Soft stillness. Twinkle lights. Venus in Tuberose. One long exhale. Book of spells. Handwritten heart.

Make things. Care about them. Care about people. I've received so many excited messages from people today, and all I did was make a card. Everyone wins.

Real talk: if I don't find a Bella Donna Stevie Barbie I will live, but I will have a very small hole in my heart that cannot be filled.

Another day, another Stevie Nicks Barbie doll that I failed to secure for my bookshelf.

I did not write this, but I could have.

My favourite thing about hand delivering all of my Halloween cards this year?

1) Staring into all of my friend's Ring cameras like a total creep,
2) Lifting the lid of the mailbox abnormally slowly,
3) Walking backwards down the driveway.

‘The Guardian, Protector of the Lost & Forgotten’ by Emily Weatherall is a wonderfully tender embroidery piece that shows the balance between life, death and the magic of nature.

I make my own fun😆

The penality of being in my general presence? I AM going to take over a Monday morning work meeting & turn it into Halloween trivia with atmosphere videos😈

Autumn sky. Car stereo. Memories from 20 years ago. Perfect trees. 10 and 2.

“Dad, this steering wheel feels really weird.”
“Do you want a free car or not?”
“I’ll take the weird steering wheel.”

Low mileage (I hate driving), Y2K friendly. I'll toss in a burned copy of American Football's LP1 if you really want the true Jen experience.

I think I'm about to part with my 2001 Honda Civic, in case anyone I know is also looking for the only things I care about in a car: dorky looking, reliable, good on gas, and still has a cd player.

I did not have this experience so I'm not sure, but apparently it tastes like a rusty nail in orange juice?!? I haven't tried it yet🙊

Naturopath: I'm going to prescribe you a liquid iron supplement, but it tastes kind of weird. Like fruit juice mixed with...

Me: A rusty spoon? For my salad fingers?

Her: What???

Me: Nevermind.

If you need to get ahold of me prior to October 31st, you first must consult with the trees or the dark lord.

My reaction for the entire month of October when people at work ask me what I’m up to this weekend:

Perfect Thursday night: dripping sealing wax on several spooky envelopes while playing the “Ghoul Log” on Shudder in the background.

People always ask me for recommendations, so here is one. It may be easier for me because I have very defined interests (and a lot of them), but cultivating things that you love leads to other loves. Soon you’ll have a whole world.

Listening to podcasts & conversations has benefitted my heart & brain in immeasurable ways. I listened to this as I was getting ready this morning & it made me move through the fog differently.

Defiantly: “Look, I have adult money & if I want to spend it on haunted ghost lights, I will!!”

If you don’t think that “Only Lovers Left Alive” is peak romance then I suppose we’re just going to disagree about this one.

Seems like a good night to visit some old friends/my favourite couple.

When you were not planning to take your break this early, but *really* had to snipe a copy of this before it sells out again & you didn’t want to do it on your work computer (for obvious reasons):
