Hi. Okay. Sorry about the last couple of entries - it was just too much emotion plus too much bubbly (all-day celebration on Saturday, yeah!) and then I was too tired to write last night after a ...


Sunday evening and I’m tucked in bed and soooo ready to fall asleep. It’s been quite the weekend. There’s actually so much to say and not enough time to say it (I should already be asleep), so I...


We did it. We did it, motherfuckers. And I’ve been celebrating since Biden was announced the winner of the 2020 presidential election today at around 10:30am this morning. I just got home and i...


It’s coming down to a nail-biter, isn’t it? But I do have to tell you that I’m feeling better and better by the minute. Is it truly going to happen? Will we get that insane orange motherfucker ...


Ugh. What a day it’s been so far. Starting with my work laptop being weird - actually, that started yesterday - I left the office early because there were rumors of protests downtown and I want...

NJM 2020, Entry 4 - The Wooing

So. Election Day/Night is over and what do we have? Lots more counting left. I must confess that after I went to bed last night, filled with a few glasses of bubbles, I left the TV app open on...


Whelp, election day in the good ol’ USA. I don’t think we’re going to announce a winner today/tonight or even tomorrow, but I think we might have an idea. Maybe? It’s surely not going to be a l...


I love a fresh November. It feels like a new beginning. I had what felt like a delicious night of endless sleep (probably because I just checked my fitbit and see that I was asleep by 8PM, oh ...


Hello November. You woke me in the middle of the night and I couldn’t get back to sleep. My mind has been spinning with all kinds of thoughts, and I think we need to get to the bottom of it duri...

What Day?

Well, happy effing Friday everyone! Today is a day of Zoom meetings for me. Sitting in a bajillion meetings I do not need to be a part of, but I’m also at the office so I won’t be caught with my...

Gestures

Meh. I ended up staying in last night. Which was just as well because it was rainy and cold and nasty out and I couldn’t imagine wanting to sit out on any patio last night anyway (not doing ind...

Wuss-Out Tendencies?*

(Update at the end…) Hm. Okay. Need a little advice. It’s my birthday today, right? And S.S. asked me the other morning at coffee what I was doing for my birthday and I said that I was just g...

The S.S. Rescue

I hadn’t seen S.S. in a couple of weeks. Can’t remember the last time I’d mentioned him here in PB, but my brain has been a bit occupied with projects and interviews and such. Earlier in the mon...

In Honor...

In honor of my shitty day (see previous entry), I ate 10 sugar cookies. Self harm? Then I had a Zoom meeting this afternoon. Zero glitches, naturally. I gave a great presentation, and when it ...


Whelp. The presentation interview with Giant Corporation is over, and I am…slightly devastated. I did so much fucking work on this project. Like, hours and hours of digging through numbers and...

How to be Zen?

How to be zen about all of this??? One of my items (from The Line I Created) was photographed in a retail store by a random person and was posted on FB and it has gone viral. This item has now...

That Fly!

So. I didn’t watch the Vice Presidential debate last night, but there was no way I could totally ignore it because my college sorority sister girlfriends (the ones spread far and wide across the ...

Low-Key

So far the limit on social media has been good, though I seem to have replaced one social vice for another. Due to the nature of the news lately, I have gone on Twitter to check on what’s happen...

And it's Friday

Just because I’m no longer on FB or IG doesn’t mean I’m not getting the news. What do you all think about Trump getting Covid? Hmmmm? I don’t wish him death, but I certainly hope that this wil...

Social Media Diet

Debate Hangover

Hungover. That’s truly how it felt this morning when I woke up. I told myself not to watch the debates since my mind will never be changed, but I couldn’t help myself when I turned it on. And ...
