STL via KC. Product Manager, rescue dog mom, hard cider aficionado.
On hold with BMW financial and their hold music is Freebird on loop. I feel like I’m at a biker gang funeral.

Accidentally used the term “raw dog” at work today.

Fuck Tim Cook and Zuckerberg (especially that little nerd) and Elon and every other tech bajillionaire who went to the inauguration today for their reach around.

That’s all I have to say about that.

We need to grab a few things at target today and my bf said do you just want me to go do a curbside or do you want to go in and browse? I said whichever. And he said let’s go in and browse. I know my baby likes to browse.

Browsing target is my love language.

I just watched Mischa gobble up a cat turd like it was a little bite sized brownie. She used to have dignity.

The dogs opened their presents today. I think giant lambchop is a hit.

The dog just hit her step goal for the day turning circles in her new bed. Good for her.

I’ve finally told the requisite people IRL and also nobody follows me here so here we go: we are vacating St Louis in the new year for either my motherland (KC) OR Detroit. I can’t believe how much STL grew on me over the last 13 years (!!) but excited to explore new breweries with my guy and dogs.

The only thing worse than Alan Rickman doing a German accent is Alan Rickman doing an American accent.

For the deaf dog, I get his attention or say hi by waving to him. Like to him that’s his name. I was just standing in the kitchen waving at him on the couch and as I did so, a guy walked by the house and clearly saw me waving and thought I was waving to him. I think we are both mortified.

After 6 months, Al’s beloved giant turkey from Costco has sprung a leak. Costco doesn’t have them and I can’t find them anywhere else. Please send tips on giant bird toys for Albert.

A hallmark Christmas movie about a woman who disassociates post-election by exclusively watching hallmark Christmas movies. That woman is me.

Fantastic news I am here now and my algorithm is JUST ANIMAL CONTENT.
