Set your clocks back this weekend by telling them their accomplishments are meaningless and you've never really loved them

how I feel posting bangers at 8am

You know how when you haven't tasted anything sweet for a while and when you finally have a bite of dessert it explodes across your taste buds as a kind of euphoria? Well, I've had a tough few months and then yesterday I lost my cell phone in a taxi. After an evening of self-recrimination and dread about having to replace it, this morning I got it back. It was in the lost and found. This tiny piece of kindness and good luck almost reduced me to tears of gratitude. It was a good day.

my mother, staring down at my open casket: is that what you're wearing

I'm not ready for my deathbed but I just got a great deal on a coma hammock

I have two families living with me because their homes in Lahaina and in the NWT were recently destroyed by wildfires. Today, in a city that is often rainy but never has thunderstorms, we had a severe lightning storm. Now there are forest fires just a few miles from my house. I'm trying very hard to be the calm, strong optimistic person that everyone (especially the kids) here needs, but I'm privately starting to feel overwhelmed by dread and panic. Ty for letting me vent here. It helps.

The intensity of my hatred for fruit flies should cause them to burst into flames on sight, but here we are

my milkshake brings all the fruit flies to my kitchen and god do I hate these tiny flying creeps

I love autumn leaves. They completely validate my belief that sometimes it"s ok to just give up and fall to the ground

Because wildfires destroyed their homes I've got a bunch more people living with me right now. Today I took all the teens to the lake so they could have some fun. I'd forgotten how being 16 is 50% "almost fully grown" and 50% "the boys found a really great stick" ❤️
