It's 5am and instead of sleeping I have been starting a teeny tiny quilt as a mock up for a full size one. (Each square on the cutting surface is 1 square inch, for reference. This is gonna be a real little teeny tiny quilt.) It's a little busy color-wise but I'm still pleased with it in general. I've never made a proper quilt before so this is a lil spooky
last night at work a woman called into the store to ask if we could blow up some balloons for her for her son’s 18th birtdhay and i said sure, it was about 30 minutes until i was supposed to leave but i figured eh if i leave late, i leave late, that’s fine. so she comes in, says all the other stores she called or went to wouldn’t do it because it was too late or apparently the manager at a different store just... didn't want? to?? w/e anyway so she comes to the dept and one of the guys calls me bc apparently according to him “all of us can do it, but some of us are better at it than others” and he’s absolutely right, i am better at it than others, but ANYWAY
so woman wants a bunch of blue balloons and a happy birthday balloon and is asking if we have any large “it’s a boy” balloons and i’m getting suspicious cuz i’d just seen like 3 posts about parents having gender reveal parties for their grown trans kids and i’m like is this what’s happening here? is she gonna tell me or no? i have like 2 rainbow pins on my work apron so it’s not like i’m not broadcasting a queer friendly vibe here
so finally as i’m blowing them up she says “i flew home a day early and his father is coming home from a business trip to surprise him. it’s my son’s 18th birthday. it’s his first birthday as arthur instead of hannah and we really want to make it special. he hasn’t wanted to celebrate his birthday for years because of family who didn’t understand and we want him to know how proud we are of him” and
guys
i almost cried on the spot
she kept thanking me because we were the last place she could get balloons and she was so grateful that i did it for her and i was like
i mean it’s part of my job so i had to but also i was so pleased to be able to help her do this?? i hope she tells her kid that the girl at the grocery store said “i hope ARTHUR has a fantastic birthday” cuz i keep thinking about this 18 year old kid who’s gonna get surprised with balloons and flowers and his DAD who he didn’t think he’d see for a little while and have both of his parents telling him “we love you, we’re proud of you, you’re our son” and i’m just so glad this kid has such supportive and validating parents
Re-watching Game of Thrones Season 1 and good lord Sansa is a bad bitch starting early. Joffrey says, "after I kill your traitor brother, I'll give you his head" and Sansa answers, "or maybe he'll give me yours" and if that isn't the most badass thing she could possibly have said.... And then of course she almost pushes him off the ledge to his probable death and is only stopped by the Hound who has anticipated her plan and stopped her for her own sake.
It's no wonder she's my favorite character now.
sometimes self care is deciding to solve a cold case from the 1980s at 2am and compiling all the facts and questions and connections on a legal pad with a ballpoint pen
There's a tragic and poetic irony to the fact that the only time I have the mental Energy to write, the second I open my computer it shuts down IMMEDIATELY like thanks dude guess I don't get to be creative right now
I haven't watched Dickinson and I don't really plan to, because I fundamentally disagree with changing the character of real people just to make a supposedly more fun, more exciting plot. Emily Dickinson was a person and she had a personality and she wasn't the kind of wild, openly rebellious, crazy woman that the show gives us. She was revolutionary and groundbreaking in her own, quiet, unambitious way and that's fine. The show is just supporting the idea that being loud and rebellious and unfeminine is the only way for a woman to be important. By rewriting her, they're saying that it's not okay to be quiet and traditionally feminine. It's that stupid, faux-feminist idea that if you don't totally subvert all the traits of traditional femininity, you're weak or shallow. It's so annoying that people are hopping on the bandwagon with this. Stop rewriting historical figures and especially leave Emily Dickinson alone.
Just got pulled over for the first time in my life... Because I pulled out of the grocery store parking lot across the street from my home without my lights on (oops) because it's such a short drive home that I forgot?? but he let me off so woohoo
boyfriend and I went to a friendsgiving tonight and one friend asked what we want to do with our lives and boyfriend explained our long-term plans and then said "we want to have kids at some point" and friend asked "do you want to get married and everything" and boyfriend said "yeah but I gotta get a better job first"
It's the first time I've ever heard him tell anyone else that he wants to marry me and have kids with me, because we've talked about it and about spending the rest of our lives together but I've never heard him say "we want to have kids" to someone else before...
He also told me that I can have "whatever kind of wedding" I want but he "doesn't get big expensive weddings" which is great cuz neither do I but more importantly
