In other news, tomorrow after work, I should go play trombone at a rally in my neighborhood instead of going to yoga, right?
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This question means that your life is so damn cool. (Also, yes trombone.)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
aurelia, I think the "____ is a cop" may be a response to the twitter commentary around Kamala Harris' presidential run. There's a hashtag, #kamalaisacop.

It sounds cooler than it is, really.

Herding cats for fun
I don't know about that. Trombones have swagger.

"Trombone yoga" sounds like a filthy euphemism

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I socialized this weekend!! A grad school acquaintance hosted a dumpling-making party so I drove to Queens and hung out with a bunch of 20 somethings all evening. We made about 200 dumplings and ate most of them! And everyone liked my shortbread (as they should - my shortbread is DELICIOUS) and it was only kind of awkward to be hanging out socially with a bunch of people who literally could have been my children.
And then Sun-Mon I took my family to Kalahari indoor waterpark, which was AWESOME but exhausting. One night in the hotel/resort gets you two days included at the waterpark (day of arrival and day of departure) so we drove out early on Sunday and came home late last night. I'm not a fan of extreme amusement park rides, so I went on all the wimpy tube slides and the rest of my family enjoyed the scary ones with vertical drops and blind turns. And when I ran out of wimpy slides, I curled up in the indoor/outdoor swim-up bar/hot tub with a book and a strawberry daiquiri.
In other news, I REALLY REALLY want a hot tub for my backyard now.

If only you knew how filthy...

That sounds like an ideal weekend!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yesterday I got my feet 3D scanned at the fancy running shoe store. It was super cool, and confirmed that my feet are weird as hell and so wide that they might as well be flippers. It also confirmed that I'm wearing the best possible running shoe for my weird feet, which was pretty vindicating, like finding out that you're actually wearing the correct bra size.
So I really just need a new pair of my current (woefully old) shoes, which the store has to order in for me because they don't have them in stock. #TeamWeirdfeet
