This picture of me as a 16 year old… oh man it brings me back. Mostly dark times, but important to point out that picture of Lauren Graham. I was a Gilmore Girls obsessee as it aired!

I'll be sad when my dad dies but the very first thing I'll do is pick up this goddamn mug that sits on his desk and smash it in the driveway.

Asked for a credit line increase at BofA and their list of occupations is deranged. Chose “Analyst” for lack of better options. Does what you do appear on here?

I cannot with this costume design choice. 90% of the time in action it just looks wrinkled or scrunched up. Why??? That being said, I’m obsessed with the Starfleet zipper pull and I need 100 of them immediately.

Can someone explain to me how this floor plan works? Both bedrooms are drawn as being the same length, but they don't remotely share a measured dimension. 🫠

It should be illegal for bags to say they're 100% recyclable without further instructions, because dollars to donuts they're not recyclable by putting them in the big blue bin your city provides. Greenwashing at its finest.

When I was in my 20s and super extra (more than now if you can believe it) I hand wrote a cookbook that I got professionally printed and gave to all my friends for Christmas. I still make most of the recipes and we made this Quinoa Soup last night and it was great (my kids hated it).

Ramit Sethi’s second edition of “I Will Teach You to Be Rich” has a mea culpa because the first edition listed explicit HYSA interest rates and he says he’ll never put hard numbers in a book again… and then I see this… 😭

We watched Ghostbusters (2016) and while the youngest didn't cotton to it the way the eldest did, he's become obSESSED with the tie-in co-op board game we have for it. The rule is every time we bust a ghost you have to sing "BUSTIN MAKES ME FEEL GOOD". Pretty cute.

I'm sorry, did no one at NYT catch that this is the name of the protagonist in Girls? Is there a real Hanna (no H) that lives in Brooklyn now and has to deal with this question every fucking day? What's happening here? www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

It took about three years but 2025 was the year I finally weaned myself fully off of Amazon.*
*full disclosure in December I venmo-ed a friend $20 to buy some kids sunglasses and have them shipped to my house since I don’t have Prime anymore

Resolutions: get rid of fabric (😭), Peloton related, using dependent care savings as an IRA savings fund, reading physical books and 10 I pick randomly off a shelf, don’t loose all my money, and get Penny to pass the good canine citizen test. Last one is a big stretch, but a good goal.
