My wordle starting word is whatever the solution to Betweenle is that night. I AM CHAOS.

Dang it bagel shops! Some of us want a tasty bagel any time of day! I’m wanting one now but just keep finding shops that close at like 2p.

I just made up a new word. Let me demonstrate it. https://nostrcheck.me/media/330ab8fc30391be4561bf7f03ff99f3d875660f39623c55c94071bdb28a69125/7e9231aad2127d5d9ff86dd38a8c9e56a3013bf93f2a9609dc79b951e71a38f1.webp

Very cool to be scrolling through my Google news and see a Chron writeup on "RATS!", a guano loco film I was lucky enough to be a part of alongside a crazy talented cast and crew.

Tonight's gig was really the first anything I've done since...well you know. It felt good. It was a great show and I felt like well needed it, band and audience alike.

Is Andor season 2 still filming and if so can anyone get me an audition? That would be a bucket list achievement.

I guess it's back to sleeping with the AC on. Boo. Stupid Austin weather.

I know it's time to stop, take a breath and have a laugh when I'm in the store and U2 is playing on the sound system, "It's a beautiful dayyyyy" and my involuntary thought in the moment is "Shut the fuck up, Bono."

IF you are someone who generally believes in meeting hate with love and kindness, but is having a real hard time with that right now, I HIGHLY recommend the Invisibilia podcast episode called "Flipping The Script." It may help you retain some hope. And also I am with you in this predicament.

I will no longer be going by age. On December 28 I'll be upgrading to Heath version 5.4.

For anyone who needs to know: The Creamy Creations Eggnog ice cream is back at HEB!

A cool sky outside HEB. https://nostrcheck.me/media/330ab8fc30391be4561bf7f03ff99f3d875660f39623c55c94071bdb28a69125/affd61b48d8572808c7184e7c441671399ca1c648f1ae4cfbad2ffbfc5fd489d.webp

Ever since seeing an old Key & Peele clip on TikTok earlier, I can’t stop remembering and laughing at “DRAX…THEM…SKLOUNCH.”

COME ON! GTFO summer! 88 on 11/13 is NOT RIGHT. I have a closet full of awesome jackets to wear! https://nostrcheck.me/media/330ab8fc30391be4561bf7f03ff99f3d875660f39623c55c94071bdb28a69125/15f8c57e2ae466666b60a03c81de3dbc7a3a444e3ef2653357816c761d1a00ac.webp

My puppy-like enthusiasm is both a good trait and a trait that gets me in trouble. Especially as someone who overthinks and constantly repeatedly worries about things I’ve said.

I’m finding some of my most core foundational beliefs as a human challenged and feeling untrue right now and I’m not sure what to do with or about that. I suppose the only answer is time and my own personal version of secular faith.

Today I’m finding particular joy in the tiny moments of kindness and humanity with strangers. Holding the door for someone at a gas station. Waving at a stranger as we pass each other on our walks. Waving at a car to go ahead and turn in front of me.

I mean, dumpster’s okay.

(Look I’m just happy the silliness center of my brain is still functioning, just let me cook.) https://nostrcheck.me/media/330ab8fc30391be4561bf7f03ff99f3d875660f39623c55c94071bdb28a69125/df30998ca8071690bef134463fee0fbd6d23bb057d816b0a8c94acf4681b1edf.webp

1:40pm. I’m dragging myself out of bed, going to get a free pizza, and taking a walk on this 73 degree (22.78 Celsius) day. I will not let my inner light be extinguished. (A mantra I must keep repeating.)

Hey minor victories! I have enough reward points for a free Domino’s pizza today! Score! Look, take your wins where you can get em!
