Kate’s allegedly a human (although increasingly right-wing bigots would say otherwise). She’s definitely not a vampire, despite what some other people claim. She’s also mostly built out of spite and overcoming oppositional-sexism, racism, and other random bullshit.
So she’s either a human or a lizard in disguise sent to destroy all of humanity.
Either way, she’s here to reassure that it’s all fine.

I have used my snow day…
…for some work, but in my break I’ve called my state rep and the house oversight committee. I’m a bit concerned by the fact I got through. Last time I tried to do this, I spend the day being redirected from engaged tones to voicemail to mailbox full errors. This time I got straight through.…

Today I have an unexpected snow day
It’s not like I couldn’t get to work, but the campus is closed, which is quite annoying as I have stuff to do. So instead I’m stuck at home with not enough of my stuff (I should have brought more work home with me, but I seriously didn’t expect it to be closed today). Bah.

So I’m unsure if our house progress is going to be one of those things where making progress is going to feel like a sisyphean task, or whether its like we’ve shoved a glacier enough and now it’s going to move inexorably forward. I doubt the latter, but it does feel a little like we’ve…

And or decisive nature comes out again
So we’ve been pretty settled on the house design for a while. It didn’t thrill either of us, but we were pretty happy with the general thing. Then we watched the entire 2016 season of Grand Designs. And we remembered that a big part of why we want to build is to create something interesting…

I see this as a bit of a problem
One of the things which concerns me about the situation here is American exceptionalism. See, America is exceptional, it is unique. But then so is every other country. Every country is unique and different and a special little flower. Some things are better here, some things are worse. The US has been responsible for some…

I suppose I don’t really know
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. I mean, I know there’s been sporadic posts, but my old frequent posting schedule has gone by the wayside. That’s mainly down to the new job, but some of that is not being sure what to say. I mean, talking about what’s going on in my life seems…

Quick question
Did anyone keep the receipt for 2016? I think we need to take it back, it’s clearly broken.

Fuck.
Well, fuck.

Today was.
We were definitely going for some kind of adulting / granola lesbian award. – Home made pancakes for breakfast (spelt…) – Already cleaned the house this weekend… – Hardware store for implements of destruction – Farmer’s market (just after opening) for our shopping – Coffee at a local coffee place – Home for lunch (rather…

Well, it’s been a while
So the quiet around here, which those of you familiar with my blogging will be well aware of, is because of the new job. See, the new job is challenging in a way that is totally familiar – I feel way out of my depth, I feel stressed and anxious, and I spend approximately every…
