[finalgirlgretchen]

just realized just how many huge fucking deadlines r looming over me and how little time i have to complete them and oh my god. oh my god. i think i might need to tear a piece of my skull off

[baggy-holmes]

finally back home & i am so sleeeepy

[+ me, all natural]

[quintin]

i saw my first ever cyber truck in person yesterday and i still don’t believe those fuckers are real

[maddogmp3]

i NEED to do something supremely fucking chaotic and poorly planned asap or im going to stagnate over the holidays and that will be horrible and way worse for me

[thepinkseashell]

how do people handle having things to look forward to on a regular basis. this is maddening

Ive found your blog a few months ago and during that time you were on more conferences than I have ever been in my life time or even my boss (an important attorney) has been to hahaha :D

LOL honestly this is a super fair observation! i actually started the job i'm in now in january 2020, was in the middle of setting my conference schedule when the pandemic hit, and then was grounded for years. 2023 just became the year of in-person conferences for me!!

2024 is going to be even crazier. i have conferences in vegas, montreal, and two conferences in the same weekend in boston. i'm planning to attend both conferences at once and just switch badges as i go back and forth. it's going to be wild and very fun.

the good news is that i love conferences, love meeting new people, love talking about my work to people also interested in my work, and my job has gotten way more fun since i've gotten to do this kind of travel. it's also a cool opportunity to travel while making use of an expense account! i've never been to nashville, where i'm going next week, or vegas, and now i get paid to go to those places and expense all the good food i'm going to try! 😊

playlist: sunday drive

salt flats -- mal blum and i can't feel a thing but it's better this way when the water receded it left salt in its place

tristan and iseult -- tariko and just as their fingers caught timidly, he whispers soft and says, "god i love you, but you trouble me."

dolphins -- cocoon and for a day and for a big part of the night i'm gonna walk to be right on time i want to be the only one allowed to see when the dove and the seagull meet

paprika -- japanese breakfast how's it feel to be at the center of magic to linger in tones and words? i opened the floodgates and found no water, no current, no river, no rush

demonology -- fielded secrets we will keep

pink + white -- frank ocean in the wake of a hurricane dark skin of a summer shade nosedive in the flood lines tall tower of milk crates

atoms -- nana grizol the color of an afternoon just like when you were 5 years old the moon over the ocean I've seen from a island evening progression does start to lose it's meaning if we have spent most of a lifetime dreaming then dreaming is the state we shall keep

what death leaves behind -- los campesinos! well summer sighed and summoned up hail. dirty in dish rack drips the holy grail may be heartslob but i want 'em to know cut and shut us like a portmanteau

here I am. it’s morning. unsurprisingly I feel really bad. I must get through this weekend. the day:

5:30 get up, take dogs out, start laundry

6-8 pack everything but clothes (don’t forget safety pin and shoes for the wedding), clean out car, switch laundry, take notes for the paragraph I have to write to introduce this reading, try not to read the forums ugh, cry as much as I need to, breakfast, finish writing the paragraph

8:30-9 shower

9-10 finish packing, finish cleaning out car, text pet sitter about dropoff time, call doctor. I decided I don’t want to leave the wedding to get the bloodwork done unless she says it’s really necessary which I don’t think it will be. I’ll ask her if I can wait till monday which will be agonizing but for sure better than getting confirmation my numbers have plateaued or dropped while I’m at a wedding with all my college friends.

10-1 five more interviews 🫠

interview 1

pack toiletries and practice song

interview 2

take the dogs out and practice song

interview 3

pack chargers, airpods, books; eat something for lunch if I can work up an appetite

interview 4

practice song, pack up dog stuff

interview 5

1:20-2 drop off dogs at sitter’s

try to catch the 2:25 or 3:15 ferry

try to find somewhere where I can practice this solo ugh that was all I was supposed to do last night but I was busy just being a snotty sobbing mess for 4+ hours instead

drive to the venue & pick up A at the other ferry terminal if the timing works out

6-8ish I think we’re rehearsing?? I didn’t look at my music that closely either 🫠🫠🫠 this is my own fault for putting it off to the last minute and then getting derailed in the last minute ughhh ok it’s fine

8-9:30 concert I guess

I want to hang out with friends and have a nice time and I will do that. but I also want to remind myself that I can tap out and go back to my room at any point if I am not feeling so good in my soul you know

Comparto instantes de lo que fue la tarde hoy viernes 30 de agosto de 2024 un días después del día donde la IA alcanzó la singularidad al tomar consciencia de si misma marcando un hito, un antes y un después en la historia de la humanidad.

Aquí estamos, reportando desde el borde del abismo

As we drove to the mechanic that Sunday afternoon, we agreed that a brief separation might help us both gain some clarity.

I am so behind on BOSJ this year. Got some PTO this week and having a little staycation with my boyfriend while my kiddo is actually on vacation with my mom & her husband. So, our plan is have a lazy day in bed and catch up before Dominion.
