The newbie steps forward, takes a millennial pause, and offers a small wave.

"oh, uh-hi there... I like writing fantasy stories.

I play a warlock/bard at the D&D table. Axford is my favourite TTRPG player.

And, on instagram I have a lego stormtrooper that has adventures.

Want to be friends?"

Me too. Is this a seasonal thing for all of us now?

Y’all. I’ve rolled 4 nat ones so far this session.

I spilled my coffee into my soup.

Prior to that, all my today spills had been single liquid spills.

So, that’s where I’m living.

When is NaddPod going to have another spills episode? … I need to talk to them. @caldy.bsky.social

Would you take a second corgi a third time? 😊🫣

Two majestic corgis standing in the snow next to one another. One is fluffy and orange. The other is black, tan, and white. They carry smug expressions and adorable ears.

Things I tripped over today:
My corgi
my own foot
my other corgi
their full water bowl
the side walk
nothing
the stairs I use every day
a branch
A sock in my hallway

Stay tuned. The day isn’t over.

Crow update: there's two now! and they are making the cutest beeping sounds at each other. Love that for them.

Amy Lee Attempts to Write @amylees.bsky.social · May 21

We saw the crow again, making its cute little chirpy sounds. This time, it visited our back yard and shouted at our dogs, who found this delightful. I hope the crow finds a sweet crow love.

Today, while we were walking the corgis, we heard a crow making a neat sound atop a streetlight-- trying to find their true crow love. I hope they find each other soon. Will update you.

Event. They were absolutely right!

My calendar strategy:

Get date in email.

Don’t delete email until date is on whiteboard calendar in kitchen.

At some point later, put whiteboard dates into paper calendar.

Even later, put dates into phone - but only maybe.

Try to remember if I use gCal or iCal.

This is fine. #writerlife

Ways I've made my corgi angry:

She hurt herself and is not allowed to hop up into her chair.

This. Is. An. Outrage.

We dared take her to the vet and the vet dared thwart her chair-sitting plans.

The mood in the dwelling is tense.

An orange corgi stands in the grass holding a deflated ball which looks like, at one time, it was as big as her.

I am currently trying to convince myself not to eat my cupcake before dinner.

Future me would be so disappointed in past me and people-pleaser me will be disappointed in both mes.

So that’s what’s going on over here.

Today, I wish for you the kind of peaceful rest / nap Wolf is having.

Yes. The little snores are audible.

#corgi

A corgi with brown and black fur rests in a fluffy dog bed. His head is smooshed into a pink blankie, while his legs are splayed in front of him. His eyes are closed and the tip of his tongue is sticking out of his smiling mouth. He looks peaceful.

Just in case any other Canadians are looking:

I've swapped over to Marcelle cosmetics and want to share that I am impressed! 🇨🇦

Physicians Formula discontinued a foundation years ago and I've been looking for a replacement since. Who knew it was right here at home!

Whelp. I guess we’re spending the day cancelling some subscriptions.

@samreich.bsky.social can you do an ‘Oops, all Canadians!’ episode of something?

Creamy cheese lump.

Let it be said, @dropouttv.bsky.social is offering educational content.

I have just learned that there is gluten in soya sauce.

Now, it’s made out of two things I’m not supposed to eat.

I have chosen to dissociate from the reality where I know this information.

This explains some stuff…

In other news, I’m also going to continue eating cheese.

The best conversation I’ve had today:

Me: Hey, are you still in that meeting?

Them: When they say we have 206 bones, they don’t count the teeth.

Me: … ?

Answers to your questions:
We work in software. No. Not dentistry software.

Yes. They were still in the meeting.

“He LOOKS like his wife’s name is Tammy” may be the funniest thing I’ve heard today.
