A sign you read too many romance novels:
A Spotify commercial came on and the voice said, “That spice is 10 out of 10, would recommend.”
And I thought, ohhh what book is this?!
It was an ad for Chick-fil-a spicy sandwiches.

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:

we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.

the climate crisis is here, all around us

4YO: Did you know there are people who just live together and are not family?
ME: They’re called roommates.
4: Can I be a roommate?
ME: Yes, when you go to college, you can live on campus and have a roommate.
4: Like with no mom and dad?
ME: yes
4: Man, I’ll really have to make good choices then

I love Luckytime.
But this is the best typo ever.

I don’t think I’ll be ordering the combination plate.

4YO: Alexa had a notification and told me there was a dance class in Springfield.
ME: She said dense fog warning.
4YO: So no dance class?

4YO: But we don’t have to?
ME: No, we get to!
4YO: I’ll probably just get up early anyway.
ME: OK….

I just sent my 100th press release for the year.

Just 15 working days until Christmas break.
Just 15 working days until Christmas break….

I just learned Wicked is a two part movie.
Why are more people not talking about this?
I feel bamboozled.

Overheard in the Letterman household: Bean, don’t bang your guitar on the ground. You’re not Pete Townsend.

Chappell Roan was at the Andy’s Frozen Custard by my house today.
My home Andy’s. The one we visit all the time.
And I missed it.

Clearly, this is a sign I need more regular custard visits in my life.

I’m at Subway and someone has placed an order for 75 foot longs.

Imagine: Happy Thanksgiving mom, I got this covered.

“The news is too much. I can’t watch it anymore.”
