Don’t talk to me or my son ever again.

A picture of me standing next to the biggest lego cat statue I’ve ever seen in a Lego store at our local mall. He’s a black and white cat statue wearing a red and white winter beanie hat. Quite possibly the greatest marketing campaign in the history of the world.

Wow, it feels like only a couple years ago as opposed to 8!!!

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Feb 3

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

😂

I appreciate you, Michael. Work has been keeping me so busy lately that I’ve had to scale back a lot of my social media nonsense. But I’ll make sure to still pop in from time to time. Hope you and the family are doing well!

Your cruelty knows no limits, Chad.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Jan 24

No.

You will feel this sadness.

TAKE IT.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Jan 24

You’re welcome?

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Jan 24

Same, Artax.

Same.

#TheNeverendingStory #LEGO

A picture of a Lego scene I made from the movie the never ending story where Artax sinks in the swamps of sadness because he lets the sadness overtake him. There’s a swampy landscape with various green vines and gnarly roots coming out of the black ground. Artax the white horse is up to his neck in the swamp. Atreyu is waist deep trying to pull on Artax’s reins unsuccessfully because he’s given up and is letting the sorrow claim him. Sometimes life just kind of feels like that.

There was one Christmas where my parents gave me a VHS copy of The Little Mermaid and I watched it relentlessly for the entirety of winter break while eating giant bag of peanut M&Ms and it still lives on in my memory as the best Christmas ever. John is recreating that memory for me this morning. 😭

A picture of a small vcr and tv combo unit playing the little mermaid. The little mermaid vhs clamshell is propped up next to the tv. John, not pictured, is busy making breakfast for us after a wonderful morning of opening all sorts of presents and delicious treats. Best Christmas ever.

Right? What is there beyond 11:30 except absolute misery? Get me home.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Dec 24

I had a dream last night that I was out with a bunch of friends. It was nearing 11:30 and they all wanted to go to a second venue. I got so mad and kept saying it was late and I needed to be in bed, so I made a complete scene about it and got an uber home.

Look forward to your 40s, kids.

A picture of a Lego scene I made of the mall scene from Terrifier 3 where Art the Clown is dressed up as Santa and sitting in the Santa chair waiting for kids to come up and meet him. There’s a little boy opening a box labeled T N T to the right of Santa Art while a bunch of kids and parents wait to meet Santa.

I cannot believe Christmas is this week. What the hell happened to December.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Dec 22

I'm in my happy place. 🎄

#WorldOfWarcraft

A picture of my character in World of Warcraft dressed up like a slutty elf basically standing in front of the snow globe in Orgrimmar. I have my little reindeer pet with his glowing nose standing next to me.

It’s never enough.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Dec 16

Starting off my last week before vacation with a 9:00 dental cleaning this morning followed by:

🎵
3 days of travel 🚘
2 production rollouts 💻
1 company dinner 🍽️
and enough stress to give me a coronary 🫀

Send help.

Santa Claws. 🎅

A picture of our inflatable cat Santa lawn decoration at night. He’s a big fat white cat dressed in a Santa outfit.

I wish I worked at a Lego store so I could abscond with it, even if it cost me my job. It would be worth it.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Dec 12

God I love your shelving. A dream.

My tuxedo cat is also still in his box. It’s criminal really.

Kim Faul @kimfaul.bsky.social · Dec 12

I love him.

A fancy gentleman.

Lego cat is giant and polite.

My Lego cat’s breath smells like Lego cat food.

My dad used to keep a collection of fun pencils in his filing cabinet for whenever we’d need pencils for our homework. It was always special to get one of the filing cabinet pencils. After he died, I went through his filing cabinet and found one of the special pencils, still intact and unused.

A picture of an old snoopy pencil from the late 80s I think that has not been sharpened yet. Snoopy is in a boat fishing in a lake. The eraser is dried and hard as a rock. It’s the little things.
