Rethinking the tattoo idea. I grew up in a big old Victorian surrounded by heirloom flowers. I had a little garden of my own. It was framed by hydrangea, wisteria and peonies. What if I got a tattoo of pink peonies, purple wisteria and blue hydrangea, all in a row? Would people know what it meant?

I'm thinking of getting a new tattoo. Maybe on my right bicep to match the leaf on my left (see icon). I'm thinking of a peony in the bisexual flag colors, sort of a subtle "why yes, I am bisexual!" signal. Any thoughts on placement or design? And would people know what it meant?

I've been feeling unmotivated about my business lately. I feel that I'm working so hard and not seeing any results.

But I just started reading E-Myths Revisited by Michael Gerber and it's really making me rethink how I approach my business. And how creatives should approach business. Recommended!

My new washer and dryer sing jaunty tunes when they are done! And send a notification to my phone. The washer is so big and deep that it can wash a comforter and I need a step stool to reach the bottom. They are specifically for pet hair removal too!

I have entered the modern age. My new range connects to my phone, has a convection oven, and an air fryer! No more wonky burners and stuck drawers with broken handles!

Methodist minister (YES I KNOW), classical singer, classical pianist, writer, Russian Language & Literature professor. Now, I'm an accountant. Kinda took a weird turn somewhere.
Does anyone ever grow up and do the job they wanted to do as a kid

So I washed my work ID badge last night. I do hope I can get into the office tomorrow. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Listening to a report about the NPR lawsuit against defunding public news. Funny how facts have a liberal bias. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Today I woke up nauseous and got even more so with breakfast. But I still managed to make:

Overnight oats
Sauteed spinach and garlic
Coconut rice
Korean BBQ ground beef
Caramelized lemon linguine

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Lots of ginger drops helped. Of course I still need to do more since it's only 1:30 PM. 😫

I took a sleeping pill on Friday night around 11:30 PM. While I had brief moments of wakefulness, I just fully woke up at 6 AM on Sunday. I haven't felt so rested in months! I do feel bad about all the things I had planned on doing on Saturday, though.

I love the Red Line! There's always some new shit to deal with. It's great for my easily bored ADD mind.

I run an accounting biz educating creatives like artists, writers, crafters, musicians, performers, etc about business finances, bookkeeping & accounting. I'm looking for some creative entrepreneurs to interview to get an idea of what they need. Any takers? Free advice & tools in return!

My parents quietly put a copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves on a shelf in the music room and pretended like it appeared by magic. That was it. That was the talk.
did anyones parents *actually* talk to them about sex?

its been a plot point in like every TV show and movie about raising kids for like centuries at this point but does it actually happen?

i think "the birds and the bees" speech is entirely a ficticious construct

Also in containing multitudes: I got over 6 hours of sleep last night! And I completely murdered someone's very easy to pronounce name. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey.

They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

Ok, I have to proselytize about the morning hair care routine. Because if you like to blow out your hair in the morning, this will change your life. You could get 10-20 extra minutes of sleep every morning!

So this morning I almost hit a deer with my brand new car, and then I revolutionized someone's morning routine by telling her how to style her hair faster. I contain multitudes, folks!

It is doing Weird Spring Weather here. Yesterday I had the AC blasting. This morning I have the heat on because it was 68 in my apartment and it's only getting up to 73 today. Tomorrow and Monday will be almost 80, but Tuesday will be below 70. WTF?

40 minutes to go before quitting time! My eyes want to close so badly...

I love it when the supposedly comprehensive procedure guide tells you to do something but doesn't tell you how to do it. That's so useful!

I had PT this morning and can I tell you? Getting a massage (just my calf, ankle and foot) first thing in the morning is glorious! My calf was cramping and my Achilles tendon was tender but now they feel so much better!
