My 9th grader who hated every second of middle school and also pushed back last minute kinda hard against going to his small STEM high school just said his day was good, and when asked how / why it was good said, “Because I like school.” and HOLY FORKING SHIRTBALLS; WE DID IT, JOE. 🎉

This week was a long ass year.

The dead animal is still in the neighbors’ yard and they seem to have not noticed. What are the odds that they, as Covid deniers, got Covid at some point and now can’t actually smell it? 😬

There is a dead animal between our fence and the garage of the neighbors we don’t talk to and like…how have they not noticed? It’s been increasingly smelly for several DAYS now 🫣

This book is lovely, and I hope you’ll read it ❤️

Having severe anxiety and depression does not make it easier to promote a book about anxiety and depression, it turns out. It just makes you nauseated and withdrawn. But I am so proud that it’s an Elizabeth Walden Award finalist. Will you help me spread the word?

You know that recurring gag in My Cousin Vinny where the guy from the bar wants to fight over $200 and keeps showing up trying to start shit? That’s my week except it’s a 7th grader popping up in my email every few days to try to start an argument over her detention assignment. Child, just stop.

Not only does the 9th grader’s school use a different grades platform than every other school in the district, now they want me to sign up for two extra apps for the archery team 🫠 #braintoofullformorepasswords
