I'm trying to convince myself that no man is worth battling with over and over again to stay a part of their life when they tell me they would rather be alone and melancholy than spend time with me.

I'll be on PTO next week. This morning I was sent a job to run Monday. I emailed my team lead to remind him of my PTO. He replied, "You can run it tomorrow. You're on-call." I had to stop from responding TF I am. OC weeks runs Sat-Fri. Now I have to tell them if I can't be OC on pre-PTO weekends. 🙄

My living room TV died. 😭

I suppose if there's a good time for that to happen, just before Black Friday & Cyber Monday would be it. Now to find a good deal on a 65" 4K unit.

Heading to Christkindlmarket Chicago this weekend. Should be fun, even though after mentioning it for years it took someone else asking to make my man finally interested in going. It will be my first trip into the city via Metra.

Just got home from seeing Wicked: For Good. It was such an emotional experience and I loved every minute of it!

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

My favorite perfect album of that year will always be Sign 'O' The Times, but this is another one.

I'm quickly getting tired of practically any "Hey Google" inquiry being answered with "Sorry, I didn't understand."

I just finished watching the #GBBO finale. No spoilers; I was genuinely happy for the winner.

I’m not on board with this whole waking up thing. Can I just linger in bed all day and watch football?

My partner introduced me to the Final Destination movies last night. It was late enough that we called it a night by the middle of the third movie. For someone who's not the biggest fan of horror movies, I surprised him by the amount of laughing I was doing at the various demises.
