If I'm ever hanging out being pretty quiet and making a really focused pondering kind of face, 95% of the time I'm thinking about Jordan Knight wearing a Bauhaus shirt in the You Got It (the Right Stuff) music video from 1988

In Like a Lion, Out Like Who The Hell Knows
In March of last year, I thought I could see the light at the end of the tunnel.

A client last week: "I watched a bad movie and I thought of you."
Me: 🙂
Her: "It was called...The Accountant"
Me: 🙃 "oh no"
Her: "he's autistic. & he's an accountant--"
Me: "i have HEARD of this one"
Her: "& it makes him really good at killing people"
Me: 🫠
Her: "...you'd be great at killing people"
Me: 🙂

Rising from the dead to say that even when things are stressful and intense and weird, when I sit down at my desk and open a client's books, I get a lil exhilarated "heehee weeeee!" feeling which is nice because I really like my job but also i think DOES make me kind of pervert.

Just picked up my vyvanse and the pharmacist (who knows me due to the sheer fuckton of medications I've picked up in the last year) handed it to me and said "have a great one, I'll see you soon at the work camp the government is sending us all to". That was funny of him. I had a little chuckle.

Sept 2023: the IRS creates thousands of new positions in order to focus on compliance audits *specifically* for large corporations and high earning individuals
Feb 2025: DOGE fires thousands of IRS employees who are still "probationary" (read: purges all staff hired in the past couple years)

Crazy feeling to be googling surgical options for complex labral tears & early osteoarthritis of the hip while your whole body is achey from swimming & inflamed from residual immunotherapy side effects & to have your photos app notify you that this was happening on a random february day 10 years ago

A pro tip for having a small dog is always buy doubles of your little hoodies, in two different sizes, just in case you get her a large cat bff down the road and they need to coordinate their fits. Doubles is safe.

We did a last minute airbnb switcheroo for a valentines weekend bud getaway and somehow lucked into an insane midcentury paradise for half off? It had like 3.5 living rooms and was filled with cool shit? House so nice it had us contemplating squatters' rights...

You guys I just discovered something that blew my very own mind. If you're out & about in the world & you have a nice interaction with a person working customer service, it's still a free enough country that you can call and ask to talk to the manager and be like "hey that person is cool as hell"

This is why I like to yell "PEOPLE DIED FOR THE FREAKIN WEEKEND" when I see anyone working their office job on a Saturday or doing overtime without being compensated accordingly. 40 hours a week is still inhumane imo, and the price for making it the norm was LITERALLY blood, sweat and tears
Once again, way too many people appear to have forgotten that the reason strikes and labour laws exist is not because workers need to be coddled but because they were the less messy alternative to the factory owner getting burnt alive inside his home by the workers
Trump already empowering the worst bosses to just.. ignore labor law.
Whole Foods workers won their union vote, and now Whole Foods (owned by Jeff Bezos) is saying they simply won't recognize the vote because nobody is going to make them.

Guys I wrote another music review that's posting soon and I almost used BOTH "mise en scene" and "je ne sais quois" but edited them out/replaced them with normal people words when I did my final pass because I am a paragon of restraint. Please clap.

A wild thing i learned last night is that once you have not had a period for 12 months or more, you are considered "post-menopausal". I haven't had a period since like 2 months into my chemo treatments sooooo...ok? That's where we're at then?? Barely into my 40s and on the other side of the ~CHANGE~

One time I had a date tell me that I was an "aggressive listener" and my level of eye-contact felt "very intense"
Anyway TOTALLY UNRELATED, my therapist is calling and emailing around trying to find someone who can assess me for autism haha

I don't know how to form this into a joke but a couple years ago Mike got some of those big ugly white on white new balance sneakers & then almost immediately got really into seeding and maintaining our lawn and a couple weeks ago was monologuing about how cool a carport is, as a concept.
