yes, that's impressive!! My mom would certainly have put her foot down (I think), but otherwise Teenage Me would likely have gone and.... regretted it. :-(

I miss my grandparents so, so much. They were the coolest. They were fun as hel, and gave zero fucks. Also, had such awesome, brave life stories! Ok, not going to cry. Nope. Maybe.

same.

would watch.

Me me me me me me meeeeeee

this is one of the many reasons it's great to have a local bar where you are a regular, and no one ever needs to card you.

I'm more of a skirt/dress suit person, myself, but... Maybe this is the start of a new me!

When I was 13, I was on a vacation with my family. A grown man, God knows how olds...30ish? hit on me and we started making out. My (older) sister saw and rescue me. We ran off and she gave me a little talk. (I'm pretty sure"what were you thinking?!" was involved, but she def called the dude a predator.)

close, but not quite. Brunch is for people who celebrate booze with breakfast. Honestly, no one I know who loves brunch is even mildly guilty about their love of booze at 11am on the weekend.

I made a sugar cube Mayan temple in elementary school. (CA kid.) We never toured a mission, but damn, we spent a lot of time learning about them.

I don't live near a Costco anymore, but the produce is good. The trick is to buy stuff you can actually eat before it goes bad. Skip stuff like spinach, though, unless... I don't know, you're planning on making something like spinach lasagna, or casseroles, soon?

I've been to the Bell House because one of my cooler siblings lives in Brooklyn and loves it. No doubt I will have family there, and my status as the uncool sibling will be reinforced. Nbd.

NO. Never. God, it's probably been 7 months since I've taken a regular selfie.

Sweet! I imagine you're very good at your job. Also that you have opinions on anti-vaxxers. Ha.

What kind of doctor are you? (Other than a yoga loving one! ;-)

Um, so, I can sometimes be a little judgey about shit, but there are literally NO RULES about booze, other than follow your palate. Part of my job is to talk to/educate/sample the boozes. Personally? I hate sweet wine. But you know what? If someone likes a moscato cocktail that involves sparkling moscato, pear juice…

Elise talking shit about her cast mates in the confessional is amazing. (I kind of love her, even if self describing as a "militant atheist" is kinda obnoxious. But, when I was a Young, I was like that. Now I'm a chill atheist. And I don't have people showing me bible passages telling me I'm a fool. So there is…

The wine is terrible. And pointless. The calories you save are negligible. I've not tried the cocktails. (If you want to make a good margarita at home, just use tequila, fresh lime juice, and agave nectar. You're welcome.)

Kinda off-topic, but after I gave up on sleep last night (fuck you, insomnia), I watched episode 1 of season 1 of ANTM. You guys. I never saw the first season. Omg. The production values are so cheesy. But it was kinda interesting to hear the judges argue about the pics.

I have three middle names. (Long-ish story.) my name takes up two lines on my drivers license.
