I have to be somewhere at 8 am tomorrow and, frankly, I’m not sure my clock even gets that time.

Today I told a librarian that I loved how the library smelled, “like books and hope.” So she either loves me or thinks I’m a nutter.

I do not have kids but I saw some shitty child behavior recently. When do parents and extended family start telling kids they aren’t always adorable? I remember taking my own nephews to task when they were little (like 7?) and being assholes. Doesn’t mean I didn’t love them! But don’t be jerks.

Watson has spent a lot of this day barking and sometimes I really wish I could understand him. But then I wonder if it would just be a lot of “Someone outside! Someone outside! Caution!”

Come to the porch, love.
Look up at the perfect sky.
Holding the sun and the moon and the thunder in June
While she teaches the birds and the rain how to fly.

I want a store that’s just sample sizes of products you don’t want to commit to without trying first — shampoos, lotions, soap, cheese, toilet paper, laundry soap, new Dr Pepper flavors, funky candy, hair gel, deodorants, etc. Take the travel-size aisle in a big box store and just blow it up.

Thought my overwhelming exhaustion was just the world with a side of midlife changes. But my iron is out of whack so maybe not everything is perimenopause.

I didn’t realize how much I look forward to my annual “increase” letter until there’s a year with no increases. So no letter. You’d think we could still get a little note that says “Way to not give up, even though you came close to crying during yesterday’s meeting.”

My internal monologue saw the light of day in today’s staff meeting and I guess I’m sorry not sorry to have opinions about using AI as part of my job.

I just wanted to sit in the sun and read today. But instead I mowed the lawn and am about to pull weeds. I rarely wish to have a spouse but I DO wish I were independently wealthy and someone else could just take care of everything.

Lord have mercy on any man who comments on my brain fog with something “hilarious” like “you never get to make fun of me for forgetting a name again.” Because he will hear about my wildly fluctuating hormone levels whether he’s comfortable with it or not. I will not be silenced by perimenopause.

I’m tired of thinking about and then having to make dinner. Yes it’s a privilege. But it’s also a slog.

This weekend I have big plans to hang with my dog, putter around the house and generally gear up for another week of this nonsense.

I’m “bought this cute blouse for $4.97 at Costco and want to tell everyone I see about it” years old.

My dad’s cousin and her husband were hit by a truck while walking today. The husband died. My dad’s cousin is in critical condition. Life is short. Even when the world around us is shitty we need to enjoy what we can.

Didn’t feel like washing dishes and my cleaning people came today. So I just put the dirty dishes in the oven. Problem solved!

Someone parked so close to the driver’s side of my car today that I couldn’t even squeeze between the cars. Zoom in on me entering via the passenger side and hoisting my old ass over the arm rest thingie. I was mad and also laughing. But also mad.
