Adding a Little Art to my Office and World

Do y’all know about Etsy? Yeah, I shouldn’t go there. It’s dangerous. But I’ve been eyeing some art prints from Purple Top Hat (purpletophat.etsy.com) because her work is whimsical and beautiful and makes me so darn happy. They arrived in the mail yesterday and today I got them framed on my wall. From left to…

I’m sick to my stomach

I’m sure all of you know about the SCOTUS ruling this morning overturning Roe vs. Wade, a 50 year precedent on privacy. The landmark ruling allowing abortion as a right of privacy has been overturned by a religious and partisan court no longer working in the interests of the American people. I’M FUCKING FURIOUS.

We Had a Wild Visitor This Morning

When I got home from taking the Muirlettes to school this morning, look who greeted me? Actually, she didn’t care if I was there or not as long as I didn’t try to steal her breakfast. The female Cooper’s Hawk chowed down on a Starling and gave us quite a show. Gives a whole new…

Facebook and Instagram and WhatsApp, Oh my

How was your day on Monday? Did you get a lot of work done? Was your day less stressful or moreso? If you don’t know what I’m talking about, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp were all down.

Wednesday Randomness – That’s it, I’m Quitting!

Where my career should go and how I’m going to get there. If you…
