Ok. I did this today because I am deeply weird.

this is, of course, bullshit, exposing our social security info by the by, and encouraging DHS to send ICE agents into polling precincts to intimidate/arrest legal voters.

Didn’t get something in the inner office mail before the driver closed the elevator. I was like “curse my metal body, I wasn’t fast enough.” And people were looking at meeee. #StarWars #libraries

I just spent time rating my cats based on what percent menace they are. Biscuit came in at a cool 98% menace cos even when he’s cute he’s got an agenda. Pancake is 57% but that’s because he likes to chew plastic. 1/2

I panicked and ordered 32 pieces of fish for my brother’s small birthday party at Long John Silver’s. Pray for me.

This is great. Live theater has priced out people who are curious but can’t dedicate that much money to something they don’t know about (and for some people they can’t dedicate the money at all). The arts should be for everyone!!

I’m trying to redo my resume and we hates it, Precious. Why is this so hard? I paid someone last time when I was better off and wasn’t entirely happy with it. It was a little too corporate-speak for me. 1/2

I’m having a post-meeting panic attack. I got everything I wanted in the meeting and the meeting went well. But I was a little nervous before, and now I’m like… panicking. Probably some neurodivergent thing. So annoying.

Tonight’s goal: leave an hour and a half early so I can hopefully find parking for Kol Nidre and then write HR fic in the synagogue lobby for an hour before services start. I am very normal about parking. #pittsburgh #highholidays #judaism #ParkiningWhileJewish

I bribed children to listen to classical music and they did and I feel like a good librarian about it. Every single kid in the library went to listen to the string quartet for longer than I said they had to.

I’ve had 5 cups of coffee. I honestly can’t tell the difference between too much caffeine and a manic episode at this point.

Next year’s high holidays parking plan: show up at 6 a.m. with pierogis and some Iron City and tailgate until the synagogue opens. The parking situation was nuts. Let’s do this like a Steelers game. Then do Adom Olam to Renegade.

Weird fact. My husband and I met September 11, 2001. We always kinda celebrate on the 12th cos, well, 9/11. Plus we stayed up talking past midnight.

Husband got into an accident yesterday and again today. I’m going to hurl myself into the sun.

Jim got into an accident. He’s ok but I don’t have $500 for the deductible to make his car drivable again. Life is just crushing me lately. Between this and the other crap going on I’ve pretty much had it. I have a long day today so I can’t even deal with this properly.

Sorry I’ve been incommunicado. It’s been a depressing week. Still in a bad spot but what can you do?

I feel like all I was put here to do is make money and spend money in equal amounts and never actually accomplish anything or contribute to anything other than capitalism. It is so depressing that I have no reading for being other than to make rich people richer.

The depressive episode is not surprising after the manic episode but I am surprised by its intensity. Shit, son.

Mania over. Now: depressive episode time. Love this for me.

We’re having a rough time again. I absolutely hate to do this but my bills are pretty much all 6 weeks behind and are about to get more behind. We make exactly what we need to live as long as there are no emergencies. 1/4

Took like a three hour nap this morning. Maybe the manic episode is breaking down? Now I gotta steel myself for the depressive downswing.

I was just putting on my glasses to get something to eat when my cat who is the biggest menace curled up on my chest like a sweet and innocent little baby who’s never done anything wrong.

My last Mac lasted 11 years. This one's in year 7 and it's already tired of life. The trackpad button stopped working and I had to reboot just now.

People tell me it must be nice to be a librarian and get to read books all day. This is what we do, literally and metaphorically, day in and day out.

Having a rough time right now and not sure what to do entirely.

I would like to thank the neighbor’s cat for delivering into me a bunch of mouse bones on my side of the porch. Thanks, bud.

Thanks to my menace of a cat for shutting off the TV and the modem. While I was streaming from my laptop to the TV. Menace.

lol John Shumway regarding people who travel 28: “you’ve been through some stuff.” John always has something to say about 28. He knows. I wonder if he lives on 28 cos he always has editorial comments about it being a shit show. #pittsburgh

I got pulled over tonight. Apparently my lights weren’t on in the back because I had them on wrong. I honestly have no idea what setting is on. They shut the lights off on Friday when they did the inspection and I didn’t realize. 1/2
