Elizabeth of the Library

Not her real name. But it’s funny that is the one I randomly chose.

My child caught me up on the third grade gossip today. Names changed to protect the innocent.
Chloe likes Brian. Brian like Maisy. Maisy likes “several people”.

Earthquake!!!!

As neither a fan of rap/r&b or someone familiar with Bad Bunny or a Spanish speaker, I still loved that half time show. Very fun. Also Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.

That Claude AI ad just confirmed my desire to not use AI which I don’t think was the point.

Watching the Super Bowl pre game show. It has Green Day and Brandi Carlile and that’s the only part of today I’m excited for. I’m not a football fan. I’m not opposed to Bad Bunny, just not my style of music.

It should not take a court order to get a toddler out of a prison.

That’s an amazing story. Thanks for sharing.

Local journalism is so important.

8 year old is also very unhappy that Hamilton “cheated on Eliza with her?”

We have been showing our daughters Hamilton. 8 year old is struggling with the fiction versus non fiction line. She has lots of great questions “How long was George Washington President?” And after sadly learning the founding fathers didn’t rap, “how much of it did they sing in real life?”

Raising warrior women.

Sleeping in while your kids are up and able to get their own Saturday breakfast is lovely.

Being up first and having peace with your cat and coffee and book is also lovely.

In my defense I had not been asked to calculate either the area or circumference of a circle in a long time and I got them mixed up.

I’m so sorry

Helping my kiddo with math. She’s in the advanced class and doing amazing. I’m not positive I’m going to pass as my advice has led her astray a time or two.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Used a sharpie to write my mom’s phone number on my arm and headed down to the protest.

Happy ADHD Saturday.
Started by folding laundry
Realized my drawers won’t hold my clothes and half of them don’t fit.
Emptied out all my drawers to sort them.
The movie I put on to watch is about to end and I’m losing all motivation for this project.

Honestly lack of fore sight on our part

We explained the concept of Rick Rolling to our 8 year old and played Never Gonna Let You Down for her. She legitimately fell in love with the song and plays it all the time now.

I’m late to the Heated Rivalry show. Just finished episode 2. Admittedly know nothing about Hockey. Is it early for them to be team captains so early in their career? I thought it was a thing for older players.

Yesterday had the most records of any day this winter in Alaska. 🥳 @alaskawx.bsky.social

Watched Jurassic Park with the girls. They were amazed to recognize The Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) in it. They’re huge Wicked fans.
“But how did they make him look so young?”
Well they did it by making the movie when he was 30 years younger.

Sitting in the pickup line to get kiddo and carpool kids after middle school sports. It’s -9. Maybe 1/4th of the middle schoolers are in coats.

I can not get the vinyl to transfer. I’m a very mediocre cricut crafter.

Finished a romance and started reading Katabasis by R. F. Kuang. I had to look up a word (votary) in the first sentence.

Just like the Good Old Days - Seth Boyer and Marian Call YouTube video by Marian Call

It's Denali. Hope this one makes the next album. @mariancall.bsky.social w/ Kelsey Riker & Cate Ross at Amalga.

He’s sending me photos. There’s 75+people there (he was counting white elephant presents) and it’s jam packed in there.

It would be my scene another time but we have already done two holiday markets, a holiday event with the Girl Scouts, archery lessons, and Santa photos today.

Ambivert married to an extrovert. My husband has reminded me no less than four times that we are invited to an ugly holiday sweater party tonight. He’s so happy to go alone but doesn’t want me to feel left out.
I’m good babe. We have done four other holiday activities today. I’ll stay with the kids
