And with Bautista on deck!

Oregon pot stores opened on October 1 and I finally went to one yesterday. It was glorious. I got 6 different types and have already put them to good use. I smoked some doing stuff weed today and got so much stuff done around the house and in the yard it was ridiculous. I also got some chill weed to smoke after work.…

So long as you do it well, seems that just about anything would work. Impressive would be finding out her taste and cooking for that.

I need good vibes sent to my niece. She was admitted today to a mental hospital due to some severe issues. Her Mom and Dad are cuckoo and I think part of the problem. She is only 14 :-(

I am not looking forward to the coming week. My birthday is tomorrow, I’ll be 41. Whoopee. Freaking 41. What even. My oldest( 5.5) is sick and piteous. My husband has to travel for work all week and I’m resoluting refusing to consider that all three of my kids might get sick. Even though we all shared a drink…

That completely sucks. I’m sorry.

As a fellow depraved Canadian, I approve this message.

Hi, Jezzies. Has anybody tried transporting pets via plane? I’m flying with my 17 lb. dog. She’s too big for the cabin so I have to put her on the cargo hold. The flight takes 3.5 hours nonstop, and I booked with United. I read horror stories of pets dying, so I would appreciate some key advice on how to keep her…

So I talked over the last couple of weekends about the craziness my daughter and I were going through. Well, you will be happy to know we are settled (well as settled as an adult and a tween could be) into a motel, and today we came up with something we could sell to help defray our costs, and hopefully get up enough…

I need tips for getting over a crush! I am a happily married (10 years married, 16 together and he’s great), but my kid’s kindergarten teacher is ridiculously hot. Magical smile, tall, blonde, lanky, and loves loves children. The man wears a KNEE-PAD so he can get on their level in comfort! That’s some varsity-level…

Welp. I’ve given up sugar, stopped going for fast food, and lowered my carb intake. I’ve only told my best friend that I am pre-diabetic. I’ve eaten unhealthily forever and it finally is catching up on me. Food has always been my back-up drug for anything emotional. So what am I eating tonight. The last of my carb…

So, I think I have a job. I interviewed on Monday and she was supposed to call references yesterday and then today, but now she is saying Monday. She told me I am moving forward though so I should go ahead and get started on my police check and TB test. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get the results?

I made a ‘joke’ that Revere and Donaldson shouldn’t be let back into the country....that 9th inning :( :(

I GOT A NEW JOB!!!!! I’m super excited, but I feel awful about having to leave my current position in a lurch (I work with high school programming and I’m just now getting to know the kids :-/).

After this week, my only advice is:

As a Canadian, I was disappointed that the Toronto Blue Jays lost the ALCS game yesterday. However, on a related note, I just found out that the Westboro Baptist Church actually picketed the game:

This will most likely get lost in the greys, but next week I am leaving to do dissertation research for two months in Paris and was wondering if anyone had recommendations of restaurants, cafes, pastry shops, bars, lesser-known parks, or other cool experiences that I shouldn’t miss while I’m there. I’m staying in an…

I’m 35, back in school, working fulltime and I have procrastinated the shit out of midterm presentation that I have to give this week. Like it was assigned 3 weeks ago and I haven’t even started procrastination. Aside from the fact that I’m intimidated as hell by the assignment, I think that I’m partly dragging my…

Shoutout to everyone who’s racking up them vet bill$$$... remember Amy? She’d been vomiting for 3 days straight so I took her to the vet, no biggie. There they were concerned she might’ve swallowed a foreign body (barbie shoe maybe?) and took an x-ray and performed an ultrasound. They didn’t find anything but the did…

So, after all of my anxieties leading up to it, I’m now officially 40. Yikes. Here’s to the next new decade of growth, learning, and self-awareness!
