Preserved for your enjoyment! In the evening of May 30, 2023 my neighbors had.. a marital disagreement. These were my contemporaneous observations posted on Twitter.

"My neighbors are loudly fighting. I think someone was cheating.

This is me right now:
Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎄

Merry Christmas Eve! I just supplied Erna with enough eggnog to sedate an elephant. 🤭

I'm jetlagged and slightly pink from the sun. I'm positive several new Thai friends at Wonderfruit thought I was some kind of tiny luminescent she-demon.

I'm home.

Hello, Thailand, I am in you. 😈

If I sort of know you and you're at #wonderfruitfestival don't hesitate to reach out.

Look for the ghostly pale pixie! I'll be roaming and available for emergencies, too. ❤️

Stay hydrated out there!

I feel like I've been flying forever. I live in the sky now. 😭

Happy Turkey day, everyone.

My pants will be fighting for their life in just a handful of hours. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

The turkey is ready to love you. Whether you baste him or not. 😳

My grocery store had pickles on sale. BOGO.

Ask me how many jars of pickles I own and why did I stop at 8? 😅

Construction on my new bathroom starts tomorrow.

Erna and Jane will be house sitting.

You may remember these ladies from my "oldies-but-goodies" board game night.

OBG has informed me there will be no "shenanigans" or "malarkey."

Erna is bringing a rolling pin. 🤭

Random OR thought:

If we could form an alliance with the octopus kingdom they'd make excellent aquatic special forces.

My idea of a perfect meet cute.
Hallmark needs to start making Hallowe’en romances. She’s a gal from the big city seeking a new life in a small town. He’s a mysterious horseman cursed to throw his flaming head at passersby for eternity. And when these two meet one night, sparks, and heads, will fly.

My Christmas tree is now up. I will not be taking questions at this time.

I will be accepting delivery of eggnog, cider and smoked sausages.

Drinks that double as a charcuterie board 🤌🏻

I'm going to get an Oura ring because having my car's GPS bark commands at me just isn't enough these days.

The ovulation train has left the station. Next stops, crazy town, eating a jar of pickles, aggressively folding laundry, and obsessing about Christmas charcuterie tableaus.

I very much need a native Korean speaker to yell at me until I fully understand when to use "b" and "p" and when to use "g" and "k" in translations. 😭

I'm re-watching Dexter.

I realized why I like this show so much.

Dexter is Batman.

Today is one of those days.

My safeword is "waffles."

New drinking game for the holidays.

Play "Santa Claus Got Stuck Up My Chimney" by Ella Fitzgerald. Take a shot of your favorite booze every time she sings "chimney."

Winner is the only person left alive.

Today is St. Martin's Day - Old Halloween! 🍂
Marking the end of harvest/ start of winter, it is a time for bonfires, lantern processions, feasts and wine.
Welsh folklore tells us it is a night of eerie ill omens: owls hoot, meteors fall, and the Cŵn Annwn (spectral hounds) roam.

Urology Friend: "What are you reading?"

Me, on my phone: "I'm fluttering. (Laugh)"

Urology Friend: "It's too early to hear about whatever that is."

Me, looking up from my phone: "Wait, what are you talking about? It's Bluesky! Oh no, nope, you get that look right off your face!"

Me, too. If you followed me and I haven't followed you back, please nudge me.

Some of my mutuals have new names or icons. I'm a visual person. Therefore, I am lost. 😭

Best of luck to you, also, Leah!
