Reader. Librarian. Lawyer. My mouth is unruly. I've been told I'm zesty! Lover of things and (some) people. Watcher of sports and cooking shows. And dramas. Midwestern core, PNW present.

♏️ ❤️ That sore spot everyone keeps stepping around is about to get stepped on. Your partner keeps pushing for more access to your space and you're about to show them exactly where the line is.

The thing about all these men is they could date anybody. They're rich, they're famous. They could bag socialites or models or actresses or whoever. Instead they single out the most vulnerable women and girls they can find. They cannot form relationships with women who are their peers.

I used to LOVE THESE and now I’m wondering why
Three Musketeer bars. Just no.
Guys, I really need to talk about something dumb and meaningless. What's a universally beloved sweet treat that you think is just mid? For me, it's meringue.

Honestly, i haven’t heard anybody ask “Where’s Hillary? Why isn’t she helping?” Yet everybody wants to know why Kamala ain’t saving us. Don’t even get me started on Barack. He did his time. It’s all of our business but only SOME people get heat for not being seen.

Good Morning, my loves. Happy Monday. Well, semi-happy. It's raining here, and I'm really starting to hate it. BUT, on the plus side, I get to go talk about romance this afternoon so at least there's that.
But to get there, I have to drive in the rain. 👎🏾
I hope you're having a good Monday.

“Retraining” won’t help when the experienced ones are doing the dirt.
My main takeaway of the Pretti assassin name leaks is they’re both long term veterans of 12 and 8 years respectively
They weren’t six month new hires
Tear down all of DHS

On January 24th, my parents home burned down. They and my disabled brother escaped with only minor burns but they lost everything they've ever had.
I'm running a GoFundMe to help them recover and rebuild. I would be deeply grateful for any donations but also for any shares!

Just read article from Forbes about the passing of Desmond Wilson who played Lamont on Sanford and Son. The article says Wilson was married to Cicely Tyson in 1974 and they had six children together. Uhm. Is the Forbes AI drunk?
