Working on a very special project I can’t wait to share (assuming the combination of metallic thread and illusion tulle does not kill me first)

Working from home with two rambunctious little monsters is so fun. Especially if you’re my attorney husband, and they choose your scheduling phone call with a judge as the ideal time to to sink both sets of their surprisingly sharp kitten teeth into your ankles 💕 #CatsOfBluesky

Me to myself while taking a delightfully nippy little 30 degree walk to cool off after eating a bowl of soup: “oh I just KNOW that girl Elsa had an overactive thyroid, too”

Look I’m not trying to be controversial and I don’t wanna place blame on anyone in particular but I think things really started to go south once we stopped that one trend of editing our cats being bastards to the intro to “Year Zero”

Jim, on the other hand…Poor boy inherited his mother’s attention span and is constantly frazzled, flying out the door with his face half done.
To be fair, he’s functioning better than I am with the one eye lined and black lipstick on the bottom only. I’m lucky if I remember SPF #CatsOfBluesky

Happy Halloween to everybody but my former coworker who would hype/beg everybody to come into the office dressed up but would then would pull something like turning up in normal clothing + a Wayne’s World hat, explaining “lol I’m Wayne [peppering of halfhearted movie quotes]” to costumed officemates

Spouse has been giving me shit for using “regular-degular” in conversation, and my description of something as “funky-wunky” just now was met with ridicule as well.
I said, “Well really when you think about it, regular-degular is just the opposite of funky-wunky,” and now he’s not talking to me

As you enjoy picking and carving your #Halloween pumpkin, remember the farm workers who labored to grow and harvest them. Let's give a big thanks to the Salinas CA farm workers who harvested these pumpkins that have ended up at local pumpkin patches and area stores. #WeFeedYou

Jim and Jarvis are hell on wheels this #Caturday! They met two dogs (the ladies walking them were very tickled at my stroller of kittens) AND saw a fire truck. Three times, as its driver seemed unsure of its destination and circled the block. #CatsOfBluesky

Happy Gotcha Day to this nonchalant hellbeast who watched as his father, sick with Covid and probably dehydrated, lost his balance and fell while trying to refill the cat food bowls, scattering kibble hither and yon. #CatsOfBluesky

It took me the better part of a day (and a whole tube of Loctite), but I successfully repaired my boy. Let’s hope he holds up 🤞🏻

It’s not important in the grand scheme of things, but I keep thinking about how my Trumpy aunt who keeps “everyone’s entitled to their opinion”-ing my mom once stated that she does not like cats “because they have squishy bellies” and all I’m saying here is that they are all A Certain Type Of Person

It is with deep sorrow that I report a mass casualty Halloween decor event in our neighborhood, brought on by some freakishly strong winds that blew through the other day.
My beloved 12-foot skeleton, the basis of my entire personality for the month of October, was among the fallen.
