The question everyone asks if you’re under 65 here in the desert is, “why did you move here?” And my answer is “ever since I was a little girl, I have always wanted to be retired.”

Recently I turned off notifications on basically every app on my phone, and it has done wonders. I’m not constantly checking my phone anymore.

This year has been one of the most trying in my adult life, however, I’m reaching one of my attainable goals of being in a parade next month. I’ll be tap dancing! Big recommend for having a silly goofy attainable goal in your personal life.

I’ve been invited to a Mahjong Club, so my ongoing work as an aspiring retiree is going great.

The weird lil lady in our house has an injured toe bean. Please keep her in your thoughts so we can get back to weird lil guy energy in the house again.

I went bowling last night and my feet are so small I had to wear the kids shoes. The kids shoes weren’t as cute as the adult bowling shoes, which felt low key like bullying.

I signed up for a county library card simply so I could request an out of print book they have in another branch. It’s the autobiography of Esther Williams.

Ollie has ringworm (???) and she’s quarantined in the bathroom where I’ve set up a kitty spa. Mood lighting, calming music, treats, toys, cozy spots to rest. She’s still big mad to be in there, but I’m trying.

What if I rent a party bus for my birthday and give all my friends an architecture tour of Palm Springs?

Living in Palm Springs during the summer can feel so isolating. Even people my age seem to disappear for the summer. I made it a goal this summer to reach out to 2 friends or acquaintances a week this summer and make plans.

Do you think Mark Zuckerberg uses regular texting to talk to his family/friends, or do you think he forces everyone to reach him via FB Messenger?

Today I gave one of my employees a pep talk about turning 30 and how my 30s were some of my favorite times because you still feel youthful, but people take you seriously because being in your 20s is so unserious, generally speaking.

You could have given me three guesses about which of my two cats would be the one to catch a lizard in my house and I still would not have guessed this marshmallow.

It’s 108 degrees and a weather person just said that we are getting a heat wave this weekend. Like, excuse me, but what are we currently doing?

Lately, I’ve been thinking about if I didn’t have a full time job, what kind of fun part time job would I want, and I’m really sad that I’m not a drag queen because we have a tour bus here and all the tour guides are drag queens. I think that would be the most fun part time job.

Having a midlife existential crisis at 10am on a Wednesday because I realized the coolest version of myself was between 2005-2010 while buying Rilo Kiley concert tickets at a cemetery.

I love that in my adult tap class, we are grown adults still calling our teacher Miss Jane every time we address her. Even in the group chat.

Whenever I say anything that is not glowing praise of Frank Lloyd Wright, I can always count on some middle aged white men to come and “well actually…” me about why he was a genius.

The box of popsicles has nutrition info for 1, 2, and 6 popsicles, so I’m taking that as permission to eat a 2nd popsicle because it was 108 degrees today.

It’s that summer weather now where I’m don’t eat meals, I eat random snacks throughout the day: nectarine, cherries, pita chips, cottage cheese, smoothie, slice of lunch meat, popsicle…it’s too hot to even conceptualize a full meal.

Why do so many people describe their dogs as “he’s basically a cat” when what they really mean is that it’s a chill dog that doesn’t bark. Dogs are sometimes chill and some of them don’t bark! That doesn’t make them cat-like.

As a society, can we stop describing fabrics as buttery soft?

I started adult tap classes tonight. I had to sign a waiver that said “I believe I am medically fit for a life of tap and glamour”

One third of my time sewing is distracting my cats, one third is wandering around trying to find something I set down, and one third is ironing. Sewing just happens in between.

I’m rewatching Six Feet Under and I’m once again reminded that they have a very distorted idea of Los Angeles. Nate just said he was going to drive from Glendale to Santa Monica in 10 minutes. Sir, what?

Sometimes I go to an estate sale to see the stuff for sale, sometimes I go to see a cool house, but today was a rare case when an estate sale had both.

In my goal to do be more social, I signed up for adult tap classes. Frankly, I’m surprised I didn’t do this ages ago.

Yesterday in LA: lots of people dressed in bald caps like Pitbull for his show at the Bowl. Yesterday in Palm Springs: lots of people dressed like Marilyn Monroe to break a world record. It’s hard when I can’t be in two places at once.

Some people like to wear a matching set outfit when they workout, but I prefer dressing like a goblin and wearing a giant visor to stomp around my neighborhood for a walk.

I got a notification that an air tag was with me and it noticed it first when I arrived at the park and followed me home. I freaked out that someone was stalking me and then I remembered my dad’s luggage is still in the backseat of my car. 🫠

Unfortunately, we had to get back on the elevator. In case you wondered what it sounds like when a 7 lb cat shouts at you.

A giant palmetto bug grazed my ankle and I screamed three times, then I killed it with my shoe. Living alone means you have to be your own brave bug killing dad and I don’t like it.
