One of the most bizarre shitty acts in an office is other employees stealing your lunch. Seriously, I don't understand it and why this is a thing. It puzzles me. Like, you really think my PB&J was going to be that good? I could've made you one if you had let me know! Who steals from a communal […]

I am certainly paying the price for staying up late and watching the entire Brewers game last night. And I'm not even a baseball fan! But I'm excited as if I've always been one. It's such a great story and so great for Milwaukee and Wisconsin!

It's like 55 degrees outside, gloomy and chilly. Everything is dark and the trees are full of warm oranges and reds with dashes of inspiring yellows. I don't know about you but these are the fall days I live for. #autumn #fall #wisconsin

It's one thing to be glued to your desk physically, but lately I've been finding my mind and emotions glued here. I'm being asked to do more and more at this job regardless on whether or not it falls under my workload. Also, without any talk of increased pay. This might be the sign for me to […]

@soaproot Haha that’s a great answer! I really need to start doing that as well. I never have toothpicks on me and constantly need them.

Omg the worst thing ever is having something stuck between your teeth and not having a tooth pick around. Especially at work… ugh.

Instead of working today I'm going through my old #twitter account rereading it all. Lots of history and memories on there. Always used social media for fun and public journal so to speak. I miss my Sudden Susan (my mom) moments. I used to post these all the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Tweet discussing fun stuff with my mom. it reads,

"Mom: OMG JENNA GET OFF THE COMPUTER AND CLEAN YOUR STUFF UP!
Me: Just a sec.
Mom: I'm going to unplug the Internet!
Me: I'll just use my hot spot!
Mom: How are you going to get on the Internet with a heating pad?
Me: laughing faces.

My mood and mind today is like a static television screen looking for a frequency to dial into. Work has me feeling like this a lot lately. Probably because managing these parked projects that seem to never shift into gear. #writing #wisconsin #jennalives

Back in Sunrise City for the weekend. Forgot how much a place can still feel like yours even after you've stopped living in it. You know, the 414 hits differently in September. After all the summer events, festivals and fun end, everything turns to an off gold and becomes a little sad, like it […]

@dm I had a hunch it was moving, seems like the midwest and states like Kentucky and Tennessee have been getting more brutal storms than Kansas and Nebraska over the past few years. Not good that WI is in it though, that scares me.

After this past year (today included), I've come to realize living in the Fox Valley is Wisconsin's equivalent of living in tornado valley. Any smidge of stormy weather has me worried for how wicked it could turn out to be. #wisconsin #2026 #summer

I went to a coffee shop today to focus and get some writing done, but couldn't help myself to watching a couple "silent fight" with each other. That's the scariest type of fighting -- where you are both equally mad at one another and express it through body language and cosmic emotions […]

I truly don’t believe there’s ever a wrong time to eat cereal. I think it’s a perfectly acceptable as a midday snack (Raisin Bran), pre workout snack (oats with yogurt), desert (cinnamon toast crunch), breakfast (Kix), and so on throughout the day.

I’m in my mid-30s and I’m not married. Whenever I tell people that, they always look at me like somethings wrong, you know? Have you ever gotten to look like that? It’s not very welcome. Sometimes people ask questions, why? Aren’t you lonely? Don’t you want a family? Isn’t it hard? Maybe this […]

Rewards at work based in the form of lunch parties from corporate chain restaurants is not really a reward. I'm grateful for free lunch, don't get me wrong. But I'd rather take an hour of PTO if we had the luxury of choice. #work #worklife #corporateculture
