BFF invites us over for dinner and I ask what time. She says "we're eating really late today, at 6:30!"

Us, who usually eat at like 8pm: That's sooooo late, we might be in bed by then

Direct quote from me: "I'm tired of young white dude protagonists, give me an older Asian woman with creeky knees who can still kill you in an instant any day."

Much thanks to Fonda Lee & Shannon Chakraborty for making my dreams come true!

Update on talking cat: Evie used the "help" button for the first time today. I was confused because until now, every button push has been a variation on "play." But she wanted me to open the window for her! She actually did need help! So proud of her for using her words 😻
We're trying to train our new cats to talk using buttons. There's 3 that my cat Evie uses consistently: play, pets, and all done. Just now, she walked in, hit "all done," then went and laid in her bed. I've never felt closer to her 🤣

I'm watching Legends of the Hidden Temple, and I feel so bad for the kids who lose. Their little faces are so disappointed! Then they're like "you're not going away empty handed, you get a gift!" And it's like, a box of nerds or a yoyo 🤣😭 Watching this as an adult just hits different 🤣

Woke up like this. Guess I'm never moving this leg again.

I'm now the type of person who has strong opinions about WWE wrestling, so there's that.

Why is *this* the Guardians game I came to?? Oh right, free blanket. At least that was worth my $20 probably 😭

Every time someone asks why we moved to Cleveland from NOLA, I'm going to send them this article.

Sister Sage wanting everyone to just kill each other already so she can fuck off into the mountains and read forever in peace is so relatable.

I'm flattered by how often I get asked "is there nothing you can't do?" There's actually a lot I can't do, but also, within my lane, no, there's actually nothing I can't do! 😁

This Guardians game is wild!

Thanks, Gmail, I don't need your bigoted editor.

It's so funny to see the people who actually care about the weather and the people who don't. There's always a couple people in the chat who are like "it's not that bad, it's literally not even raining" and then others who are like "I'm in the basement with my cat."

There have been 6 water main breaks since Jan. 31 in NOLA, and 12 boil water advisories this year so far. When I tell people that the infrastructure in NOLA is so much worse than Cleveland, some think I exaggerate. I don't lol

This is the first year where I truly felt in my bones that "everywhere else, it's just a regular Tuesday." Bradley & I celebrated, but no one else around me cared. I don't actually miss Mardi Gras for a lot of reasons, but it's definitely weird (& wonderful) how contained it is! ⚜️

Found a brewery doing a Mardi Gras party! Having gumbo and beignets after having Popeyes and king cake earlier. A proper unhealthy food day.

Eating Popeyes and King Cake here in Cleveland today and thinking about all my people in NOLA. Happy Mardi Gras!! 💜💚💛

New fear unlocked that I never had living in NOLA: that a very sharp icicle will break off and fall on me from above when I'm entering/exiting a building.
