In which I’m currently quarantined. This entire post is tl;dr but I’m going to write it anyway because I’ve got nothing but time for the next 3 to 7 days. Wednesday I woke up, felt fine, got dressed, packed up my stuff, and was making a sandwich to take to work when I had that […]
In which there’s an item of furniture. Bought a coffee table. (Also bought a couch, to replace the air bed we’ve been using as a couch, but it’s not here yet.) Coffee table! It weighs a ton and reeks of finish, but I love it! Was expecting something much flimsier, but this guy’s solid as […]
In which I got packages that weren’t stuff I ordered myself from Amazon! Okay, I got presents, for basically no reason beyond the greatness of other humans, but first I gotta bitch about humans being stupid about THE TRANSMISSION OF A KILLING FUCKING DISEASE: The governor let my county move to Phase 2 re-opening last […]
In which it was deeply relaxing and refreshing. With the world on varying levels of lock down, Amma’s stuck in Amritapuri for the time being, and Her tours, including the summer North American Tour, are postponed (if not cancelled). So She’s directed senior disciple talks and local satsang (“a spiritual discourse or sacred gathering”) meetings […]
In which we’re having a GLOBAL PANDEMIC, guys. In case you haven’t had time to stay caught up, here’s a quick pandemic data dump. Oregon governor today bans dine-in, gatherings over 25 https://www.oregonlive.com/coronavirus/2020/03/amid-coronavirus-oregon-will-not-yet-impose-curfew-on-restaurants-and-bars-gov-kate-brown-declares.html Multiple states following CDC recs (the dumbass White House: ‘fake news’) https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/03/15/coronavirus-bars-restaurants-closed-states/5055634002/ Even fuckin’ Vegas is closing tomorrow?! https://vegas.eater.com/2020/3/15/21181058/mgm-resorts-closes-vegas-properties-march-16 Overview: – […]
In which I just looked out the window! It’s Sunday so we slept in and then went out for brunch. I had a veggie omelet (with sweet potato in it, for some reason) and hash browns and a side of vegetarian gravy because I love gravy. Then we came home and he studied for his […]
In which not much of anything! I like my job, I like my house, I got last Saturday off unexpectedly and spent it day-drinking and napping! It was so great! My relationship is lovely and lively, I’m richer than I deserve (I just ordered two bespoke dresses and have tons of food in the cupboards). […]
In which Christmas is in two weeks and I finally put up the tree! How is it Christmas in two weeks?! What the fuck, time. Of course, in Minnesota we’d have already lived through two blizzards and weeks of sub-zero temperatures, so the lack of brutal weather makes it sorta feel like it’s earlier in […]
In which I rode my bike to the store today! When we moved to M-F I decided I needed a bike. The grocery store’s a mile away, and there’s no way I’m hauling a gallon of milk an entire mile on foot. Work’s a half mile away, so a bike would cut my already-short commute […]
