Ellen. Really.
@elliewing.bsky.social
Beer lover. Cat person (and all animals). Single mom of a teenager. Sports lover. Be my friend - all the kids are doing it.

Live in Denver - have lived in WI, KS, CA, KS, and AL (in order) prior.

Teams - KU, Cubs, Royals, Chiefs, Nuggets and others.
Pinned
I must say - I’m astounded my birthday selfie went viral (maybe?) and that is ridiculous. So, for those of you checking in - I love sports, beer, my son, and my cats.

Look out for KU takes, live sports check ins, beer drinking selfies, sport event selfies, and single mom ponderings.
I need KU to bring me joy tonight.

I thank Auburn for sparking some joy today.

Surprisingly, maga isn’t jumping in my mentions on FB today as much as with Renee Good. At least, not yet.

Driving back US Space Force base is weird.

People are oddly in tune with me today - 2 people I thought of texted me within 30 minutes of me thinking of them.

The Timberwolves-Warriors game in Minneapolis has been postponed by the NBA, sources tell ESPN, in wake of a man shot and killed Saturday in a confrontation with federal agents in the city. It's the second shooting there in a week, third this month, involving a federal officer.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: "Thank God. Thank God we have video. Because according to DHS, these 7 heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against him or something. It's nonsense, people. It is nonsense and it's lies."

Quad box is running. I need to do nothing else the rest of the day.

Horrific things are happening, but Gilmore is really enjoying the belly rubs this morning.

West Wing S3E4 - Ways and Means. After a long talk with Nicholas and finishing up Manchester, I’m doing an unadvised WW episode and a glass of whiskey. Maybe an extra episode.

Anyone?
Do any KC peeps want to venture out in the snow tomorrow to see Neko Case at the Uptown?

I won tickets and don’t want to make the drive. Free to anyone that wants them.

West Wing - S3E1 - this is a real rough one.

It’s still cold outside. But moved out very from Station 26 to 4 Noses. Still looking good drinking beer.

Happy Friday, y’all. Stay warm. Looking good drinking beer.

Here was my tv rotation for tonight, just because it was weird, sports (tri box till Pitt), Pitt, Starfleet Academy, Traitors.
January 23, 2026 at 4:40 AM
Side Bangs laugh in the Pitt - that’s me. Also mirrored by the Chancellor in Starfleet Academy. A witches cackle. Happy for it.

Y’all - Nicholas drew himself a bath and is enjoying a matcha and bowl of chili. Good for him.
January 23, 2026 at 4:22 AM
Holly Hunter in repose. I enjoy.
January 23, 2026 at 3:59 AM
I’ve been told that we need more vanilla syrup for the matcha. What’s the best venue for syrup, @scribblymoth.bsky.social?
January 23, 2026 at 3:57 AM
Gilmore appreciating my laziness.
January 23, 2026 at 2:31 AM
We won’t get much snow here, but it’ll be cold for a couple of days, so I made chili tonight. Planning on going to Pilates in the morning, working from the brewery in the afternoon, and heading to Nicholas’ bball game. Then just snuggling through the weekend.
