I almost never not refer to my sister as my bitch sister. I also have my witch mother.

They are exactly that as well as simultaneously stressful and boring. It's just dandy for imposter syndrome!

Thanks, Same back atcha.

I have been wanting to bake macarons for a year, but have been too intimidated. Today I just tried it. Not perfect, but super delicious! I've also still managed to keep my sanity as I continue work on my faculty applications, which is the biggest accomplishment of all...

Holy smokes SNS so early yay!! Thanks Emily! Hi everybody! I’m roasting carrots, already toasted pumpkin seeds, and I’m drinking Jose Cuervo with zero calorie lemonade and a squeeze of lime, so delicious! Oooh, and, I have Sour Blueberry medical marijuana to ease my pain! Just bought it this morning and I’m going to…

The baby is 7 weeks old today and the dishwasher is now fixed. Sadly, because I was spending half an hour every night handwashing dishes, that time had to come from somewhere. And that somewhere was Marzipan’s grooming.

My best friend died yesterday. After watching her continued deterioration from MS for the past 13 years, and after contracting pneumonia 2 weeks ago, last weekend she decided she wanted to be taken off antibiotics and IV fluids.

My brand new baby, Clementine.

Does anyone else have to deal with corporate shenanigans at work? At my job, the executive leadership team decided to use this system for efficiency developed by Toyota, adapted (poorly) for a hospital system. It’s a real waste of my time, and three times a week, I text my husband, time for the corporate jargon…

OMG I needs him!!! Also love cats with human names. We have a Kevin.

Yay! Early social! I’m hoping for a craft thread :)

I recently started putting myself out and available again in the last few months and I’m really starting to get down lately because of how badly I’ve been striking out whenever I’ve demonstrated any interest in someone. Which is fine, right? That’s just how it works. What really sucks is that I was just walking home…

Shelter Update!

Adding details to our Thanksgiving week roadtrip: Bay Area—>Mojave Desert (1 night)—>Zion (1 night)—> Bryce Canyon (2 nights)—> Las Vegas (1 night)—> Bay Area. We’re pretty good on the national parks (other than if there are specific hikes/restaurants anyone would recommend), but I admit—neither myself nor my partner…
