Hawk Down. I went because of Orlando Bloom. He is in a war movie for a grand total of five minutes. I spent the next 2 hours and 28 minutes listening to gruesome medical talk behind my closed eyes, and eventually my ears got covered.

Film you've seen more than six times.

Very very true. I'm so grateful for @chithemonkey.bsky.social

My kid just got an invitation to a kid's birthday party in June! This isn't the first time, but it's still excellent for them.

One of the regular store visitors came by, and as we talked about store related things, he said " I bet you're a really good mom." I didn't know I needed to hear that until he said it.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy. 🤣 So true.

Dee-coded characters

Post your favorite "Lord of the Rings" character. Wrong answers only.

I am thankful for all of the friends, new and not-so-new we got to hang out with on our trip to Philly and Pittsburgh earlier this year, especially the ones that let us crash with them for a few days. I am thankful for my love, @chithemonkey.bsky.social, as I wouldn't have this beautiful life.

If you see this, post an anime you love

I cut my finger trying to make pumpkin pudding - not on my Thanksgiving bingo card. (Actual details are not as interesting as you'd think, so I'll leave it to your imagination, dear readers)

I have a carrd for Athena, but not for Erenhilde. Here's Athena: athenastone.carrd.co

Looking at the VMA Awards fashion lineup: I've never heard of most of these artists, and frankly, none of the outfits really wowed me. I'm feeling out of touch and like an old humbug. *steps creakily off my soapbox*

So much damn work. And fires to put out re: biiiig project. It's so much. I'll be glad to have a respite after the holidays.

I've been reading Saga for the last two hours, waiting for my car to be fixed. At this rate, I might get most of the way through the compendium. Hell of a way to spend the day, so much for work...

I didn't know that Junior Mints got into the 'fun, limited edition Halloween candy' arena, but here we are.when you bite these open, there's orange tinted mint filling.

Someone thought my silver hairs were fairy hair xD
