A week later… Im still sore & now Im sick.. gonna have to mask up and do a 6 hour Nutcracker rehearsal on very little sleep. I’m overwhelmed & need a break. Or a hug.
Got a tooth pulled yesterday. It is kicking my ass today. The only time I wish I wasnt single is times like this. Im gonna have to get out, go to the store & get a few things. No I do not trust instacart & door dash… wishing I had someone to care about me while I am in my feelings today & in pain.

Making chili… I used the expensive bone broth w tumeric & so far it is tasting really good. Gonna simmer on low for a few hours.

Also just wanted to say Im glad Halloween was on a Friday bc I always hate teaching those tired kids with their post sugar crash/stayed up too late Halloween hangover. 🤣

My bestie who has been on remicade for most of her adult life for chrons disease just found out her insurance wont cover it anymore & the broker she is working with said “no insurance companies will cover it”

so I am asking for a friend: Do you know a knowledgable health insurance broker?

Webster Groves businesses are amping up a large food drive this month.

I volunteered SkyStone as a drop off site. I will have more details to share next week.

If I never had to go to south county again that would be fine with me.

So far this week: Flat tire that ended up with nothing wrong, sis got food poisoning (she is fine now) broke a tooth eating soft foods(which pushed me to get Dental Insurance) then the power went out for an hour on our block at our business bc of an underground electrical fire.

So fun.

Well I finally had to move my arm. So she got up. And not a minute later this one got herself snuggled up. At least my arm is free so I can get some work done on the laptop. I think they are having a turf battle, but it is a super slow moving & polite one. 🤣

She got snuggled on my arm which is falling asleep at this point but if I move her she will yell at me so here we are.

Met today with a prof from Wash U who just finished a book about the Performing Arts in Branson. She wants to include me in some book events since I worked there in the ‘90’s. Then went to a pointe shoe fitting for a student. On my day off. I deserve a prize for this imo. ☕️

This cat of mine is so cute.

What is better than a cat on a lap?

2 cats on a lap.

Solid day: Got the car & driver’s license both renewed, got some groceries & a matcha, cleaning the loft, got invited to speak at an event for a new book coming out by a colleague at Wash U, the weather is nice.

If it were not for the fascism it would feel like a nice normal Friday.

I have a lot of work to do. Janie is so snuggled up tho.
September 28, 2025 at 10:12 PM
idk but I feel like taking away the commissary on military bases or as the drunk former Fox news host now dept of war leader said “getting out of the grocery store business”…. is not going to be well received.

What are we having for lunch? I need some ideas.

Something I think about a lot is how Cori would have been raising hell these past months vs the predictable and very loud silence we have received as a community from Bell.
