Morgain is living her best life

It's 80s week at work. So of course I had to buy stuff to dress up as "favorite 80s tv or movie character" and "80s film or music star"

Chuky and Madonna are at least easy, although Madonna is more expensive than I'd like.

Fun Fact: I work in insurance claims. My wife is in financial services.

Papa Snoop is a little bitch.
And he's too old to be scared of two women loving each other!

They MOSTLY adhere to the housing conditions I've set for our house.
As long as we don't see Arachne's children, they can have all the bugs they can catch for free!

If they disrespect the "invisibility clause" they are evicted from existence because my wife is too terrified of them.

I got my nails done in a bright purple/pink color. It flows HOT PINK under UV light!

Self care Saturday!
Nails done and yarn bought. Gonna knock out the final week of school then start a new baby blanket!

Like, who let me have my own copy of Excel?

I need help

I'm building days tables about a fucking farming sim!
So I can decide how to earn the most resources. In an idle game!!

Today's identity struggle:
When it comes to grades, I was always taught "anything less than perfect is failure"

I literally fought with myself every time I get back an assignment with a handful of points off. EVEN WHEN IT'S STILL AN A

Right? I can only vaguely recall just how much rum I used to drink on a weekly basis. I quit driving when I became diabetic and haven't really missed it.
But I wanted a glass with my early birthday dinner and...

I had MOST of a glass of wine with dinner and I'm feeling it. This is why I don't drink anymore

Pittsburgh and Charleston have surprisingly similar dialect. Then again, I didn't fully embrace my Pittsburghese until adulthood

I just sang this to my wife at the table and we're both cackling in public, like the weirdos we are!

I grew up on the same story where I live now. Yet sometimes I sprout a basically Southern accent out of nowhere. Because my Granny's family all lives in South Carolina and I visited there multiple times a year until my teens.

Deep philosophical conversations with my wife are a true constant in the universe
"Give me Halloween all the time! Jesusween! Chocolateween! Jesusween Part 2!"
Me: "The Return of the Christ?"

"I am the fluff that meows in the night. I am Catman!"

I completed the July Challenge! Duolingo

I was a busy woman this month!

Lightning strikes so close that the thunder is almost instant and we can't tell where it's hitting. Glad we're still in the car until it passes!

Nothing like going to the outlet stores during a thunderstorm!

Colbert comes out swinging. Gonna be a fun 10 months...

I have always loved Haring's style! Finding ways to keep it alive sends such a strong message about life and love IMHO

I learned not long ago that this IS a not uncommon response to the kind of shit I went through when I was younger.
That doesn't make it easier, per se, but knowing gives me better tools for getting through.

Tea that’s stored in the balls

Not me and @yseralotha.bsky.social being total children and repeatedly popping open the M&M tubes by squeezing them.
Nope. We're adulty adults who know how to behave in am adult manner.

Does anyone else have regular periods of questioning their very identity?
Not gender or sexuality. Literal Who am I? What do I even want out off my life? Do I like this thing or do I think I'm supposed to? Do I have any actual goals??

As much as I think this person deserves an ass full of splinters...
I'm more upset to see what some people who've always appeared friendly really think of me.

I wish I could spend more time with the friends I miss seeing. Like you!

THIS IS NOT MT FRIEND'S FAULT as they were trying to show the other parts of the convo, which were maddening in a different way.

The Hat Man's bullshit actions hurt me more than I want to admit and I can't seem to shake it off.

I am finding that I am extra thin skinned lately. A friend shared screenshots from a chat where someone talking down about me was tangentially included in the conversation.
Nearly an hour later and I'm still trying not to cry because some asshole I don't even like was mean about me.

I am DESPERATELY attempting to do homework and just...can't focus.

Send caffeine and days off.
