Sally (the Eppic one)
@eppicsally.bsky.social
She/Her, progressive, New Mexican, former librarian, watercolor painter, photographer, loves geeky stuff. Lily is my dog. Married w/ 2 kids in college - a son at UNM in Albuquerque & a 🏳️⚧️ daughter at UAS in Juneau. TERFs & bigots can fuck right off.
I saw a raccoon this morning. I have never seen a raccoon around here. It was just casually crossing the street. Then I saw 2 bunnies in 2 different spots. Both of them watched me walk past instead of hiding. Seeing bunnies is less rare, but they always run away. Oddly, Lily ignored all 3 animals.

Another cool thing about Albuquerque: It’s so rarely truly grey & cloudy that I feel 100% justified, required even, to cozy up with a book all day when it is.

Yesterday…
Me: So who playing at the fiesta thing?
Kid: Waka Flocka Flame
Me: Is that like a Flock of Seagulls cover band?
Kid: No 😂 He’s…um…everybody know him..you know…
Me: Well, maybe not everyone
(I’m catching up by listening now)

Husband fell asleep on the couch after a very busy day out in the sun, so I’m watching 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and eating cheese & crackers for dinner. It’s an unexpected Me Party!

It’s predicted to hit 90° here in Albuquerque today or tomorrow. The previous record for the earliest day of the year to reach 90° was in MAY. It’s more than 6 weeks too early! 😭 🥵

If you’re looking for something to watch, Cold Storage is a surprisingly entertaining B-movie of the humor/horror variety. ($20 on Amazon now, probably free in a few weeks lol)

Husband’s parents sent me amaryllis bulbs. They are family heirlooms, cared for by his family as they bloom and go dormant for decades. They originally belonged to an Aunt who passed away years ago. I’m nervous about taking on the mantle of responsibility, but they’re doing great so far!

Wait. Stop. If you’re doing something that’s supposed to be FUN and you’re not having fun? It’s ok to stop or slow down or change how you’re doing that thing. Adjust until you’re actually having fun, because that’s the point.

I recently attended a continuing ed lecture on 19th c. British drama bc the course description mentioned “What the Butler Saw.” I thought that was an Agatha Christie type mystery movie. Reader, it is NOT. I have never been more wrong. It ended up being a lecture about dark humor in stage plays.

Kansas. 🤬 Creating legislation that only affects 1 marginalized group, thereby creating a way for authorities to round up that group & jail them, while also ensuring that the jails are particularly unsafe for that group…
That’s fascism.
