Okay, the alien book is officially too horny for 8AM as I get ready to go to work. 🫣😆😳

I started a new 🎧📚 this morning while walking to work and I laughed so hard that I didn't even realize it was snowing and my hair was plastered to my head. "I Got Abducted by Aliens and now I'm Trapped in a Rom-Com" by Kimberly Lemming is exactly the hysterical nonsense we need! 🦕🦁📸🛸🔥

If you'd like to lose yourself for a while in something wonderfully strange and completely visually captivating, I recommend the choreography of Sergio Reis. Absolutely stunning!

I started First-Time Caller by B.K. Borison this morning in 🎧📚 and I couldn't stop listening. I read the whole thing in one day at 1.00x speed and it took 12 hours and I regret nothing! 😻😻😻😻😻 #booksky

I was reminiscing about blogs and remembered that I was a beta tester for Blogger when I was in high school in the late 1990s. I remember going on a long rant about how platforms like that removed the coder's hand from website design, that it made web content inauthentic. And now look at us 😵‍💫

Working on my second Day Pack Kerchief by @larkspurknits.bsky.social using some beloved nonsuperwash wool yarns from my stash. I am extending the size to eventually become a full shawl rather than a kerchief - this pattern is just so good! 🧶

A two-hour walk around Carburn Park with my knit walkin' buddies was just the trick to keeping me feel balanced 😉🤸‍♂️

I am in bed and it's not even 8pm. My allergies have been so terrible that I have had to start taking benadryl again. I guess being sleepy is the cost for keeping my eyes from simultaneously burning, itching and watering. My head is going to explode from sinus pressure. Snow mold can suck it.

While writing in my journal, I realized that I have been trapped in an anxiety spiral for the past week. I thought my hyper focus was a good thing so I didn't notice when it veered into hyper fixation. I was unintentionally called out for it at work and it's like I finally woke up.

Headed to IKEA this morning to look at some furniture I have been thinking about getting but want to see IRL so I don't waste my money. This means I got my Loop earplugs with me. It is truly amazing how well these work to keep me from feeling overstimulated. Not sponsored, just a fan!

I am not even sure I know what I did today. Like this morning felt like a dream and now I am in an art store buying origami paper. Rather than shame myself about being a space cadet, I am just gonna keep vibing because it's Saturday and like what is life anyway? 🙃

I cannot seem to settle on anything for longer than 3 minutes. Yes, I have taken my Vyvanse, but I've always seen that as a tool rather than some kind of "fix" for my ADHD demons. This is what always happens on Saturdays when I am home by myself. BLAH!

I cast on the Day Pack Kerchief by @larkspurknits.bsky.social today and I don't want to stop knitting! 🧶 This pattern is just too much fun! Yarns are Baa Ram Ewe Pip in Hepworth 💥 and Le Petite Lambswool from Biches & Bûches in Candy 🍬 What a clever way to play with colourwork!

I want to start a newsletter that is about my life and my niche interests. Basically something that I could invite my family and friends to subscribe to so we can feel connected. I don't want to use Substack because I don't necessarily want to make it a side hustle. Anyone got any suggestions?

Today, I woke up at 5AM, deleted Instagram from my phone and then baked the best loaf of no knead bread I have ever made. I feel excellent about both of these life decisions ☺️

Felt a little cooped up at home and decided to bundle up for a longer than usual walk to the grocery store. Not many folks out walking about in what feels like -28°C but I kinda love it. It took about 45 minutes before my toes started to feel numb 🥶☺️

I have been very distracted in my reading lately. Nothing has been able to capture my attention long enough but I am hopeful this mystery from Brandy Schillace will get me out of my slump. I think this is will cozy and relatable re: neurodivergent rep in the main character. Let's go! #booksky
