crispy hashbrown patties and chipotle lime hot sauce

somehow i survived the whole summer without a fruit fly invasion and yet in mid november they wage a hostile take over.  well played fruit flies.  well played. maybe every post will be about fruit flies.  you can only hope.

i didn't know that alex trebek died until friday.  it was mentioned off hand on the radio station i was listening to on my way to drop the toy drive drop off.  i shed a single tear for my jeopardy best pal.  there's nobody like alex and i'm going to miss him.

it's only five thirty and i'm ready to go to sleep for the night.  this may have to do with the fact that i went to bed super late and woke up unnecessarily early and it might be because i have my period.  i mean come on.  i had it all day and didn't know it.  periods are the best.  so glad they are silent leakers.  so glad they stain our undies.  haha imagine if the leaks were not silent? what would be the sound? it would be great if i could just get a text. "hi it's your period, i've started and you have 5 minutes until your underwear is compromised."  "hi it's your period again, you didn't listen to me.  now you are going to need to tie your hoodie around your waist and keep your back to the wall and shimmy on over to the washroom"  "hi it's your period, i know we haven't talked for a few months but i have a special thing to say to you right now--FLOOD.  thanks bye." "hi it's your period, the cramps and lower back pain are complimentary.  you're welcome."

periods and fruit flies. that's why my readership is so HIGH.

i joined katie and fam for their primary and come follow me on zoom.  mic and cordy were there on zoom too.  it was nice.  they always have good discussions. i also had rs.  sister newman was teaching and she shared a video and then forgot to take it off screen share.  i bunch of times i almost mentioned it because you could see her mouse moving like she was searching and didn't know what to do to get back to the regular zoom interface.  but i left it.  i just want the future generations to know what zoom is like. this is for the historical records. under the same category sister deyell gave an awesome talk but the first 5 minutes was garbbled internet sounds.  everyone was trying so hard to catch the words.  luckily she moved to a more receptive area of the house.  i saw ev my choir buddy.  she had her hair in a cute ponytail.  we sent each other a few messages.  i miss her.  i haven't seen her since the start of the pandemic.  i miss choir too.

i wore my red wrap dress with navy stripes.  i looked zoom fabulous.  it's not hard to impress on zoom.  no one needs to know you didn't shave your legs. no one needs to know you sang offkey while you were searching for the alto line.  unLESS you tell them on your blog.

My period would text me things like “ I missed you so I came back early.” Warning texts would be amazing. You made me laugh.

Mine says “hi. Wanna cry about everything and feel every emotion ten times more intensely than you normally would? No? Wanna know you’re probably overreacting but have zero control over what you say or do? Wanna feel angry and mean for no real reason when all you want from the people around you is for gentleness and extra love, even though your prickles are going to push them away? No? Too bad. It’s happening. You’re welcome.”
