No, YOU started off your morning by leading your husband astray because you had your sib kid's birthday notification set to one week before the actual day. It totally WASN'T ME who didn't confirm before both of us sent off texts. Nope. Not at all.

15mo update: I've learned a little opera as well as some Broadway and pop techniques. I got to do some Bad Omens recently and we're about to start Florence + The Machine. I still get nervous, but I'm having fun and it does something good for my soul.

These are my parent's pups, Luca and Magnus. One is a sweet precious angel baby whose only goal is to protect his family, the other will grumble and growl at you to move until he is comfortably laying on top of you. I love them both.

I'm at a Japanese Steakhouse in Oklahoma and there are two TVs above the sushi bar. One is a slideshow of sushi photos. The other is tuned into a fishing channel.

I don't always judge a book by its cover, but this one had me downloading it on my Kindle immediately. I love the noir, pulp art style. The book is pretty damn good, too.

Two month update: still going to lessons and still loving it! I'm starting to get a feel for how to control my tone and breath, as well as learn cool shit about the physiology of singing. My last lesson I was able to hit high notes I didn't think I could/would ever hit.

if you get born, you deserve comfortable shelter, plenty of food, and comprehensive healthcare every day until you die for no reason and with no strings attached. that is the only civilized society. if any part of you disagrees, it might be time to consider whether a Cybertruck is right for you

Yesterday I heard someone sing a cover of Piano Man that was accompanied by guitar and here's the thing, you need a piano for Piano Man. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.

This narration gives me the chills. It was poignant reading it but to hear it... "To Mourn What They Had Become" from Throne of Glass, narrated by Chrisnaturallyrp on Instagram. www.instagram.com/reel/DGTDMPk...

Dear Diary, It is day 987 of me trying to bully my sister into reading a fantasy series so I can discuss it with her. She has yet to begin and is instead rereading the series she just finished. Why does she hate me? *Angst*

Today I got to use my teacher voice with some kids who were throwing food in the lunch room and caused the entire cafeteria to go dead silent in response. I was impressed on my own behalf.

While I didn't initially think STEM related romance novels would be my thing, Ali Hazelwood is proving me wrong.

Bless my therapist. I'm about to walk into this appointment after being a little amped today because I had more coffee than usual and I'm emotionally recovering from a really good book I finished during lunch and I just ate a piece of carrot cake I got as a pre-session snack because fuck it and...

Me: ugh, I hate rom-coms and romance novels because they are so cheesy and bleh. Also me: OMG the grumpy, hot asshole remembered her name after meeting once for a few minutes years ago and now he's going to fake date her! *Squeals* (The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood was good, y'all)

Currently watching students play Marco Polo in the library during their extended lunch. It's as ridiculous and funny as it sounds.

I'm pretty sure my family is why there's a limit for how many books you can check out at a time at the libraries in Tulsa.

A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was a DNF for me. I made it through the first two parts and I just didn't care what happened after that. Not sure if I'll try the next book. Alas.

Thankfully, my classroom did not explode while I was away. If anything, I walked in and it felt... Cleaner? I should go on vacation more often.

When the barista is also a book nerd.
A picture of a grande iced pistachio latte with almond milk where the name is Velaris, which is a reference to the city in the A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J Maas. I was wearing a shirt that said Velaris on it.

Please see alt text for further information.
The setting: a local vintage/used toy store. The subject: a doll of Steve Urkel astride a T-Rex action figure from the Jurassic World franchise. Steve has his suspenders, no glasses, and a smile on his face. The T-Rex has menacing teeth and spikes along its head and arms, and yet, the prehistoric creature seems to be as bemused by the situation as I am. It's red eye peers out with a small glint, but its mouth seems to be set in a slight smile. The tilt of its head signalling its acceptance of the situation. In the background the rest of the store looks exactly how you would imagine a store filled with star wars figurines would look.
