I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm sorry, Dana. Drew Brees, though.

I'm conflicted over this reveal that you cannot make your trombone sad, Jesse

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My coworker logged into the 7AM morning 10 minutes late, right before her time to speak, and helpfully informed us that the reason she was late was because she was still sleeping and forgot about the meeting.

Perfect.

Me too! I mean, I could make it happen, but haven't yet. Suddenly one day a few months ago, I was like "WAIT! Sad trombone! What is that even???" so I asked my friend and she pointed out the need for a mute.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

And there's always packing a suitcase and walking out the door.

Take your kids. Do not let them be subject to her abuse.

Yeah, worth it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Do cowgirl hats work as trombone mutes?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

So I had an incredibly fun morning.

First, Alexa was an asshole to me. (I asked "Alexa, will it rain today?" and she responded in her snottiest robot voice "It is raining right now" with the unspoken "stupid human" loud and clear. This is how the robot uprising begins.)

Then, I realized as my train pulled into Grand Central that my wallet was back at home. I can make do with just my phone, but not having access to my cash or MetroCard is anxiety-producing.

Someone at work said there was an Uber strike today. That's going to make getting downtown for class without a MetroCard even MORE FUN.

Then my work computer locked me out for no good reason. I eventually got my account unlocked but I GET IT TECHNOLOGY, YOU HATE ME TODAY.

And this crappy summer weather in October is giving me a sinus headache.

HOW IS EVERYBODY ELSE THIS FINE MORNING?

I actually think I got rid of that hat in one of my moves! So I can't test it.

Better than that, man! Yikes.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Why is it summer in October? No, don't answer, I'm already depressed enough. The liriope bloomed twice this year! It's supposed to bloom once, in spring. I've never seen it bloom twice.

Can we cancel the rest of today and go back to bed? Don't tell Alexa. We don't need more of her attitude.

The only good this about this stupid warm spell is that my garden looks amazing. The roses and hibiscus are blissfully ignorant that it's supposed to be fall right now.
