I’m a knitting snob. It’s just who I am. I’m really glad your chunky chenille knits make you so happy! They’re simply not for me just like proper tension and gauge, plied yarns, and studied techniques are not for you. #craftsnark #ImMostlyJoking #StopGiftingMeChenille

Today was my last day at the company I’ve been with for 5 years. It’s bittersweet. I love so many of the people I’ve worked with but I am burnt. Exhausted. Drained. I’m taking two weeks and a day until starting the new gig. I’m going to sleep a lot.

Washing a full day’s worth of sunscreen (and Pride parade glitter) off in a Sunday-after-7PM shower has to be as close to a divine sensation as I can currently imagine

I know that it does more harm than good to contradict the perspective or ideas of somebody in memory care. For my part, I do my best to go along with whatever my dad says and not cause him additional stress Instead, I just hold that stress myself.

When I was 31, I moved from academia to the corporate world. I was the oldest on my team and the youngest was a girl fresh out of college. We all got along really well but eventually, I found myself casually at odds with the youngest teammate. She had a lot of hills to die on…

Rewatching The Wonder Years as an adult and there’s a LOT to take in. The poignancy of the time period and Vietnam. The actors who got their start through this series. But mostly, how Kevin Arnold is the blueprint for every asshole main character we continue to see. He’s the primordial Ted Mosby

I've had a difficult relationship with my dad for 2 decades. I do not like the man. He moved across the country when I was 10 and made it my responsibility to maintain the relationship. I had to be the one to visit him and any problems we have are my fault. Now he has Parkinson's-induced dementia🧵

I came back to roller derby after a 5Y hiatus, wavering between anxiety and determination, eager to regain a part of who I was and the community I loved prior to COVID ending my team's undefeated season. Then I broke my leg in 3 places slipping on my own icy patio less than a month into the season🧵

A broken leg is a character-revealing event for a partnership and I'm immensely grateful to say that my husband is simply the best. From three weeks ago he found me on the ground to now, he has been everything you want in a partner during such an injury.

With all my broken leg down time, I finally dug into something I've avoided in my decade of knitting: swatching for gauge and sock math. I made this w/o a pattern, following Kate Atherly's Socks 101 guide on the Knitty website. And would you look at that, it fits. #knitting

My main goal for this injury was avoiding constipation from hydrocodone. It took a week from my injury to have surgery and during this pre-op purgatory, I managed with Advil and Tylenol. Post-op was a different story. Unmanaged pain was panic-inducing and I had to give in and take the "good meds."

Going off hormonal birth control for the first time in 23 years has been a ~trip~. I wish I had done this sooner but I also would not have had certain tools at my disposal before now and I wasn't taking risks with my life plans. So far, I'm a big fan of the Oura Ring + NaturalCycles.

I expressed a strong opinion about plush bathrobes on Threads and I'm not ready for this kind of spotlight. It's not nearly as intense as the time I shared a bacon opinion but folks seem to be under the impression that I don't towel off after showering and I'm taking that personally.

I ate before practice tonight and brought the other 2/3 of my dinner with me. I ate another 1/3 between practices, as Tuesdays are for both the league-wide and my team practice. I ate the final 1/3 afterward. I didn't puke and I didn't cry, so I've got that going for me before Friday’s home opener.

15 years ago yesterday, I saw my first roller derby game. I've always said that in that moment, nothing had ever made more sense. I joined up in 2014 and I didn't look back until COVID hit. Everything changed, of course. When the league started back up, I was up to my eyeballs in my own brain soup,
