Wordle 1,360 2/6* 🟨⬛🟩⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Sometimes I’m a little sad when I solve it too quickly.

3yo, whispering: Mommy, I want jump around. Me: Okay, tell Echo you want jump around. 3yo: Echo! Play “Jump Around!” Echo: Okay. “Jump Around” by House of Pain from Amadei’s Spotify. 3yo: *happily bounces on trampoline*

Just like he said, "Show me how to end world hunger for $6B and I'll do it" so they did. And he didn't.

The hotel we stayed at was “Hotel Medieval.”

Overheard at work: Voice 1: $30M settlement coming down to whether or not a certain person can access a gate. Voice 2: I thought it was about obscene pictures and spray paint. Voice 1: It is. Because if this person can't access the thing beyond the gate, the defacement is more likely to happen.

Today's Pet Peeve: People who call and don't say why they're calling--just that they've called and would like a call back.

Me: What are you doing? 3yo: I want a cheese! Me: Can I help you open it? 3yo, whispering while pulling the wrapper off the cheese: No, I’m a big girl.

3yo: What are you doing? Me: I’m making you a hot chocolate because you asked for a hot chocolate. Husband: A hot toddy? 3yo: No! A hot chocolate! Hot chocolate is for Millie and hot toddy is for Mommy! I mean…she’s not wrong.

3yo: Did you make more duck soap for Daddy? Me: What? “Duck soap?” 3yo, pointing: Yeah, duck soap! Duck Soap:

Husband, cooking breakfast that stuck to the pan: Oh shit! 3yo: We don’t say “shit,” Daddy. Husband: You’re right and you don’t say it either. 3yo: We say “oh fuck” or “oh man.”

Me: Come eat your tater tots. 3yo: They’re not tater tots! Me: Oh, they’re not? What are they called? 3yo: They’re called…chicken poopy butts! And now there’s is a child running around the house yelling “CHICKEN POOPY BUTTS” and giggling.

3yo: 1, 2, 3, 4, 95! Me: I think you skipped a few there, babygirl. 3yo: Nope! I just did it!

Same cashier... Her, gesturing to the book I was holding: Are you enjoying the book? Me: So far! Her: I had to read that for a project I did in high school. Me, remembering this book came out in 2022: *goes into a brief fugue state* Uh, yeah, cool.

The conversation I just had with this cashier… Her: Can I get a name for the order? Me: Amy. Her: With a Y or an IE? Me: Doesn’t matter. It’s not my real name anyway. 😂 Her: It’s my name! That’s why I ask!

Just went on Twitter to see if I could get a screenshot of a post so I could make a joke about it and remembered that I'd blocked Elon so whoops.

The First Day of the Rest of Your Life Turning forty-three isn't a significant milestone, but Amadei chooses to make it exciting despite the lack of fanfare. Living in Georgia with her family, she balances work and motherhood while enjoying hobbies like reading and yoga. Amadei's reflections on…

3yo: *eating a macaron at the tea shop* Me: Is that a good cookie? 3yo: It’s not a cookie. It’s a macaroni.

3yo: Mommy, I don’t know what you’re doing. Me: I’m doing a crossword puzzle. 3yo: I want to do a crosh shift puzzle!

Me, getting her up from a nap: Okay, time to get dressed. 3yo: Where are we going? Me: We’re not going anywhere. We have guests over so you can’t wear jammies. 3yo: Who’s here? Me: Your Uncle John & Auntie Kaitie. 3yo: Oh. They’re not at their house?

Me, coming home from work: Is Mommy going to be able to sit down and relax? 3yo: That’s a no.

Why is the mom in every horror story an artist? This is almost as bad as the protagonists in literary fiction almost all being authors & journalists. Almost.

Me: 🎶 If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends. 🎶 3yo: Mommy! Mommy! Me: What? 3yo: I don’t like you singing.

Echo: [rambling on some notification] 3yo: Echo, stop. Me: Thank you. 3yo: She needed to stop talking.

The valentine my Latina coworker left on my desk for Valentine's Day. She is my new hero.

[driving to daycare in the rain when “Rain (Instrumental)” from Bluey comes on the radio] Me: Oh, that’s appropriate. 3yo: It’s not “appropriate.” It’s “Rain.”

I thought we all agreed that we wouldn't actually have to do any work the week of Thanksgiving. Someone didn't get the memo here.

These people on this Chimp Crazy show are absolutely bonkers. I cannot even.

Do I care about boxing? No. Do I care about Mike Tyson? No. Do I care about Jake Paul? Absolutely fucking not. Yet here I am, waiting to see this old man beat the shit out of a YouTuber.

As much as I want to interact with my friends, I also really want to stay away from politics for a little bit.

I have no idea what I’m doing with my life. AMA

You know you’ve reached peak suburbia when you choose which Target you want to go to by which parking lot you like the best.

What kind of day am I having? Well, I opened a cough drop, threw out the drop, and looked at the wrapper in my hand in complete confusion. How is your day?

I just watched my first episode of Are You Being Served? in about twenty years & it was everything I remembered.
