The blue jays were all about this feeder during last weekend's snowstorm. I set this feeder up to try to befriend crows, but the jays are all about it. #corvids #birds #BirdOfTheDay #newjersey

I just met Anna Wintour in a Duane Reade downstairs from my office. I needed batteries for my little Christmas tree. She was very kind and gracious. That was unexpected.

We got way more snow than the 4-6" they were forecasting, but at least I got to take a rare Christmas lights snow pic! #holidays #christmas #christmaslight #freehold #newjesery #snow

A fire has broken out at a metal scrapyard 4 blocks from our house. So many emergency personnel responded. They had it put out for a while, but it has since reignited. The smoke smells like a combination of burning rubber and plastic. We have no idea what we're breathing in here. #freehold #NJ

Finished the outside of the house yesterday, and today was all about the inside of the house. The tree is up and decorated, as well as the living room. #Christmas #ChristmasLights #ChristmasDecorating

After I got all the Christmas lights set up on the house, I had to get the Chief set up as well. Here is my obligatory spare tire wreath video. #JeepLife #DuckDuckJeep #Christmas #ChristmasLights

Took two days because I had to deal with leaves and other end-of-the-year yard maintenance, but I finally got the Christmas lights up. It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow. I should be able to get the Christmas tree and the rest of the indoor decorations taken care of. #Christmas #ChristmasLights

Started working on the holiday decorations today. I won't have the lights on until tomorrow, but I thought it might be fun to share this new addition! #FDT

I shit you not, another student driver in the parking lot across the street just had another accident. Jumping over the same curb.... we're going to have to go to some town council meetings or something.

The saga of the car hitting my house has officially come to an end. The crew of contractors wrapped up today, leaving the foundation of my house in better a shape than it was before the accident. If you're in Central Jersey and need a contractor, I have your guy.

Go Mikie!!! 🚀
NJ’s first female Democratic Governor.
NJ hasn’t handed three straight Democratic terms in over 60 years.
History made. LFG!!!

Obligatory childhood Halloween pic of me and my siblings. I'm guessing this was 1983. I'm in the middle, my younger brother Mike is on the right, and no... that horrifying thing on the left is not a doll. That's my seemingly catatonic sister, Jen, as Strawberry Shortcake. #GenX #halloween

Happy Halloween! In my day, we didn’t have the internet... we had Tim Curry singing Anything Can Happen on Halloween, and we loved it. Unabashedly and unironically. #GenX #TheWorstWitch #TimCurry #AnythingCanHappenOnHalloween

The last gasp of this storm flooded the tracks at the Newark airport station, 60-minute delays. So I’m riding the ferry for the first time to South Amboy, and grabbing a Lyft to get the Jeep parked at the Aberdeen station. This is a lot, but the ferry is delightful. #commuter #njtransit #nywaterway

I spoke to our insurance adjuster yesterday. It's not finalized yet, but it would appear we will be getting a completely new, period-correct brick foundation. The car owner's insurance company is taking full responsibility. The adjuster was describing how the repairs would work.

Updates on the car hitting my house incident: While I was in AZ, I received my copy of the police report. The girl who was behind the wheel was 15, too young to have a learner's permit. She was charged with driving without a license, careless driving, and driving the wrong way down the street.

All of my dental work is complete and i couldn't be happier. I'm still processing this. It doesn't feel real. I'm trying to learn how to smile with my lips open. That's not something I've ever done. I left Yuma today and now I'm in my old neighborhood in Mesa. #Arizona #Mesa #DentalTourism

Made it to Arizona, had some irritating issues with the rental car, but I'll manage. Today I spent the afternoon tubing on the Colorado River. Tonight dinner and maybe a dive bar, tomorrow Los Algodones and dental work. #Yuma #Arizona #LosAlgodones #dentaltourism

Today I went to my parents’ house for a BBQ. We brought the dogs—it had been a while since they’d gone on an adventure. We grilled, played cornhole, and broke out some board games. Then, at 7:30, my phone starts blowing up—people are ringing my doorbell at home.
