Annual physical today.

Told the doc I was good and I didn’t need my Xanax renewed. She said “great!”

After examining me she was like “I’m going to go ahead and renew your Xanax”

At a client dinner:
Me: actually human flesh is supposed to taste similar to pork, not beef
Everyone: …..
Boss: why do you know that?
Me: I briefly got super into the Asmat people of Papua New Guinea who practiced cannibalism
Boss: that’s on brand for you

There is something so so magical about being in NYC in a nearly deserted restaurant on a Monday when it’s raining and watching a first date where the guy is trying so hard.

Go get ‘em you crazy kids

Being single can have challenges, but the couples and relationships I witnessed on my travels chased the single blues far, far away.

I’ve been back from my trip to Turkey and Greece for a few days now and am still marveling at the number of times I heard “the missing one is in the British museum.”

As the world celebrates Easter, it’s important to remember that it always falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Spring Equinox. 🌕 💐

Love smelling the Angel share at 6 AM on the way to the gym. O Kentucky you will always have a piece of my heart.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

I am just a girl circling the block, begging people to learn how to parallel park and not leave huge gaps between cars.

I’d already paid April and he deposited it (alongside my March check…) when the ceiling issue hit this disaster point. Louisville is in a flood warning due to 3 days of rain. If it’s not fixed by May rent, I’ll be acting within my tenant rights 😕

If said landlord also was informed multiple times across multiple months that the water spot on the ceiling was getting worse and now your ceiling is falling in, you should get free rent for that month, not an overdrawn checking account.

If your landlord doesn’t deposit your rent check in the month you paid it for, they clearly don’t need the money and it should be illegal to deposit it at the same time as the following month’s rent.

Cool “filibuster” and all but what did it do and how much blood fuels that politicians career?
