Hi new people! I post fashion pics, favorite dog and cat photos, and talk about being disabled. Sarcasm is welcomed if you know me, otherwise it will get you blocked.

AP is my cat-niece!

considering all of the innings in a baseball game, the first is definitely one of them

UConn WBB is the most notable sports team in Storrs. Those girls have the motion and legacy to back it. Nobody going up to Storrs for nothing else unless you have family members/friends who play other sports up there and you're going to support. Be for real! 😂

have said before but my old coworker who was an mis director and a superintendent had a saying: two groups you never want to piss off - (1) old ladies in sneakers with nothing but time and (2) parents of students with disabilities

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

One of my very favorite stories of the year. He seems like such a delight as a person and I'm so, so happy he's been able to find the on-field success to go with it.

Want to give Eduard Bazardo a little extra love this morning because his turn around from last year when he was a guy we’d groan about when he got in a game to now one of our most consistently dependable guys is just so cool. We would not be where we are without him. And he was amazing last night!

Also, feel like I should put the word out: Massachusetts folks, under 5s can get COVID boosters! You just got to call around. They are available but at the moment the stock is more limited. With I'd say a... mediumish? amount of effort, we were able to find one for our 4yo this weekend. ❤️

He talks and he talks with nothing to say
Unable to keep my fury at bay
Forthwith laryngitis for him I so

Oct 11th - Eleven-year-old twin sisters, Hallie Parker and Annie James (both played by Lindsay Lohan) were born, before being separated by their divorcing parents.

📽️📅 The Parent Trap (1998)

2 Screenshots from the movie "The Parent Trap" (1998): First, a young girl with red hair and a headband looks over her shoulder, seated in a wooden cabin with a window in the background. Subtitles read, "How old are you? - I'll be 12 on October 11." Second, another frame shows a similar-looking girl with her hair down, expressing surprise in the same cabin setting. Subtitles read, "So will I. - Your birthday's on October 11?"

I just thought about something…can you believe they gave A’ja “CO-DPOY” this season?!

Where is that other DPOY?

She also got TORCHED by the same people A’ja just swept.

BUT ANYWAYS!! Aces are the champs!

A’ja is 4x MVP, 3x DPOY, 5x Scoring champ, 2x Finals MVP, and 3x Champ!

Last night’s reaction to the Cathy Engelbert should be another indication to Adam Silver that she needs to go. I mean if the players losing all confidence in her isn’t enough.

Okay, Scottish folks, help an immunocompromised person figure out how to get a COVID shot. Everything says NHS will contact if eligible, but how do I establish that with them? Is that a 111 sort of thing?

I’m so relieved that game is over, I kid you not. I’d moved through every stage and was at a listless “no, it’s fine, I’ll just slowly slink into oblivion” finality. But we look forward, Tigers fans! Go do great things, Mariners! And also Blue Jays! Love you both. xoxo and sleep well, lovers of ⚾️
