My wife looked over my shoulder and saw this and said

I mean I guess 10 years ago my body was less cranky?

There’s a reason we call it the breakfast alarm when the smoke alarm goes off first thing in the morning

Not sure I believe those stories about women sleeping their way to the top.

I’ve improved my sleep hygiene as much as possible with an old woman’s bladder, I can sleep anywhere and at any time, and it hasn’t even improved my job prospects let alone my employment.

POV: you are fighting with autoconf m4 macros in the same outfit you went to a play hours earlier in.

(I’m trying to get m4_foreach to expand a list into macros but the list comes from a shell variable and I hate myself)

Ok. I didn’t do it for prizes but I came in 3rd. Anyway enjoy this pic of me with my prize, I took a donated bag of coffee beans which is hilarious because I don’t drink coffee.

I had no team so it was just me. But, two turkeys, 20 pounds of potatoes, some veggies, some underwear, gloves, and socks… and a few funny photos!

Update: the necklace, which I’ve had even longer and bought with what money I had to put together a wardrobe in a bleak time, came apart while I was taking it off.

I hope I can fix it.

Today’s outfit for talking with middle school students about their ideas for improving their parks.

One little detail: found these earrings 9 years ago, cast off in Pittsburgh. I was among a group getting a tour of a building being rehabbed after being empty for years.

This is hardly the most ludicrous thing I’ve done. Hauled a second bike sprawled over a trailer for repairs. Hauled my (previous) wedding invites to the post office. Hauled leftovers of a catered work meal to a queer youth drop-in shelter.

Here’s the invites

Hilariously, overloaded, bike, and trailer as I make a drop food not bombs

10 years ago today I was in Austin for work.

Having met a local trans friend for the first time days earlier, I joined them on city hall’s steps for a Trans Day of Remembrance observance.

I still have the glass stone I took that day.

We lost many more since, including my partner Amelia.
