I'm a Swiss Army Unicorn and a born-again misanthrope. I do all my own stunts.
Made another batch of brown butter cookie bars for a bake-off at work. Was just told there are only crumbs left, which is a good sign.

I KNOW that at some point, I have said about the Orange Menace, "He'd blow you for a dollar."

I was half-joking. It sounded preposterous! However, if the tale is true, I guess I was right.

Zoomer coworker: Can I ask you a question?

Me (thinking it's work-related): Sure, what's up?

That question started with the statement, "My grandmother said..."

There was frost on my windshield this morning. I am not ready for this.

@bandlegame.bsky.social in one!

Mild panic when I saw the song was from this year because, yeah...no...

And damn lucky when it was the only song from this year that I could think of!

...Does this mean I'm getting a day off?

Aw, am I going to have to call people?

Good morning.

This one comes with a brief reprieve from leaving the house in darkness.

It would seem that Trump voters elected a house flipper without a contractor's license instead of President of the United States.

Today, I came in as a lumberjack.

It's in the 60s in the city, so here I am, regretting my life choices.

Also, since weaponry in the office is verboten, I carry a can of Axe body spray (which...) and tell folks that "I can't be trusted with sharp objects."

Your ear...mollusk... for today.

It's mine, anyway.

Brown butter M&M cookie bars. Besides regular and mini M&Ms, I added semi-sweet chips, white chips, and sprinkles. My BFF said that it's because I'm "extra". 🤣
So what if I am!

I'm browning butter for M&M bars I plan on bringing when I crash my cousin's Halloween party later.

I was invited, I just forgot to RSVP.

Now, which costume am I recycling for this?

Bailed on work early tonight to catch Miss M's game. Maybe it's the last of the season?

Last year, she had the team record for most yellow cards in a season.

I think we're both weirdly proud of that.
My niece, the enforcer!

I was almost taken out by a low-flying pigeon as I approached the employee entrance at work this morning.

I finally got to use my degree at work today, and I got rave reviews!

Apparently, there were 800 people protesting in my purple-ish hometown yesterday. That doesn't sound like much, but it's encouraging.

I, however, gave in to the cold I had been fighting all week.

But is it really a family vacation if someone HASN'T said, "Ya know what? Y'all are a bunch of assholes!"

You can't call in sick on vacation.

Power nap and power through.

I was out last Thursday and Friday, and I'm taking off next week,so you can forgive me for being a wee bit checked out this week and wondering what the point of it all is.

So, I have been crafting playlists as part of the anniversary celebration in my office (six playlists, to be precise).
Last night, I suddenly had the idea to make a list of favorite songs of all of us working there.
Management loved the idea, and we're running with it.
