I forgot about BlueSky again. But here’s Teddy.

My spouse is making purple sweet potato pies and couldn’t find the pie spice because he threw it out when reorganizing his spice collection earlier this year and is now excited by the knowledge that he can just MAKE HIS OWN pie spice blend. Also these potatoes look sus.

A bunch of purple sweet potatoes before cooking. They are shaped like dog poo.

I’ve read a lot of books this month. And I am well ahead of my 2025 challenge to read 100 books (I always choose 100). It’s been a lot of fun this year, just reading whatever.

Somewhere the 7 decent humans who actually qualified got raptured today and are laughing down at the rest of us. Good for them, honestly.

Watching people on Bluesky argue points on exactly the same side of the point but because their reading and social comprehension is lacking think they’re actually disagreeing is basically my entire feed. Tedious.

I was lucky enough to grab a flu shot, a Covid vaccine, and a pneumonia vax yesterday at a CVS location in CO. They had lots of appt times and you just have to answer yes to having a condition that will be endangered by Covid. Make an appt asap if you’re in the Denver area! ✌️

Someone asked me the other day what I’ve been up to lately and honestly it’s just work and taking my dog for walks and to play with his friends. Like that’s it. That’s all I do.

Today I am willing to engage in fights with strangers on the internet about the new pope and that woman who wrote the Harry Potter books so let me know if you need me. Otherwise here is a photo of Teddy. #lovemydog #dogphotos

I am a Canadian living in the US. Every social media account I have is filled with Canadian family members, friends, and random follows of Canadians I find interesting. Every last one of those social media spaces have suppressed any news of the election results. I had to seek it out. WILD.

We have the windows open today so this one is blissed out.

Honestly losing faith in humanity but at least we still have dogs for now. This one is correct to be so judgy.

I somehow forgot that Bluesky exists and haven’t posted in nearly a month. Guess what! We adopted a dog! His name is Teddy!

I just spent 45 minutes on tik tok watching some British blokes who operate a birds of prey nonprofit trying to recapture one of their more sassy owls who thought she could fly away and honestly it’s the best time I’ve spent all week.

It’s a cold day in the hellscape!

Buildings and a sidewalk with snow and blue skies. It is very cold.

That surgeon was all, okay well we’re gonna go get the O.R. ready and I asked if he had to go rev up his chainsaw and he looked so alarmed as if *I* were the weirdo in the room. Some of my best material, lost on this dude.

Also earlier I was doing dishes and realized the surgeon who did my husband’s toe amputation last year reminded me of the science teacher in Fast Times At Ridgemont High. This was because I was washing a fancy knife and wondered if it would cut through bone.

I have my books And my poetry to protect me

A big pile of books, some graphic novels, some poetry, and at least one book about Joni Mitchell. Some people call this a “to be read” or “tbr” pile.

It snowed a lot and is still coming down. I didn’t need this picture to tell me because the headache I woke with around 5am spelled it out. But whatever. Photos are cool.

Things I have ranted about during the National Championship game broadcast: President Orange Felon taking time to make an address and making it about himself. The way one of the Ohio State Kids wears his pants. That dumb Jesus ad with all the white trash in it. Stupid people.

Sitting here on a Monday morning trying to psych myself up to begin working. I am in a horrific anxiety spiral and have a random headache that flared up out of nowhere. This is late #perimenopause. Knowing that doesn’t help, but it makes me feel less crazy and alone.

Went on a follow spree this morning and getting a ton of follows back — thank you all so much! Currently deeply immersed in year end at work and trying to cram in the last two books to meet my StoryGraph reading goal for 2024. Here is a photo of Ellie, having had enough of people.

Just sitting around watching weird Canadian Christmas movies as one does and I just don’t understand why they’re all so bleak. Also the city in this one film was covered in several inches of snow ten minutes ago and now it’s just wet. This is all way too many questions to have about this.
