So Neptune moving into Aries in a couple days is no big deal, right? It’s not like the same thing happened at the start of the Civil War.

Pretty sure somewhere in Jesusland, USA there is a tone deaf church with a youth group called CIS Teen Chapel. I have no proof, it’s just a gut feeling.

Asked my wife to take my phone away from me earlier so I wouldn’t text the person who gave birth to me β€œI hope you die penniless & in prison” in case you were wondering how it’s going. Kthxbai.

I have lost approx 110lbs since Dec β€˜23 and am now the weight I was in 1991. Lots of therapy & healing. Bought Levi’s off the rack today and they fit perfect.
It was a significant and emotional experience for me. First time in 30 yrs I didn’t have to go to big & tall store.

Most ppl after gummies & a πŸ₯ƒ, β€œI want Taco Bell!” My silly self: β€œpretty sure I have the stuff for πŸ₯‘ toast. Where’s the sharp knife?”

Stay tuned for part 2 where I decide a microwave apple crisp is a good idea!

Had an interesting & productive call with the EEOC about my experience at @webmd.com and my former manager. Let’s see what happens next.

The level your music trivia level needs to be at when your wife is a 27 yr music journo & your MiL is a former radio exec in Chi & Det is unattainable 😱

Joni built me a Build A Bear for πŸŽ„ & when I press his paw Joni’s sweet little voice says β€œI love you, papa”.
Immediate waterworks.
Heart completely melted.
I woke up πŸŽ„ morning owning zero teddy bears & now own the most priceless Build A Bear ever builded. ❀️πŸ₯Ή

Aspergum - Wikipedia

Chatting with my better half tonight after taking edibles and managed to work a reference to Aspergum into the conversation AND in context. Please clap. #genx en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspergum

Recognizing & healing from this & some childhood & other trauma is why I have lost 100lb in β€˜24 w/o crazy diets or exercise.
I haven’t been this weight since 1992. So crazy but I am feeling better than I have in years.
Happy birthday to me (tomorrow)!

Now that I am knocking on the door of 49, I realized ago that I never believed. the religion/god/jesus stuff. I realized it was the only unquestioned way to be away from my family. I went to bible college bc they didn’t want me going to a β€œsecular” college and I had to get out of there.

Sounds like the password to get into a speakeasy. I like it.

I’ve had the basic idea for a story and plot for a few months and have been letting it percolate in my brain. Finally think I know how it ends and have it narrowed down to two choices for POV and how I want to write it. Writing it is the hard part now. #authors

πŸ“šIMPORTANT UPDATEπŸ“š

Hi everyone! We have changed the way we are handling the author feed!

There are far too many people for us to manually add each and every one, now.

You can just use #author or #authors in your posts and it will show in the feed.

Not fireworks, made the mistake of sugar too late and she’s all thrown off by the sugar crash.

Nothing exciting for me. Kiddo is having a restless night and has been waking up every hour or so πŸ˜•.
