I keep forgetting that Virginia Tech is VT and then being like, "weird that Vermont has such a big fandom in North Carolina."

I just got a high-quality version of a thing I have been wanting/needing for basically free through the power of sales and gift cards and now I want to make ~accessories~

Planning projects is a separate hobby.

Dammit, now I also want fabric to make matching shabbat dresses for me and my niece.

Just emailed a Spoonflower designer who is going to recolor one of her designs for me so I can make a floral star of david backpack for div school

When will Duluth Trading Company be brave enough to release their overalls prints as fabric?

How do we not have a Ravelry for sewing? I want to see what other people have made with this Etsy pattern, you monsters.

“And for this Rav Yirmeya was removed from the patio”

Accidentally woke up at 6:45 this morning, realized this is the time I will need to wake up for school, changed my alarms

Calling the vet and negotiating so I can bring Pumpkin in for fluids only if she poops again because we are just below the threshold where she needs to be seen

The thing I hate most about Ground News is the "it was created by a NASA engineer" pitch. Like, okay? So someone with absolutely no professional experience or education relevant to this field? Another person who hasn't bothered studying the field they're working in is going to *solve* media?

Met a new therapist today who told me it sounds like I need to write things down and make a plan to do them

I was looking for a highlighter when I posted this but later also could not find a ruler

Is getting into grad school my long-awaited excuse to sew a backpack from scratch even though I have literally a dozen existing backpacks in my house?

Time for everyone's favorite game: Do I Even Own Basic Office Supplies (No.)

"You just go to the state health department for vaccination records" *checks relevant state health dept websites* None of these computer systems were invented yet when I got these vaccines, and neither was my current primary care doctor.

Boomers will really become expert genealogists instead of going to therapy.

Terrible: this school uses something other than BannerWeb, a system I have been familiar with and troubleshooting basically my entire life (The UI is probably better for people outside the extremely limited niche of "learned to use BannerWeb in grade school to help my parents with computers.")

Just woke up sobbing uncontrollably from a dream about a childhood pet

Continuing my special (only) social strategy of making friends by just standing near people and talking too much and then eventually (within a day) asking if we are friends

If there's one thing meal delivery kits have taught me, it's that there's no corporate money on YouTube.

I continue to be unsure what is weird local stuff vs a national trend that coincided with moving to NC

Accepted to graduate school!

Very proud of "North Carolina" being the watchword for abortion in this TV show

"Have you ever adapted a vintage pattern and expanded the sizes before?" "I have been knitting for over 20 years, this project dares not cross me."

Book club members only want one thing, and it's discussing.

Nights like this--where I get home late and find Pumpkin lost in a corner and visibly decompensating--make me wonder if I am doing the right thing for her, but then I get her dinner and put her in her spot on the bed and wrap her blankie around her and she lets out this big contented sigh.

Had to explain to a teenager why he was looking up a group chat called "Small Houthi PC" in my phone to tell his parents I was on my way to drop him off

Aquarium shop did not have a yellow fish so instead I got a pink fish who is even bigger than my big pink fish
