Is this where I become famous?

In a horrible twist of fate, a couple is getting engagement photos at the lake I run by after work, and the bride to be is wearing the same jumpsuit!

Was trying for Link in the Fire Temple but ended up closer to prison jumpsuit. Either way, I’m fighting evil!

And what do we think about the crop top for my first day of teaching? Too conservative?

Back to school beauties, plus a picture from Simon’s PERFECT birthday gift, a trip to SporcleCon! Leo is starting second grade, Fox first, and I’m back at school for the (redacted) year. The plant fairy (my mom) visited my office today!

I need everyone to know that I not only said yes but I invested in a Swarovski crystal troll because that is surely the answer the all of my problems

There’s a rare, tropical brown booby roaming free in Indiana at the moment and no one knows how it got there!

Happy happy pub day to @miriamgershow.bsky.social, whose novel is beautiful!

Sometimes a book finds you (me!) at just the right time. I’m an @alinaetc.bsky.social superfan (and she introduced me to my new boyfriend, Rilke) and I have deep personal connections to Romania and to Alabama, both of which have such texture in Alina’s poetry. Alive, spiritual, inquisitive! Fun!

My dear friend @arammrjoian.bsky.social has his debut novel out TODAY! You must read it.

I’ve admired @charlesjensen.bsky.social’s poetry and memoir for so long (the fact that he’s hot and was on Jeopardy! has nothing to do with it I swear), so I was over the moon when he sent me these questions from his Writer’s Style Guide series. His newsletter, nanogram, is just wonderful. Such fun!

I have a choir concert tomorrow and we are supposed to wear black pants and a colorful top. And I think I found the perfect one! 💖

Why yes I even have crop tops for chilly days!

Wandering around my house like a gay(er) Miss Havisham while my beautiful gay gothic hotel novel is on sub.

A fresh start? Or has he lost it? Why not both!

Our sweet Fox is 6! He’s been a supernova of joy since the day he was born. He’s happy, generous, kind, smart, beautiful, and curious. He loves Bluey and WWE and baseball and his grandparents and his brother and reading and Minecraft and basically everything. We are so lucky to be his dads.

Today’s reading theme is: new/newish books by absolutely amazing writers named Claire/Clare!

The day has arrived! I finally have 666 unheard voicemails. Is the secret to forever in them? Is evil in them? Is this the 9th gate? Is my inbox Jacob’s Ladder? Surely there is some sort of apple-temptation-apple-iphone joke I should be making?

I love you!

Dressed like Trinity because we are breaking free from The Matrix today, people!

I felt Serena in the atmosphere and then I turned to the tv and she was there! 😭😍
