lol @ Guy With Clipboard who just rang my doorbell. So cute how you think I’m going to open my door and talk to you. I admire your confidence 🤗

You ever sit down at your desk and go “I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing”?

I like how this vegan cafe has styrofoam cups and plastic straws.

Happy Friday!

I am currently in standby mode waiting to hear which of my proposed packages a prospective client has selected for their beach house mural 🏝️

(I am STUPID EXCITED about this project)

I love when Buddy’s at day camp because Milo comes home EXHAUSTED.

Get you someone who looks at you the way Milo would look at his best friend Buddy if Milo had fully functional eyeballs and wasn’t sight impaired.

I just realized it’s October which means my newest nibling could arrive ANY MINUTE

She’s due on Halloween

My new glasses came today.

The green glitter is super fun but the progressive lenses are making me want to barf

No worries buddy I’m not busy or anything

In other old lady news, my new progressive lens glasses will be here later this week

But I got green glitter frames so hopefully I will still look cool even though I have to hold shit far away from my face to read it now

CPAP update:

My new mask is so much better!

Instead of “pillows” that go up my nostrils (and make them chapped & sad) the new mask gently cradles my snoot on a silky fabric coated silicone air pillow 😍

It’s much more comfy and way easier to sleep in

Good afternoon.

Milo would like to invite everyone to come smell his beard 🤗

He promises it isn’t stinky.

It’s safe. He would never lie to you.

“This looks like a long message. Summarize it with Meta AI.”

Thanks, I will literally never do that.

CPAP update:

I’m sleeping a little better I think? I feel slightly less shitty when I’m awake, anyway

But my new mask isn’t here yet so I’m stuck wearing the nasal pillow style I started with and it’s making my nose so sore even though I took out my jewelry and my nostrils are chapped :(

"It looks like this message is in Greek"

No it isn't? It's not even on the same continent as Greek

(I'm pretty confident we're still a long way from a hostile AI takeover, friends.)

Obviously everybody gets backpay in my imaginary scenario, but I feel like whoever the fuck in Congress would work A LOT HARDER to reach a compromise if full blown countrywide anarchy was the consequence (reward? 🤔)

Is it just me, or should government shutdown mean the government is SHUT. DOWN.

No postal service, no military, no TSA, close the nat'l parks. No executive orders, no "restructuring." No essential workers working for free.

"Shut down" means shut down. All of it.
