Legitimately how I got drunk for the first time in 1997. Del Rio/Acuña, not El Paso, but still

I think she announced it right after Christmas and it flew under the radar. But it does feel like some sort of dark triad situation going on lol

Look I am not convinced it will not be a cinematic disaster, but I think I’m still gonna have to see this Wuthering Heights situation. And maybe finally read it?

Don’t forget Karoline Leavitt too!!

I can’t tell you how many times I have watched right wing protests consisting of most ppl open carrying guns around the Texas capitol. Their entire protest aesthetic is LOOK AT ALL MY MANY GUNS!!, so I’m sorry if hearing about how they’re scared of ppl at protests with guns rings a bit hollow

In Austin, snow is not even required!! Or ice!! Literally the temperature is gonna be below about 36 for as many hours. I don’t blame people for getting supplies with our hubristic solo power grid situation, but FFS learn how to grocery shop lol

People who don’t cook on the reg 100% fuck this up every time we have weather below 32 for longer than a day (it’s Texas). Like, why are you buying flour? You aren’t gonna suddenly bake bread in the “ice storm.” I bake bread weekly, leave my flour out of it lol

A sentence just uttered by my husband in our hotel room: I don’t know, i really don’t know what would happen if you put bottle cap candy in the coffee maker, it never occurred to me to put bottle cap candy in a coffee maker

The first step to a great reading year is buying far too many books while you’re Christmas shopping, right? . . . right?

Look I love T Swift as much as the next guy, but I cannot adopt orange as my color for any kind of era, I do apologize

Look Dua Lipa’s book club got Percival Everett, I’m just saying sign me up for this shit

I think I just got confused about which one of the OutKast guys it was

lol he’s great but also it should not take 90 minutes to do bedtime 🤣

I thought that was Big Boi? But I don’t know, I haven’t paid *that* much attention and also my 3-yo breaks my brain daily

I . . . need to read this interview?

Taylor Swift: I’m getting tired even for a phoenix

Me: I’d like to report the murder of Joe Alwyn

I just learned there is a Bread cover band called Toast and I—don’t know what to do with this information? Seek them out?

Realized when I picked my kid up from school that we were both wearing (different shades of) purple Chucks and well—I didn’t really expect that apple to fall very far I guess

It’s the day of a game 7 night, so cheers to having no idea whether your day will turn out amazing or heartbreaking

It got down to 50 degrees, so they’re selling lil bundles of firewood outside the gas station, welcome to Texas

Unrelated, the only thing my toddler would eat for breakfast was a whole wheat hamburger bun. Ok you adorable little weirdo

And after all that end-of-season drama, the road to the World Series is through the fucking Rangers?? Ok universe, I see you

Attention Texas!! I’m wearing a sweatshirt. This is not a drill, I repeat, THIS IS NOT A DRILL

All sports weekend has commenced with an intense AF first quarter of Texas OU. Looking forward to excessive amounts of baseball in the afternoon

Look I don’t make the rules, I’m just telling you it’s a Wuthering Heights, Symphony in Blue, Hounds of Love kinda day

Well hello there, October baseball. Nice to see you again!

To watch Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid get asked about her in the postgame was poetry

Taylor Swift infiltrating the NFL and bringing all the Swifties with her is the absolute best thing in the world right now. There’s no shade in that statement. I am delighted by the entire thing

Me to @cobost.bsky.social as he left just now: Ok so I will get my computer out and send in the forms to register our son at the schools he’s been attending for three weeks.

The moral of this story? It’s never too late to become the flaky writer you always knew you were

A note I just made on my own story: she’s definitely a Tupperware party kind of mom. Why yes, I am old, why do you ask?

Oh no I’m afraid I have to make this now, despite not generally caring for pumpkin things beyond the occasional slice of pumpkin pie
