Spent part of my afternoon darning and patching a dog bed for our very old, very spoiled labrador.
She had worn holes in it from circling before laying down and kept tripping on them.
Of course, no other bed would do.
My handiwork? Hideous. But she's accepted the bed as mended and I'm thrilled.
I can't hear Markwayne Mullin's name without a very twangy, Coors-Light-Commerical-from-20-years-ago "AND TWINS!" popping into my head.
Markwayne Mullins . . . AND TWINS!
...or "attainable." Dealer's choice.
Sometimes it's the only reason I make a to-do list.
Like, "I got a lot done today, someone should write all this down."
Sprinkle in a few very obtainable goals and you have yourself a recipe for success.
We went on the best walk earlier.
Hahaha the lab.
Our lab is on pain killers this evening for her arthritis.
So we keep looking at each other and saying "I'm not high, *you're* high" to one another.
The mams always stay the same lol. Although ideally, the grams do too!
Everything is horrible, so I will share the highlight of my day:
My sister referring to getting a mammogram as getting one's "mams grammed."
Just listened, great interviews!
I'd say I listen to too many law podcasts, but both OA and 5-4 do some great and important work.
That's great to hear! Just recently diagnosed, and working on the meds right now.
So relieved to have a diagnosis and a plan. Really thought I was just super depressed and out of luck.
Had a hell of a time getting diagnosed with Type 2 narcolepsy. Not a lot of folks out there talking about it, so thought I'd share.
I'd been taking meds for depression since I was 19. Diagnosed with narcolepsy at 38.
She calls her naps "sideways time." Heard. I call them "going horizontal."
March's full moon (the "Worm Moon") is tonight.
There will also be a total lunar eclipse, making it a "blood" moon.
So enjoy the blood worm moon, I guess.
Gross.
honestly, this goes in the war crimes prosecution file, a pretty clear declaration that the mission is not guided by rules rooted in the law of armed conflict
Hell of a thing.
Remembering a brighter, less cynical time when I didn't understand Josh's point so well.
There are some really solid "guy living in the walls" horror movies out there.
I think you just called out the root of my problem lol
That's awesome. I fully expected to come across one as a kid. A little bummed it hasn't happened yet.
Yes! I get it!
Mine too! I always dream there's one behind the fridge or stove of my childhood home. Brains are weird.
I secretly hope to find a secret passageway, preferably with a spiral staircase, whenever I am somewhere new.
Awesome movie! But we are watching Black Sunday (1959) this evening.
Watching an old horror movie where the characters discover a secret passage way in a home they've lived in all their lives.
How.
I walk the perimeter of an Airbnb to make sure the outside dimensions match the inside ones before I settle in.
Who is being foolish now, @joshuaerlich.bsky.social.
It’s been terrifying to have almost every year in the past 20 years be a lesson in how many people with power make decisions about who lives and dies with little thought or care or even a clear idea as to why they’re doing anything, and it’s terrifying that it seems to be getting worse
No! But I think I see where this is going, and I am very amused.
I had a microphone taped to my neck and some poor lab tech had to listen to me sawing logs for however long and write it up in a report . . . I am mortified.
The worst part of my sleep study results:
"Moderate snoring."
Right there in black and white.
I denied it my whole life and can deny no more.
. . . I remain skeptical.
I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.
Nailed it.
