I remember the abject terror I felt when the pizza delivery guy showed up at my door saying “time for your Monday night pizza again, huh?”

I'm buying a car today and my year-long bike commuting experiment has come to an end. it's bittersweet but safe bike infrastructure just doesn't exist for my 9-mile interstate commute, even on an e-bike. one day I will find a job on this side of the river and ride there, but that day is not today

I did cry at the finale of this show and also there was a 5-minute Domino’s product placement scene in the middle of all the feelings. it was perfect
I finally tried out a new K-drama (Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha) and 10 episodes in I am giggling and kicking my feet. of course that means there are 6 episodes left for this show to absolutely turn me inside out and rearrange me forever

when I was 12 I was babysitting the neighbor kids and I decided to try a trick on the 7yo's Razor scooter. I tipped over and broke my leg in 3 places, but this was before everyone had cell phones so we just had to wait for my parents to come home from work and take me to the hospital

it's really weird to have a bunch of extended family that, for various reasons mostly related to dead grandparents, have zero contact with my parents, my sister, and me. there are at least 11 cousins I'm never going to get to know all because our varied grandparents couldn't act right??
