Starry Time Mastodon:
one of my coworkers brought her (delightful, sweet, well trained) dog to our meeting today -- the best!
we do not deserve dogs 🥹 🐶
my mom really wanted gefilte fish for #passover so we bought some.
Friends, she had approximately 3 pieces, which is fine.
what isn't fine is now I have a nearly full jar of gefilte fish in *my* fridge & she's back home in New England.
anyway -- happy Passover!
the dental hygienist today told me during my cleaning I had beautiful teeth twice -- so ... 😁

me: do you ever feel like one of your fingers looks like it belongs on a different hand--like it's different from the vibe of your other fingers?
my partner: ... no?
me: huh.
all the people in my house have fallen asleep for impromptu naps -- i am choosing to not take it personally 😄
i don't much care for thumb-holes on my jackets/sweatshirts.
i said what i said.
me, having an issue with a third-party vendor website at work.
admin assistant (helpfully): you can always call
me: I'm a millennial -- i don't make phone calls unless absolutely necessary... and even then I will avoid it for as long as humanly possible 😂😂😂
Watching the #Celtics game with my mom, who has been a #basketball fan for a LONG time, but doesn't watch a lot in the current era...
her, just now, commentating on the game: you don't win the game with 3 point shots!
me, to my sister: who's gonna tell her?
whoever designed the commercial break music for #Peacock #Basketball coverage--i have notes...

... I WANT TO ITCH MY ITCHY HANDS SO BAD...
[thank you for listening. i have really sensitive skin, and I used some hand sanitizer at work that caused my hands to break out in hives. i should've known better and used my personal stash, but alas... ITCH].
my friend: the drinks here are strong -- they bring the entire martini shaker over if you order a martini.
me: I will have a martini
me 1.5 hours later: yep, you were right. i'm drunk 🥂 (and grateful for my DD 🙂 )
why do i only ever need to hold the door shut to lock it when I have my hands full 😄
my partner & I were watching #StarTrekTNG in so we can listen to the next @humanisttrek@trekkies.social episode during our weekend cooking.
Since Dr. Crusher sat next to Riker at the end of the episode, it raised an *important* topic of discussion -- who are you sitting next to on the bridge???
Data? Wesley? Geordi (remember back when he was on the bridge?)? Riker? Picard? Troi? Or, ofc, between Riker & Troi?
I kno it's old, but whoever pitched "Big Lipinski" should get a raise 😄
