just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 12/10/2026day three of running and it didn’t suck. in fact, it was good. all three days. 010
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 10/10/2026definitely feeling like i should have gone to audi, but spent $27 for beers and snacks instead of many multiples of that just to get a ticket. being responsible is overrated. 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 05/10/2026maybe it’s time to stop wearing the watch all the time. i’m tired of finding out i had a demanding day at 8:05 pm despite doing fuck all for most of it. 010
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 05/10/2026probably for the best this game is on the small screen. #thatsthespirit (le sigh) 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 04/10/2026talked to my parents for the first time in a month (they’d been traveling). and learned something new. so that was nice. 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 29/09/2026in random good news, saw a new-to-me bird today whilst running! pretty sure it was a black and white warbler and pretty sure i ran more today than the last two weeks combined. 020
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 29/09/2026turns out half of my amazon return can get dropped off normal at ye olde whole foode, but the other half requires printing a label and going somewhere else? it’s all the same thing. and who has a printer? 200
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 27/09/2026i cut the hood off my hoodie before going to the game. and i feel okay about that decision. 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 27/09/2026this is the quietist my seatmate has ever been. not sure if i should be concerned or happy i don’t have a headache incoming. 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 26/09/2026parkrun splits this morning were hilarious: mile one, super slow because intentionally walking at the start; mile two, pretty darn slow, but faster because running feels maybe ok; mile three, more of the same; last 0.1? dropped three minutes off my pace because i was not gonna finish over 40 today. 230
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 26/09/2026speaking of poor planning, i have a ticket to the Jo/Kriegs amazing race premiere watch party at AYA Wednesday if anyone needs one? turns out i had prior plans. whomp, whomp. #thatsthespirit 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 26/09/2026this whole month has just been a series of poorly planned opportunities. good grief. 010
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 26/09/2026invited a friend to the spirit game today, but it turns out i don’t have an extra ticket for this one, just the next two. le sigh. fortunately, she’s a fair weather fan and it’s gonna rain, so we’re just pretending like she was gonna go anyway. 000
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 20/09/2026well, we didn’t make it to the game because reasons, but we are watching the spirits in the hotel bar without even having to ask to have it put on because everyone watches women’s sports. or something. #thatsthespirit 061
just jenn @13jenns.bsky.social · 18/09/2026the washington spirit match against the stars is on the list, if i can convince them and the rain holds off and … 020
