Dog magnet.
Have you ever seen something this tiny and cute?
He’s a baby black capped chickadee and don’t worry I put him back so his parents could take care of him.
I desperately needed tonight. It was very good.

One of my coworkers returned to his computer and found this as his wallpaper.
I nearly cried laughing because it was done remotely and that’s such a nerdy IT prank to pull.
Stupid things that I let bother me too much #4528:
A professor of mine noticed my ring during an out of class function and asked if I was engaged. After smiling and saying yes he went on a little rant that i’ll paraphrase: “holy fuck that’s a big diamond. You’re smart to decide to marry a rich boy. My daughters are stupid and are dating musicians who could never afford a ring like that. Wow that must have cost SO much money.”
Point of my story is that it made me feel really self conscious about something I absolutely shouldn’t feel self conscious about. Including tons of unnecessary worries about other people judging me about the size of the ring.
Even if what he said had been true: no need to be rude about it. A simple “congrats” or “cool” would have sufficed.
Furthermore: its a 3/4 carat heirloom diamond, that’s not obscenely big.
But really, he is The Best.
My desk just got a thousand times better with the addition of a closet plant in a yellow pot.
My girl.
I am about to be sappy and whiney.
Being engaged is awesome. It is. But man, I would really just like to end up at the same house at the end of the night and it’s just not possible yet. Can’t we jut fast forward to the part where we get married and live together in the house we bought together, or the apartment we decided wasn’t the worst thing ever, or the bed of his truck if times get real rough?
Ill just let this photo of Oliver explain how excited I was about waking up this morning.
