If you’re looking for transition from journalism writing to grad school writing, just know that you will always, always be short of your word count minimum.

I finally watched “My Cousin Vinny” last night. Mona Lisa is who I want to be when I grow up.

Man, there are SO MANY places I have to update my legal name. Good thing being married is worth it.

Watching the Alabama/Michigan game. I'm hoping they both lose and have a bad time.

I color-coded a Word Doc a few weeks ago so I would know exactly what I wanted to do with each part.

Trouble is, I can't remember what the colors mean.

Every email I’m sending today has the subject line: “DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THIS UNTIL AFTER CHRISTMAS.”

Well done, everyone!
We're halfway out of the dark.

My husband and I are in the process of combining our books. He worked in a library for 10+ years so he insists on organizing using the Library of Congress method. I’m left baffled.

For my birthday, my husband got me a soda can insulator and THROWING KNIVES. 🤩

My husband has been obsessed with this lamp for months, which I found to be mostly hideous and way too expensive. But we found one 42% off. So the mostly hideous lamp came home with us.

He was so excited.

Update on the French press: My husband bought this 64 oz. Yeti French press, which also doubles as a blunt force weapon.

Every year, I spend weird amount of time worrying that the prize turkey that Scrooge brings to the Cratchets’ is going to be too big for their oven.

If there is one thing I’ve learned in grad school, it’s that academics love to say that things are in tension with each other.

I was making some coffee when our French press decided to explode. Hot coffee and grounds everywhere. Nearly sliced my hand on the shattered glass.

I’m looking for French press recommendations, preferably ones that don’t explode.

I love my husband with all my heart, even when he gives me a cold during finals week. 🤧

Why do I own a stein if I’m #sober? It’s my coffee stein for those especially early mornings.

We have two sets of stairs at our new townhouse, one going up and one going down. This sweet pup keeps using the wrong ones looking for us. 🍯🐶💕

Nothing makes me more irrationally irate than when people don’t know how to queue properly at the Sam’s Club gas pumps.

About 97.5% of our stuff is moved in. We’re sleeping in the guest bedroom because our new bed hasn’t arrived yet. It feels like we’re staying at an Airbnb, lol.

We’re at the point in moving where we’re just throwing shit into boxes. No labels. No hope.

I hate moving.
