I mispronounced a word today and people noted it. Sigh. This is not unheard of for me. I routinely put emphasis on the wrong syllables because I learned a lot of words from reading, not in conversation. But I’ll probably never say that word again in public. 😔

I had a dream last night that put me in the kind of mood where I pondered what-ifs all day and read poetry and basically couldn’t stand myself. Hoping for less drama in tonight’s slumber.

Finished all of the audio versions of books by @Caimh and missed his characters so much that I restarted the Dublin trilogy again. Except I’m doing the prequels first. I love having Bunny back in my life.

#Jeopardy gives me so much joy right now. @KenJennings has a love for the game that shines through, and @mattearoach is such fun to watch.

Someone told me that they love Dave Grohl but “don’t get what the Foo Fighters are going for,” and I’m still confused, angry and sad all at once. So I listened to the Foo Fighters.

I’m the weirdo patient who emailed her surgeon’s office today requesting links to any research studies linking weight-loss surgery to the desire to change other big shit in your life and if my brain can be relied on to make decisions or if I need to wait.

Also applies to work teams.

How many life changes are too many in one year? Asking for a friend.

Read something today intended for the deaf and hard-of-hearing population that said “attendees will hear from students…” and this is why we need editors.

I’m sure it’s completely normal that I decided to go through my entire wardrobe at 1 am to sort out what fits and what doesn’t. Completely sane, rational behavior. #nightowl #revengeprocrastination

Same. I thrive on sunshine. I should probably leave Pittsburgh.

I majored in English. One of the worst things you can ask me to do is review a spreadsheet with 5700 rows.

Two episodes of #ReacherOnPrime + two of @inagarten seems like the perfect combination of violence and chill relaxation. Balance in all things, even in a Friday night.

This! I remember looking for jobs and apartments in Savannah one winter and I think it was seasonal depression talking.

Watched four episodes of “Reacher” tonight. I’m sure my dreams will all be about puppies and rainbows. 😳 (Watching him in action is so different than reading, but I still like it! Just a bit more gruesome.) #ReacherOnPrime #Reacher

One of the hazards of reading a LOT of murder mysteries: when you finally pick up some other genre, you’re always waiting for someone to bite it. #Reading

Same same same.

Woke up to frozen pipes but had two meetings close together. Set up a basement space heater during a break, but was so upset in meeting 2 that I said out loud “I can’t believe we’re actually sitting here discussing such trivial minutiae” as I rubbed my temples. Oops. #burnout

I don’t think people “don’t want to work.” I think they don’t want to feel like their jobs own them, and all they do is work to break even until they die or retire when they may be too old or unwell to enjoy life. That can’t be what all this (gestures wildly) is about.

Preach.
