This was exactly what we were told by a neighbor when my son was an infant (good sleeper, good eater, generally easy baby). “You will think you did this, you did not do this. The only advise you can ever give is “get lucky”.” We recognized it as deep wisdom and have adhered to it ever since.

All credit to the amigurumi makers…they have a vested interest in tight, well stacked stitches. I would never have noticed if I hadn’t tripped over one of their explainers.

I have crocheted for well nigh on 40 years off and in…and only recently learned there was a difference between yarn over and yarn under. Unders are, I think, inherently looser and larger stitches? I don’t know that it would account for peek-a-boo shirts, but might to be a place to start?

I’m not crying. My face is just leaky like that.

That is simply stunning. Great job!!

That sounds awesome. We’re eating a lot more beans here too. I may see if I get on the waiting list.

This is strong magic…but if it fails, may I suggest: pitch a tent known to be slightly leaky and loudly say “I mean, it’s not supposed to rain, I’m sure it’ll be fine”. Seems to work for my husband with astonishing consistency.

Someone should warn the NM DMV folks that they’re going to feature (briefly and painfully) in an award winning short at some point. No, wait…that might not discourage infuriating behavior.

One of my favorites. I kind of loved that a rewatch was how my kid learned to love Shakespeare before the school could beat the heck out of it.

Brilliant, lovely, and so very thoughtful. I’m sure she will!

One would think. And yet, this particular mediocre hack seems ill equipped.

To be fair, she’s not precisely great at saying things more than one way. She may have just not been capable of saying something different.

Omg! She’s perfect! I never thought there would be two!!

I was scrolling through and Gyoza stopped me in my tracks. I had a “wait, that’s my cat” moment. Including tax of Gyoza’s twin, Portabella…currently napping through her shift as home office assistant.

This sounds lovely. So glad you got to have that day.

They are soooo slooooow!! I can’t use them unless I’m REALLY confused and need to see all the steps.

This had my whole household laughing out loud. Good emotional medicine today.

Honestly, check with the airline’s lost and found. From: a mom who has retrieved retrieved her son’s Switch in Heathrow and his phone in Incheon. You may not have pitched a no-hitter, but you can still get the save.

This is awesome! My program had us give each other 20 minute tech-free, off the cuff “chalk talks” for a similar reason, you should be able to explain what you’ve been up to without jargon or slides to people in a related field. This sounds like those on elite level! Really important skill.

I’ve been playing with idea of mittens for Christmas…and I think your beautiful ones have sold me! Those are lovely!

Hang in there! It’s always darkest before the etc. Also, if it helps, not once since graduation has anyone in my professional asked me what my o-chem grade was. They don’t all have to be As. Once you get the degree, the crazy things you obsess about as a student fall away. You’ve got this!!
