Aaaaand we just spent an hour looking for Pickles, who decided to sneak out while the guys were unpacking. Is today over yet?

I am going to lock me and all of my loved ones in this house for the next four days to be on the safe side.

Perhaps when someone is experiencing an insanely stressful and potentially life-threatening situation, those outside the situation should remember it's not all about them 💫

Update:

At the dealership where the car was towed. Can't find the car.

We are now in an Uber with Christmas music blaring, and I feel like I may have stepped into another dimension at some point.

This one always with a smile on his face. No matter how effed up the situation. ❤️

Nothing like being stranded on the side of a busy expressway on the day before Thanksgiving. Looks like our travel plans are significantly changed.

My son is in the back seat binging Futurama while I drive. I may make him switch with me soon...jealous

I first heard the dog running away phrase, or something like it, in I Was A Teenage Slasher by Stephen Graham Jones. It made me laugh. Relatable.

Later, that book made me cry.

Highly recommend it.

Road tripping today to the panhandle of Texas, where the terrain is so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days.

I plan to spend the rest of the evening binging season 4 of Stranger Things and eating my weight in popcorn. 🎬🍿

The last two days of non-stop basketball have warmed my heart.

Gazing at my shelves, trying to decide which books to take with me as we travel this weekend. So hard to choose.

No such thing as “too many books.” I’m gonna read them all.
Eventually.

So far this morning, I've had four cups of strong tea while making peanut butter fudge, which must be sampled as it's being cooked.

They may have to scrape me off the ceiling...

I have several:

Laurel Hightower
Tanya Pell
C.S. Humble
Lucy Rose
Ania Ahlborn
Chuck Tingle
Alex Grecian
Annie Neugebauer
Who are writers you started reading in the last year or so that are now must-read writers for you?

This happens a lot but off the top of my head for me it's Sayaka Murata, Eliza Clark, and Delilah S. Dawson.

Also a big nod to Dan Howarth for wowing me with Last Night of Freedom and Lionhearts.

DJ took my company car in for scheduled maintenance. Mentioned how the tires obviously needed to be rotated. The mechanic man helping him said it would definitely be a woman that wouldn't pay attention to her tires needing rotation. Casual misogyny on full display.

DJ gave him a piece of his mind.

This is a little heads up to keep a lookout for the stabstress this week! She’ll be back out to do some fundraising for the Transgender Law Center. More details coming soon (and some in the alt text) 👀

I highly recommend getting shakes with your kid and singing to Pink Pony Club and Hot To Go in the car as loud as possible.

Instant mood lifter.
