Setting: Drivin’ south on I-5 yesterday afternoon. I stop to fuel my pickup and get sumna drink. Cashier gal: You’re from Texas, aren’t you? Me: Yes ma’am, originally. Cashier gal: (smiles) I can tell. It’s your manners. Me: Thank ya. Glad that shows. The moment I open my mouth, ya know anyway.

Currently lamenting the heat in the forecast for the week I’m finna spend in Atlanta. Ugh.

One last vacay pic. For the moment.

I like this vacation.

Been a real nice day doin’ chilly things. Chillin’, I guess.

He would have been 53 today.

I am exhausted by life and would like to be touched and held and pampered a bit and maybe my scalp massaged pls and thanks

I reckon this surprises absolutely no one.

Smells like Iniki up in here.

I am very clearly eating my stresses. Pls feed me.

September usedta be my mating season.

I have just had my own weird cultural history laid bare by my response to the question “Do you consider maple syrup a fall flavor?” I feel…exposed, but resolute in my views.

Maybe I shouldn’t admit this, but I can’t recall the last time a man came in my mouth.

The fella next to me at the coffee shop was kinda handsome and he was checkin’ me out while I waited for my order. If he’d asked, I woulda.

I’d like to speak to the grim reaper’s manager.

New mission for everyone: Be the Dolly you wanna see in the world.

What an international tragedy to lose the incomparable treasure that Dolly Parton is. The world just got measurably worse.

I needa take new pictures for…profiles and stuff.

So saturated with color, it’s hard to photograph.

Two things: 1. It blows my mind how hard speech to text struggles with my accent sometimes. 2. Considering shearing my hair off completely to a short buzz. Do we think I should go for it Y/N?

My black(ish) orchid is in flower.

Dressed for w*rk.

I…need a boy to practice kissing with.

Y’all. I grew a buncha basil over the winter. It’s time to make room for spring sowing, so I harvested it all and made homemade basil pesto for the first time ever.

Highlights from wandering outside yesterday - Crocus, wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox), and witch hazel.

I may actually be decoratin’ my place?

My plant shelves are a bit of a mess…but a pretty mess.

It’s that time. Be good gays and theys and do yer labs.
