Today is my 7th Kidneyversary! Seven years ago today a dear friend saved my life and gave me her kidney. Things would be very different for me these days if not for her sacrifice.

This is a post-WWII neighborhood and those are the original floors and they make me happy. Carpet is gross.

GenZ would tell me these floors are “orange” but I am old and no they aren’t. 😂

I am reminded of how much we love our hardwood floors, tho.

Photo of the entrance tomy living room. The hardwood floors are golden, the door is brown, the walls are blue and there’s a print of a painting of the Edmund Fitzgerald on the wall next to the door. There should be a console cabinet under the painting but I had to move it for the fridge delivery.

Currently waiting for refrigerator delivery people with my house torn apart. Had to move a lot of stuff around in the kitchen to give them clearance, as well as in the path from the door.

Not to mention cleaning under the old fridge tomorrow so we can put the new one down on a clean surface. But man, this is a ton of work.

Buying a new fridge shouldn’t be expensive AND laborious. And yet either set up of our kitchen we have had to move a bunch of little stuff and our entire six foot pantry cabinet.

The AWS outage today is a good reminder that there is no "cloud", there's just somebody else's computer.

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) at the Boston No Kings rally today, wore the trans pride flag like a scarf draped over his shoulders and included in his speech. "Because here in Massachusetts, we stand for what is right. We stand with trans people because trans rights are human rights."

Not sure the folks at NBC/Peacock thought this one through

Two announcers, Jason Garrett and Dan Hicks, stand in front of a sign that reads "Big Turd" thanks to how they are blocking it

All the MLB teams are making similar posts on Twitter and the responses show just how much this message is needed, and how much further baseball needs to go to firmly cement into a lot of their fans' brains that queer people deserve to be welcome in their stadiums. ⚾🏳️‍🌈

Baking bacon is supposed to be so easy but it literally never takes the same amount of time twice so I end up with the same not done not done not done BURNT as I do pan frying.

Stop asking people when they’re going to have a baby. It’s none of your business, first, and second, you have no idea what’s going on in their lives. the question may be incredibly hurtful.

I set BlueSky to prompt me to do alt text every time I post a photo so I don’t forget.

Folks, I don’t usually make it past 10:30 on a Friday. This baseball game is ridiculous. 🐯

Why yes, I did want to spend my evening and night having a nose that is simultaneously stuffed up and running, how did you know?!

Will we have two things to celebrate? I hope so!

The Tigers need to play this game quickly, because it is @grae.bsky.social's 50th birthday, and we have plans once she gets home from work. 🎂🥩

Celebrated my birthday at work today and my coworker had to make sure I was properly attired.

I’m going to be 50 on Thursday and I am still hoping someday to feel like an actual adult, but apparently not this year, either. (Yes, I know, adulting is dumb, but it’s actually a problem sometimes)
