My sister’s been a teacher for almost 30 years and she just sent me a video of her classroom it’s all perfectly decorated with her kids artwork and essays for her school’s open house tonight. She’s so proud of her students and she’s been so busy today she hasn’t heard the news
once at a party I was stuck in a boring group conversation then I remembered I had a banana in my purse so I pulled it out answered it like a phone and said “Sorry guys I have to take this” and walked away we are the masters of our own fate
She knew. She fucking knew and she powered through it and focused on the good because that’s what we do to teachers in this country while we pay them nothing and always cut their funding WE SHOULD PAY TEACHERS WHAT WE PAY COPS SINCE THEY ALSO PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE EVERY DAY
It’s important to shower every day. Blow out that hair. Put on office clothes. Pretend to type up some reports. Refer to everyone as your “new client.” End all phone calls with “Here’s my card.” Ask yourself for a raise. If you say no, embezzle. Right now it’s all about self-care
Just took a brown bath towel out of the dryer and instead of folding it I wrapped it around my shoulders and sat in a chair with my eyes slightly crossed and enjoyed some Bran time
I miss my mom. She loved reading and good wine and yelling “OH IT’S ALWAYS THE MOTHER’S FAULT!” at the TV. She was the realest. Call your mom if you still can.
Having an impossible crush is the stuff of life! It keeps you humble and always striving for better hair. Don’t get sad about it! Feel those 7th grade feelings! Yes I’ve been drinking cold brew shut up god
I hope you’re having a nice holiday my dad just presented me with a devotional illustration of St. Vitus the patron saint of comedians and epileptics who he’s been praying to on my behalf for the past 5 years 🤘
I told my therapist something sad/low self-esteemy and then said “I guess that’s a weird thought” and she replied “Well it’s a very high school thought” alert the burn unit
I felt bad because I couldn’t resist petting my sleeping dog and it woke her up but then I remembered she doesn’t work or contribute to this household in any way literally does nothing all day except sleep unless you count that big hole she’s digging by the patio adopt don’t shop
they refused to chop my wedge salad so now I’m just sitting here in a silent hotel room sawing away at a quarter head of iceberg lettuce like a goddamn pioneer
Bored? Put on solo piano music and do the dishes. Now you’re the star of a poignant indie movie about finally facing your fear of dishes and ultimately, death.
ME: I think I may not need therapy anymore.
THERAPIST: Would you like to discuss how you’ve been 15 minutes late for every appointment for the last 12 years?
ME: Unfortunately that’s all the time we have for today.
ME CALLING ROOM SERVICE: Yeah can you describe the mac and cheese to me like is it fancy and weird with twigs and shit in it or is it the classic solid rectangle that harkens one back to a rainy day in junior high hello are you there
My mom loved sleeping in on the weekend so I decided to capture it with my Disc camera. She tried to act mad but she was laughing too hard. She was the greatest.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms who work so hard to do it right♥️

I saw this pic earlier and just felt like I needed to share it with you. Definitely feel like these have to be related! Love the podcast and will be caught up one day!
My friend Adrienne took her first Southwest flight since the pandemic and halfway through it the old lady sitting next to her pulled out a king crab and ate the entire thing like it was fucking Lobster Fest in row C just FYI in case you were feeling jealous of the vaccinated

I guess I wrote that today is George’s birthday on her vet paperwork so they sent me this email and now I keep yelling ”There’s the birthday girl!” when she walks into the room and asking if she wants to go to Chili’s later she is not into it
It seems unfair that anytime I dream about someone no matter how odd or benign the interaction is I will wake up and be mildly in love with them for 24-48 hrs
The kids at my sister’s school are writing teacher appreciation notes and she just found this on her door from a boy she taught last year and now she’s crying like a big baby
