I guess the reason I don't like talking about my day at work that much currently is that, invariably, when I'm at the dinner table and I get asked how my day was, my sister lectures me or provokes me saying "So have you talked to admissions about going back to school" and I'm just like trying to ease away from that, because I could use less people staring at me from across the dinner table utterly disappointed in me
#I mean ya know I am the labelled disappointment of the family but#Like for real.#Any work story#Even if its like Joe was such an asshole to me today!#Bryan you should apply to trade school and get your BA#And Im just like :l#Im vastly overwhelmed by work life balance and living in this house and IIIII#Dont think school is for me?#Currently?#BUT how do I fucking say that to you when youre looking at me like Im actually a bum?#And the fucking oldest kid wanted to jump in and be like UW Bothell has a great campus its close to your work!#Yeah kid not the point#I get them wanting good things for me#But my sisters stern disapproval#Just makes me think she just sees me and they all see me#As the failure to launch loser uncle#And I could use less of that#And less being grilled#When Im just trying to eat some soup#Sigh#I really shouldnt tell anybody work stories huh

a Clarisse x fem! Child of Nyx reader where she has a boyfriend but is cheating on him with Clarisse. Clarisse knows about him but does not care a smidge but always gets jealous and possessive and maybe some smut?
Okayy, ill try
You stare down at your plate, poking at your food with a fork. The potatoes not looking as appetizing as they did when first gotten. The laughter and yells of children becomes too loud to ignore as you dramatically ditch your fork, ready to leave. You walk up to the flame, scraping the food of the plate and into the fire.
You watch it burn, lost in thought, until you feel someone tapping your shoulder. You turn around coming face to face with Clarrise La Rue.
The one who'd been plaguing your thoughts. Memories of your last time together flood back into your head. Her soft curls cascading down her shoulders, you stare in amazement. You'd always wonder how someone could look so perfect. You study her features as you bothel stand in deafening silence.
"Hey?" She said breaking you out of your trance.
"Hi" you replied.
For some reason during all this you only just remembered you had a boyfriend. Thomas was his name. He was kind and sweet. Constantly checking on you, giving you gifts. He was supportive and never judged you, smart in a way that didnt make you feel dumb. Heck he was pretty good looking. But everytime you tried to remind yourself that he was who you wanted, who you needed, you could only think one thing.
He wasn't Clarrise.
You had been thinking so deeply you hadn't realised the look of concern that the girl was givimg you.
"You okay?"
"Yeah yeah im alright" you say looking past her meeting eyes with Thomas. He looks at you, an eyebrow arched, silently asking what you were doing with her. You suddenly felt your palms get sweaty, being nervous. Feeling almost as if you were caught in the act of a crime.
You looked back to the child of Ares, "I think i should go though, bye."
Just as you were about to leave, she grabbed onto your arm. Pulling ypu close before whisperimg into you ear.
"Meet me later, okay?"
I nodded my head before speed walking away.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Okay guys, i think i like the idea of this book so expect a Part II
I dont really know what to name it but I'll decide eventually.
Byee😘

So Seattle maintains a bike facilities map and now with the light rail 2 Line starting up this week they're keeping one, but there's none for Northshore and North King County and the thing is
we connect to all that stuff
so I'm making a connector map. I have pretty good info for Shoreline, Kenmore, Bothell, and parts of Lake Forest Park but not all of it. Woodinville and the unincorporated east is a LAND OF MYSTERY to me tho so if you have data point me at it okay thanks
(this isn't anything I've ever used Tumblr for before but there's a first time for everything I guess lol)
(also kirkland has an official bike lanes map but 1) it's five years old 2) it doesn't show routes that actually exist and 3) it DOES show routes that ABSOLUTELY DO NOT exist so fuck that)

Do you have any recommendations of like servant/master stuff? Boss/employee may also work but like personal assistant employee? Someone who knows the most intimate details about their employer and understands the better than anyone else but uh oh they're hot? Ty
Sure!
The Duchess Hunt by Lorraine Heath is pretty much exactly this. The heroine is the hero's personal assistant/secretary (it's a historical romance, he's a duke) and he asks her to help him find a wife. She's been in love with him for years, so obviously she's like ".... it's time for me to leave ...." which is what wakes him up to the fact that he's obviously OBSESSED. I need to reread this.
Selina by S.M. LaViolette. Selina, who's a lady, disguises herself as a housekeeper and gets hired at this big gothic estate. The hero is going through some shit (he's adjusting, rather understandably badly, to losing his sight in an accideent that killed his friend and his wife) and at first hates her but then becomes emotionally dependent on her as she strives to do things like help adapt the estate for him, etc. It's really good.
His Valet by S.M. LaViolette. LOL YEAH. In this one, we would now call Jo nonbinary, but she uses she/her pronouns. She's been disguised as a man her whole life and been the valet of the hero for years, but is super obsessed with him and finally takes the chance to disguise herself as a lady looking for a loooover. Which means they hook up. Multiple times. And he falls in love her, being too dumb to realize she's the valet he's completely dependent on... It's EROTIC AS FUCK, and both edgy and sweet and has a great grovel.
Rules for a Proper Governess by Jennifer Ashley. The hero hires the heroine as his kids' new governess, but quickly becomes super fixated on her, especially an Oral Manner. The heroine was originally a street urchin stalking him, so it works.
The Nobleman's Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel by KJ Charles. M/M, the hero is a coarse veteran who unexpectedly inherits a title that's being challenged by his relatives. He hires the other hero as his secretary—which is a big deal, as he struggles with reading. And, you know, an illicit affair begins.
Married by Morning by Lisa Kleypas. In this case, she's his sisters' governess, and they butt heads from the start, but she's also like... kind of running shit, and he's of course completely obsessed with her while being in denial about it. Until he isn't in denial about it at ALL.
The Raven Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt. She's his secretary, on whom he's very much reliant, but he doesn't want to cross the line and as a results SHE crosses it for him by disguising herself as a courtesan, wearing a mask, and dipping over to sleep with him at his favorite bothel!
Contemporaries with this vibe:
Reckless by Stella Rhys. The ultimate assistant/work wife book. The heroine is his PA, and they start hooking up to burn off steam after a tense moment when she finds out her fiancee was cheating on a work trip.
Managed by Kristen Callihan. The heroine is the social media manager for a rock band, but ends up being the sort of work wife of the band's manager... And he also needs a platonic nap partner to help with his insomnia... and he masturbates while smelling her dirty panties...
On the Hustle by Adriana Herrera. The heroine is the hero's personal assistant(?) and quits at the beginning of the book, which SHAKES AND DESTROYS HIM, so naturally he follows her over to her new job doing renovations for a reality show.

Website Reveal: Kelly Burns
Kelly Burns is an experienced broker, whose background includes 25 years of title and escrow work. Already connected to the real estate industry, when a friend suggested she become a broker, she quickly transitioned into her new role and found a profession to love.
Following on the heels of completing Kelly's real estate business branding, it was time to execute on creating her custom website to match. Kelly's brand had a clear direction with clean lines throughout, a confident grey marble texture that could compliment any listing photo or other content, a pop of spring color, and her incredible tree-house logo. This would be a great brand to build a website on.
After talking to Kelly about her needs, we had a clear list of priorities that her own perfect website would need to address. It would need to do a great job of maintaining itself and have a level of automation so that she didn't need to manage it herself. In addition to Kelly's needs, we considered her clientele, many of whom are educated professionals like doctors and tech employees based here in the Pacific Northwest. Like her brand, it would need to connect with Northwest communities and showcase area expertise.
Local Connections
Kelly works around Seattle, in areas like Bothell, Kenmore, and Lake Forest Park. We established her local expertise and market connection by featuring local community guides prominently on her homepage. These are an incredible resource, packed with market data, listings, demographics, interesting facts, highlights of local businesses, schools, and even a downloadable market-report. Check out her local Bothell community page and see for yourself!
KellyBurnsRealEstate.com
Easy Automation
One of the best things about our community pages is that they stay up-to-date with fresh demographics and more. If a new school is built, it will show-up on the map. The downloadable market report updates itself just like the rest of the page, creating something fresh that both Kelly or her visitors can use anytime. New Quick Facts sidebars appear - sometimes featuring professional services, local health care, population facts and more - a cinch to copy and share on social. Featured businesses are pulled daily from Yelp, further building Kelly's association with her area. Even the area description stays current.
We also connected her website to her business reviews from Zillow. Now, anytime someone reviews her at Zillow, her site smartly picks the positive reviews to share at her website and Kelly doesn't have to do anything.
With her connection to her MLS, Kelly's website also showcases always-current listings and saves her time by adding both her own listings and recent solds to her website.
Is your website delivering on its promise? We build interactive, gorgeous real estate websites that align with your brand and goals.
Learn More or just Book a Demo today.
What Does the Future Hold?
There are tons of great features for Kelly's business to grow into. She could connect a CRM (customer relationship management) tool for even more automation, but already her website keeps track of her visitors and emails her anytime they have a need or request a market report. When Kelly needs content, her site has real estate specialized AI tools to get it done. Should she take to Instagram, we can integrate her Instagram posts onto her homepage and automate even more visual, local connection into her website.
Kelly, we had a great time building your website and the peace of mind that you have knowing there is a place of your own on the Internet that takes care of your needs and represents you so well!
Need a Site of Your Own?

Strange Mail
View On WordPress
Weeks ago when I was super sick with Covid someone named Micheal tired to tell me there was something wrong with my car. I had never told them about the make and model of my car, or let them walk me to my car so how did they know anything happened with it? Creepy stalker crap this seemed to be. Then another strange thing happened with my mail. The Mercury club in Seattle, WA wanted to offer me a membership. I applied for membership YEARS ago when I was visiting my aunt Trish living in Bothell a suburb of Seattle, and they said I lived too far away. I had never given The Mercury my new address, and yet mail had been forwarded from one of my older Virginia addresses to me! How did they MAIL that crap? How is Virginia LESS far? Stalkers-stalkers all around! Proof positive people are sharing information about me behind my back, and getting it wrong.
I am a domestic abuse survivor, and have had many ex-boyfriends many times steal money from me, punch me bloody in the face, and stomach. People on the Internet need to STOP forking information over to "friends" who say they want to "help" women in that stalker criminals say that sort of thing too ALL the TIME. The Internet is sadly a treasure trove of dangerous information and misinformation. I have been to some great night clubs, with fun nights, and had good relationships in other areas. In Virginia the clubs are nothing but con-artist abuse factories for bad men meeting new victims. This is why I go on SO MANY road trips out of state, and go FAR away to be social as often as I can hit the road by car, or Amtrak, or road bike. This is why I keep a P.O. box far from my home. An important aspect of data privacy many Internet chat boards forget to mention is do not use home addresses. Simply put don't talk about women's personal information behind their back you are NOT helping them, and getting it very wrong.

August was definitely an odd month.
It also felt like two months. There are definitely events during the early part of the month that seemed like they belonged in July. There are even things that happened after the fifteenth that seemed of another age.
The summer/fall thing had a lot to do with that oddness, I’m guessing. We are, after all, now living in the season of Fall.
Booooooooooo. 😡
August was a busy month for Linzy. She played gigs at The Cottage in Bothell and The Rustic Cork in Mill Creek where we enjoyed a lovely evening with dear friends.
The band she's in, The Little Lies (a Fleetwood Mac tribute band) played to a packed Taste Edmonds crowd on the 11th. The other band she's in, Midnight High, debuted their new album, Swimming Lessons, at the Tractor Tavern in Ballard to a packed house and a lot of love from that audience.
The month was a busy one for me in a number of ways, the most interesting of which was exploring the use of Generative Fill in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe's AI tool that enables serious manipulation of reality. For example, we were at a Public Storage place with friends when I took out a chair, placed it in the middle of the road between two buildings, and had our friend's son sit on that chair with a big smile plastered on his face. With not terribly much effort, I replaced the background trees and sky with a sun-soaked jungle. I also replaced the road with a brighter chunky cement surface and toy dinosaurs running all about.
Seriously.
Toy dinosaurs.
As if they were giant set pieces I'd brought down for the occasion.
Couple weeks later on a particularly bright and hot weekend, I took another photo at that Public Storage, this time with plenty of room for…
A giant public swimming pool.
No kidding. It actually looks like a public swimming pool complete with a net for water sports, barely a couple feet from our van.
I did a bunch of stuff like that across the month, figuring out this tool. Mostly illustration-y things. But those photos at Public Storage continue to capture my attention because of how strikingly real are my additions.
Kimmer, of course, continued her work from home with Ballard Psych. She's also fully gearing up for her Doctoral program at The American College of Healthcare Sciences in Portland. It's an exciting opportunity for her and, from the sidelines, I can see the experience is fixing to be pretty incredible with all the resources they're already making available to her.
For our family movie outing of the month, we all convened at The Crest Theater in Shoreline to watch "Barbie" and compare notes. It's fun to watch, definitely. It's filled with a lot of laugh out loud moments on top of a metric ton of nostalgia. It's creative as hell, great casting (did not see Rhea Perlman coming, for example), wonderful performances all around. Definitely a lot of social commentary that, in a nearly full theater, resonated with a lot of different people at different times according to their experiences... as well as lighting up universals that are obvious (of course) to everyone.
One of my favorite quiet moments of August was a comfy weekend afternoon when Kimmer 'n I drove into Ballard, grabbed some burgers at 'Lil Woody's next to The Majestic Bay Theaters, and drove further west to that spot overlooking Salmon Bay where the water empties out into Shilshole Bay. At that overlook is a patch of grass with a park bench on which we enjoyed a lovely lunch together.
Those sweet moments are not nothing, you know?
Insanely Small World Award of the month goes to Lerin Herzer who opened for Midnight High at their album release show. Lerin, it turns out, is the daughter of Linzy's Jr. High band director.
Dang.
The previous winner, by the way, is Harry Wirth III, Linzy's bandmate in The Little Lies who was also in a band called Molasses, a band in which Linzy's High School band director also played.
Speaking of Linzy's high School band director, he recently referred one of his 2023 graduates to me to talk shop. The student's about to embark on their university experience and wanted to ask questions about being a professional creative. We covered a lot of ground during our conversation and, once again, much to my chagrin, I found myself advocating what once I used to roll my eyes at whenever the Music & Video Business director at the Art Institute of Seattle would bring up his pet advice: networking.
He talked about it a lot.
And we all rolled our eyes.
Only, you know, he was right and even though I frame the advice in terms of community and chasing your career as part of a group with compatible skillsets, yeah.
I'm singing that same old song.
Networking.
So that's it for August (and summer, apparently).
Eight down.
Four to go in 2023.
Onward!

5 Mistakes to Avoid When Building a Deck
If you're looking for materials to build a Seattle deck for your home, there are several options to choose from. we provide Fast and Reliable Deck Maintenance. Tacoma Custom Decks
Mistake#1 to Avoid When Building a Deck in Seattle
Deck builders Auburn There is more to building a deck than just slapping down some lumber and slamming a fence. Here are some things to look for in the deck-building process.
First and foremost, you need to figure out what kind of deck you want. You can choose to go with a freestanding ground level deck or have an attached one built. The latter will cost a bit more because of the extra framing. If you decide to have a hot tub, you'll need an extra structural support system. Deck builders Bothell
A deck is a great way to add value to your home. It can serve as a gathering spot for friends and family. But it is not without its share of problems. For starters, you need to follow building codes and local ordinances. This includes obtaining permits and ensuring your home is safe.
Mistake#2 to Avoid When Building a Deck in Seattle
When building a deck in Seattle, there are many important things to remember. Whether you are building a deck yourself or hiring a contractor, you need to make sure you have a good idea of what you are looking for. It's important to get at least three estimates before choosing a contractor. Deck builders Des Moines
Before starting construction, you should have your deck plans approved. This will ensure that your deck is safe and meets building codes.
You will also need to know the height of your deck. The highest height of your deck should be no more than 36 inches above ground. If you choose to build your deck higher than this, you may be required to have a permit.
Deck builders Edmonds Another common mistake when building a deck is not securing your beam connections a beam may fall off a post if the connection is not strong. To keep the beam from falling off, you should use beam splices to attach it to the post.
Mistake#3 to Avoid When Building a Deck in Seattle
When building a deck in Seattle, you must be aware of the local codes. This will ensure that your deck is safe. Besides, it may add value to your home. Depending on the jurisdiction, you may have to pay a small fee and submit plans. However, you can do this yourself or you can hire a professional to do it for you. Deck builders Everett
In addition, you will want to choose the best materials for your new deck. Wood is the most popular material used to construct outdoor decks. You will also want to choose treated lumber with a high copper content. Copper has been shown to help prevent wood rot.
Deck builders Federal Way Other important components include a solid handrail and lighting. You must also ensure that drainpipes, air-conditioning units, and other fixtures are accessible.
Mistake#4 to Avoid When Building a Deck in Seattle
When building a deck in Seattle, you need to take care of safety issues. A poorly constructed deck can collapse, causing injury, or worse. You may even be killed. The internet is full of videos about such disasters. But there are steps you can take to avoid them.
First, make sure your deck is built on footings. Footings must be at least 12 inches deep in undisturbed soil. They should be set 48 inches below the average freeze level. Depending on the location, you may need to dig deeper. Deck builders Issaquah
Secondly, you should use structural metal framing connectors. These connectors are designed to provide a solid connection between your lumber and posts. Structural metal connectors must be corrosion resistant and rated for the size of your lumber.
Mistake#5 to Avoid When Building a Deck in Seattle
Deck builders Kirkland It's a good idea to learn the basics of building a deck before you hire a contractor. Fortunately, there are many websites available that will help you get the information you need. Once you've learned the basics, it's time to start talking to contractors. Ask them about their licensing and insurance, and be sure to compare all aspects of their estimates.
Depending on the location, your deck may require a permit. You can expect to pay an average of $500 for a permit. This will ensure the safety of your deck. Without a permit, you may have to tear it down. Deck builders Lakewood
Building a deck is a complex process, and you should plan it carefully. Many things can go wrong if you're not careful. Having a solid design and a permit will keep you and your family safe.

Kitchen Remodeling Services in Bothell, WA
Some consumers have the misconception that they can design and remodel their kitchen without the help of a professional. There are a lot of things to consider with such an undertaking, and not just aesthetic ones, like electrical layout or plumbing. It is important to have a professional take care of your kitchen remodeling project so that you avoid any missteps and get the results you deserve. This article will provide some helpful tips to see if it is time for your kitchen remodeling project.
When considering whether it makes sense for you to hire professionals for your kitchen remodeling project, make sure that you know what these professionals are capable of doing. It is a good idea to speak with previous clients to get their opinions of what they liked and didn't like. You need to make sure that you are finding an experienced kitchen remodeling contractor to take care of the project.
When hiring a contractor for your kitchen remodel, look for one that has experience with the type of material, tools and appliances that will be used in your kitchen. A contractor likely has plenty of work in other kitchens using similar appliances and materials. Make sure you get recommendations from people who are familiar with the project so that you can get the most qualified person for your job.
When you are planning your kitchen remodel, try to stick to the following tips:
You want to create a space that will feel comfortable for you and for others. When you live with people, each person, even though they are loved ones, can have different opinions about the kitchen. You want to make sure that your kitchen is something that would be comfortable and fun for everyone who uses it.
It is important to work with a professional when you are planning a kitchen remodel.

Why Diagnostic Imaging Is Important In Chiropractic Care?
Many car accidents occur each year, and they can lead to whiplash or other injuries. If you have been in a car accident and are suffering from whiplash, your chiropractor may recommend that you undergo diagnostic imaging at Mill Creek Chiropractic.
Imaging may help them determine the severity of your injury and figure out a treatment plan that will suit you best!
What Cases Can Prompt Your Chiropractor To Send You For An X-Ray?
The most common tests done by diagnostic imaging include x-rays, MRIs, CT scans, PET Scans, and bone density exams like DXA Scanner (Dual Energy Xray Absorptiometry).
A mill creek car accident chiropractor may deem it necessary to carry out an x-ray or imaging on you in certain situations. Examples of such cases may be;
Your chiropractors can ask you to get an X-Ray if you’re involved in a severe road accident.
When you’ve suffered significant traumas, for example, falls from heights greater than five feet, your chiro can ask you to get an X-Ray.
Your chiropractor can require an X-Ray if you’ve had previous surgery on your neck.
Chiropractors may recommend an X-Ray for you if you have signs of a fracture in your lower back.
If you have worse pain with your neck or spine movement, your chiropractor can recommend an X-Ray for you.
With a history of trauma and a spine that is vague, your chiropractor can ask you to get a scan.
Your chiropractor can ask for imaging if you have an infection or an abscess in your spine.
If a patient has a history of cancer and has been going through treatment, the chiropractor can ask them to get an X-Ray.
If you are immobile or can’t sit up straight with your feet flat on the ground, a chiro can ask you to seek X-ray services.
If your condition shows vague or unclear symptoms, a chiro can ask you to get an X-Ray before proceeding with any treatment.
The Importance Of Diagnostics Imaging In Chiropractic Care
A diagnostic radiograph can provide your doctor with crucial information about what's going on inside of you. X-rays and other images can help diagnose issues like arthritis, bone fractures/dislocations (i.e., from falls), tumors, congenital disabilities, and more.
It may also give you peace of mind by ruling out these possibilities.
A chiropractor will also take x-rays to rule out anything like scoliosis, which can cause chronic low back pain for no reason at all! Diagnostic imaging should never replace an appointment with your local chiropractor because it's best to see what they think first before getting more tests done on you.
If you do have some minor injury, then diagnostics just help give them an idea of how bad things might be so they know what course of treatment to recommend.
Now that you know why you may need diagnostic imaging, we at Mill Creek Chiropractic have state-of-the-art equipment and internationally qualified, talented car accident chiropractors. We offer excellent diagnostic services and treatments to patients.

One of the favorite things I do these days is hang out with Linzy at her Rustic Cork gigs. Usually I'm on my own. Sometimes with friends or friends of friends. And occasionally, like last night, with one of Linzy's dear friends.
What's different about these gigs is that they're a bit of a self-contained bubble. A small one, though. Not like the festivals or packed clubs with The Little Lies. Something like The Cottage in Bothell although it's much louder in there and Linzy is very in the background.
Every venue, every experience is different of course. I'm just thinking about her performances during the fall and winter at the Rustic Cork. Maybe because of the darkness, we seem to have taken an offramp from the rest of the world that's a tiny universe all to itself. Just tucked away to the side.
It really is charming. And peaceful. And kind.
It's perhaps the one experience that's most like the ones going back to middle school: Linzy. Her guitar. And her voice.
Oh sure, there are profound differences. Like she gets paid now. Like this is her profession. Like people come up to her and ask where else she's playing. Or when she'll be back next.
Let's just say, then, that this experience at least reminds me of those other ones from her past. From our family's history.
And it really is self-contained. For whatever reason.
Last night I was sitting at a table with one of Linzy's dear friends, a genuinely lovely human being. And I got the question.
You must be proud.
And I got to say the thing I've been telling people lately that, while it was pride when she was growing up, going to school, going to college... now it's something else. Wonder, maybe? This kind of astonishment that her professional career is legitimately happening?
Wait. Isn't that what you guys were going for?
Maybe. I'm not 100% sure. I'm thinking more that we threw a lot of support into her pursuit of music. Into her writing and performing. Into her education.
We may have imagined oh she's gonna be a musician when she grows up. Of course she already was a musician. Paid or not. Grown-up or not. There are just so many ways to manifest "musician" as a profession in the world.
So it's not like her career is taking me by surprise. Although maybe it is just a little. Like wow. This is happening. It's really happening.
It's maybe a little of the feeling of winning something. Of just winning, I don't know. It's definitely impressive as hell.
At the table last night, I explained some of this to Linzy's friend. I got the chance to recount the origin story of Linzy the musician and some of the other stories that came to pass as she learned and grew and became. All done in this little hideaway at the offramp from the world.
There's just something about music, you know? Something about relaxing an evening. Something about dinner and getting to know someone new. Good company. An impeccable meal. My favorite wine. Enjoying the charm of these moments. The peace baked into it.
And the kindness of everyone there.
😊
