I made Cauliflower Au Poivre and it was so good. I did not take a picture, but it was very ugly. Ugly but delicious. My kiddo ate 1/2 a head of cauliflower.

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

My kiddo’s class is reading Fish in a Tree, and last night she told me about it. She said “the girl in the book gets letters and words all mixed up like me. And the letters move around for her. And she tries to say stuff but the wrong words come out. Just like me!”

I’ve learned that I can trick my granddaughter into eating almost anything I cook now if I tell her it’s “medieval” or “renaissance.” We’re having the same beef stew I alway make, which she does not like because it’s not noodles. But tonight I told her it’s medieval stew and she asked for seconds.

There are no restaurants within 10 miles of my place that serve Egg Foo Yung (with the exception of one place that charges $26) and it’s a travesty. This city has failed me.

Lazy rainy Sunday.

Some of my coworkers and I were talking about tv shows I recommended Widow’s Bay and someone else recommended Reacher. I said I don’t think it’s really my thing and she said “It’s an autistic guy with muscles. It’s the most your thing.” So anyway I’m on season 3.

I got a few people in my life to boycott the Times already, and I encourage all you cis folks to do the same. I get that you like Connections and Wordle and the actually good game, Spelling Bee, but you can find other games. Trans lives are more important.

Libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong. Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon. 📚 What’s checked out on your card right now?

I’m very seriously considering going back to school for an engineering degree. At almost 58. So I’d be 62 when I graduate. I’ve already been in a STEM field for 12 years with no degree, I just feel trapped.

I’m atheist but I still have enough lingering religious trauma AND have watched enough horror movies that when my kiddo asked for an Ouija board yesterday I said, “No.” I’ve had enough bat-shit crazy happen in the last 6 years, I’m not also risking opening a demon day spa.

Went to Knott’s Berry Farm, saw people getting out of their cars to fight over parking spots. Immediately left & took my kiddo to the movies instead. We saw Minions & Monsters and the “sly” adult humor in it is not very sly. There were a couple scenes that made my granddaughter go “Hey! Yo, what?”

There is a woman at work who, when she is sick, coughs all over everything and doesn’t cover her mouth. I already wear a mask (even in the clean room these days). I went to management and asked them to address it. She’s contaminating parts and spreading a virus. ⬇️

as a committed centrist, it saddens me that both parties are falling captive to their extremes - the right to insurrectionist cultists who want to invade american cities, and the left to socialists who want better bus service

Much appreciation to the people that have been subscribing and helping us spread the word. Improving staff pay isn't something that's typically a big motivator, so it means a lot to see so many people getting behind the goal.

Imagine if you will, you’re quietly reading The Last Heir to the Blackwood Library, and a child snuggles up to you, gets right up near your ear … and proceeds to make a noise that sounds like a Conehead is banging a goat.

Your reminder that fairy tales are full of stepmothers because women once routinely died in childbirth, from postpartum sepsis, or from other infectious diseases and left behind housefuls of motherless children. Stable nuclear families are made possible by vaccines, antibiotics, and safe abortions.

I survived 5 hours of Soak City (with my granddaughter) today. Surprisingly their fish and chips were decent. My gd’s hamburger did not have “the magic,” she said. I’m now in the bath at home soaking off other people’s butt water & asking the universe to let my sunscreen barrier protect me.

The funniest part of my morning is my dog trying to husky wail at me, and when I say, “shush it’s too early,” she does one last quiet one like a teenager getting in the last word. Then my cat starts in and meeeoooww-wow-wows at me which is quieter but 💯 trying to copy my dogs noise.

CVS is out of progesterone and I’ve been off the HRT for a week and a half. No biggie because I’m still sleeping through the night. (No, I’m not.) And not about crying about stuff that happened 20 years ago. (Yes, I am.) Definitely don’t have brain fog. (Yes, I do.)

Masters of the Universe was a delight. Despite Jared Leto. If he’s stopping you from seeing it, you don’t see his face and they changed his voice so it’s easy to pretend it’s not him.
